Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

It's located right at the end of an estate. I say its in the bushes because it's close to the Reserve. I didn't go to the reserve but had seen several people coming and going from it. It is close to city centre and supermarkets. The estate is quiet and just like a townhouse.

The units are 2-bedrooms, 1 ensuite and a bathroom/toilet. The amenities are new so very good to use. They have foxtel. They provided washing machine and washing powder which helped a lot (especially for longer than 2 days stay). The single garage is rather small. My 4WD couldn't fit (too long) but plenty of parking in the estate so that was good.

There was no faulting the accommodation. We had a wonderful two bedroom, two bathroom unit with a comfortable lounge / dining area and a kitchen with everything you would need to prepare your own meals. We even had our own lock-up garage. The beds were comfortable and the water pressure in the shower amazing. The tap water did smell of chlorine, so we opted to use bottled water for drinking. The only negatives were the distance of the apartment from town and that it was located next to the water treatment plant. For a one night stay I would be unlikely to stay here again, but if I found myself in Emerald for more than a couple of nights, this would be the perfect place.

Omg!! From the minute you open the door you won’t regret staying here!! The villas are like a 2 bedroom house, each with their own bathroom/en-suite. Full kitchen with a great range of utensils etc and a full sized fridge. Garage even comes with a remote making it so easy to park the car.
Villas are at the end of a quiet street so a great night sleep was guaranteed!!

Villas on Rivergum was a great place to stay in Emerald. I wouldn't stay anywhere else. It is in the suburbs so quiet, no large trucks or noisy motorcycles. Apartments are spacious and comfortable with the added benefit of a single garage, laundry & yard. Our apartment was spotless and the staff were genuine and helpful.

We stayed as an overnight stop on our way out west.
The staff were friendly and efficient.
The rooms were modern, clean and the lay out made for a very comfortable stop.
We were so impressed we booked a night for our return trip

It is a little out of town, but easy access to the town centre

The lock up garage was a bonus.
We would recommend for a one night or longer stay.

Outstanding value for money. Villas on Rivergum had everything a traveller could want. We self catered and appreciated the fully equipped kitchen - no dinky little fridge or 2 burner cooktop in our capacious man cave. Amanda really looked after us and was friendly and helpful. It was about 40 years since I had driven through Emerald and I was very surprised. Traffic jams and prosperity. Being a bit out of the buzz of the CBD was quiet.

Great villa which is modern and was well appointed. Two bedrooms one with ensuite. Fully functional kitchen and laundry and single lockup garage. Short walk to bush reserve and short drive to the central highlands shopping centre which has a Woolworths and Big W. Will definitely use this place again

We were so impressed with Villas on river gum. The fact we had a remote controlled garage that opened directly into the unit. Very safe & just like staying at home. A 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom villa with a small outdoor area.
We were sent a confirmation text the day before & as our plane was delayed, I sent them a text to let the villas know. They then told us the combination of the safety box with our keys inside. All very easy.
The rooms were very clean & seemed almost brand new.

It isnt in town, so you do need a car for the 5 min drive in, but that was fine with us.
Well worth staying here.

Nice quiet area. Large apartments with great kitchen. Has outdoor area off from the kitchen. Own garage but if you have large vehicle there is plenty of carparking onsite. We had a two bedroom. Both with queen beds and en-suite. Would highly recommend. Staff are very helpful
