Our second stay at River Cabana and it was amazing like the first time. A great place to relax and unwind, listening and seeing all the wildlife. We were lucky enough to see numerous birds, kangaroos, bunnies and even a fox! Fabia is a great and welcoming host.

So many good things to say about this cabana! So quiet and peaceful with amazing sunrises and sunsets while still being so close to Margaret River and the nearby beaches. Maybe the only thing better than the cabana was the kindness and care of the hosts, who made us feel so very welcome and cared for during our stay. It could not have been a smoother check-in and check-out process while making sure we had everything we needed for our stay.

Close to nature

Fabia made us feel very welcome and we loved the homemade bread. The pool was an added bonus and we loved the quirkyness of the accomodation. A short drive to town and not far to the beaches.

We absolutely loved staying here. Fabia greeted us on arrival and during our stay she presented us with home made bread and honey that my husband loved. We loved the solitude and peace around us and will book to stay again loved every minute.
