We had a wonderful stay at this family-friendly resort that truly caters to families with young children. The facilities, especially the pool and playground, were perfect for our kids, allowing them to enjoy their time while we relaxed. The location near the river and within walking distance of shops and parks was fantastic. However, the mirror dilemma in the bathroom was a minor inconvenience, and we would have loved a full-length mirror in the bedroom. Overall, we would definitely recommend this place for a family vacation!

I had an excellent overnight stay at Riverside! The room was tastefully furnished, clean, and had all the facilities like tea and coffee. The only downside was the low mirror in the bathroom. However, the attention the team gives to their guests really made this place stand out. Overall, if I could give more than 10 stars, I definitely would.

I had a mixed experience during my stay. On one hand, the units were well-equipped and the facilities were great, making for a comfortable environment. On the other hand, I was disappointed that only the main bed was made up and I had to clean before leaving, especially considering the price. While the location was fantastic, I'm not sure I would return based solely on this experience.

I had an amazing stay at Riverside Resort Urunga, a beautiful oasis where my family could relax and unwind. The location is perfect, right across from the river and next door to a fantastic golf club. The kids had a blast with so many activities available, and the views from our apartment were breathtaking. The only downside was that our week went by too quickly, and I could have stayed much longer!

My stay at the resort was absolutely wonderful! The location is beautiful, nestled by the river and surrounded by nature. The units are clean, spacious, and well-equipped for a more home-like experience, perfect for both families and friends. The highlight for me was the fantastic staff who truly go above and beyond. The only downside is that some units face a road which can bring in a bit of noise during peak times, but it didn’t take away from the overall tranquility of the area.
