Riva-La-Vista-Cooktown offers accommodations in Cooktown, 1.4 miles from Finch Bay Beach. There's a private entrance at the guest house for the convenience of those who stay.

It is an amazing place to stay. The property is reasonably tucked away with a beautiful view of the bay. It was spotless, quiet, cosy and just a lovely place to chill out. The owners, Ricky & Terry are lovely. They are friendly and gave us a good, friendly welcome. There are only two rooms, making it very private. Each room has a TV and its own separate bathroom and there is a combined kitchen with all the appliances needed for cooking, including a BBQ. There is also a large TV in the lounge/open area with comfortable seats to relax and take in the view. The room was spotless and the beds very comfortable. The parking is next to the house and is secure. The decor of the property is quaint and it makes you feel like you are on vacation. I loved it too as it is only a two minute drive from both the lookout at the top of the hill and from the nearest shops. Oh yes, if you like motorbikes, then Ricky is the man to talk to!

    Friendly, informative, generous hosts who always had time for a chat no matter how busy they were. Well presented units. Quiet location within easy reach of town. Fabulous undercover area with all cooking facilities, etc, large enough to use by a group but with plenty of space to stay private if you want. We'll happily return when next in Cooktown. Thanks for the gluten free slice!
