  • A full kitchen and dining space

  • Laundry facilities

  • Comfortable lounge areas

  • Large bathrooms, many with spa baths

  • Private balconies, many offering river or garden views


Boathouse Resort Facilities That Enhance Your Stay

While the appeal of the surrounding environment is strong, guests also appreciate the onsite facilities, including:


  • A large swimming pool with sandpit

  • BBQ area

  • Lush, manicured gardens

  • Secure parking

  • Lift access


Note: These are self-contained apartments and not part of a hotel style accommodation. Linen, tea, coffee and milk is provided in the apartments. A supermarket is a short drive away, and restaurants and cafes walking distance.

Step out of your apartment and you’re just a short stroll from Tea Gardens' café strip, local shopping boutiques, and stunning sunrises if you are an early bird.


The Myall River walkway, directly opposite the Boathouse, is a scenic water walk along the river that runs toward the Singing Bridge and beyond into Hawks Nest. It’s perfect for morning strolls, bird watching, or a coffee at the Boatshed cafe and restaurant.
