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.

A lovely experience, especially for someone who appreciates the beauty of nature. A wake up call from lorikeets the calming night sounds of owls hooting, and the slow rustle of the trees in the breeze. The rooms are kept neat and tidy, and breakfast can be gluten free and vegan, all diets catered. Fantastic when you just need a couple of days break from the City!

My mother in law - who visits us in Avoca Beach regularly from Canada - won a two night stay at Riley's when she attended a local fundraiser. She decided to take my six year old so they could have some one on one time before she returned to Canada. Their host Sheldon went out of his way to make it an amazing visit. We were impressed by the spacious and comfortable room, the lounge and the dining room, the view and how welcome and taken care of Sheldon helped them to feel. Lovely breakfasts too! Thanks so much to Riley's for your generosity and also for a prize that wasn't just a two night stay but the full Riley's experience.

Don't expect manicured gardens, nor windows without cobwebs. On arrival down a VERY steep and windy drive, the property is painted grey, looks unwelcoming, and uncared for and quite desolate. But once through the doors, the interior is immaculate. The room was clean, airy and very tidy and provided all one's needs - right down to an iron and ironing board and decent coffee (something I found really difficult to source in OZ). The linen was good quality and nicely pressed. Sliding doors lead to a shared verandah looking over and into a variety of native trees and shrubs; it felt like being in a tree house. Breakfast was continental however there was also the option of a cooked breakfast too. This could be eaten in the guest lounge/dining room or on the verandah outside one's room. Here, cockatoo's and larakeets also come to join you. The host, Sheldon, was very helpful and couldn't do enough for us. Price wise, you get what you pay for - this was worth it. So if you are looking for an escape from the cacaphony, hustle and bustle and/or oppressiveness of Sydney (or any other similar place) swap it for the cacaphony of a wonderful dawn chorus followed by peace and solitude surrounded by nature here, because this really is a lovely getaway place. With only three double rooms and a separate family "lodge" it is very tranquil - an ideal place to while away the hours and reflect on life. Not good for young families as there is no where to play other than in the overgrown natural vegetation or the lounge. You will need a car as there is not much in the immediate locale (great!) apart from a very good restaurant next door. There is nothing I can comment on that I didn't like - I loved the whole place and if I am back in the area this is one place I would quite happily come back to (assuming the standard remains) - so highly and happily recommended.

My Husband and I had the pleasure of staying at Riley's Bed & Breakfast for our wedding night! Sheldon the owner went above and beyond for us from sorting out a romantic room, helping us book dinner at Bombini, and making us our breakfast the next morning. Highly recommend the b&b as it was peaceful, very clean, and beautiful view! We will be heading back there again :)

My husband & I are local to the Central Coast & thought we would check out Riley's B&B for an overnight stay / mini break. Sheldon was the perfect host with just the right balance of being helpful but not intrusive. Our B&B experience was relaxing & felt quite private... I would definitely stay again. The room was spotless, modern & spacious with a very comfortable bed (most important!). In the evening we got a taxi to Terrigal which has a number of bars & restaurants & is a 5 minute drive away. It was lovely to have nice lie in the next morning & we didn't hear any noise from the other guests. Sheldon topped the experience off with a delicious breakfast.
