We were more than impressed with the Boatel on Lake Mulwala. Knowing the old hotel, I knew the stay could go either way. However, we were incredibly impressed over and over again. Phil, one of the owners, greeted us over the phone during check-in after we arrived late, making the process quick and easy. He was accommodating every step of the way, and you can tell he cares about his guest's experience. The room was much larger and more comfortable than the photo's do justice. The furniture and beds were very comfortable, and our bedroom and main lounge room had excellent air conditioners, which were a must for us. The Boatel is a renovated older hotel, meaning it is not a Sebel or a Hilton. However, it is a waterfront gem close to town, with care put into every detail, including the heated pool with day beds that are very comfortable. We will be back to stay every time we are in town.

If there was one thing at all, seagulls can be noisy in the morning when you sleep in. But if that's what you're going to complain about, there are some great gratitude exercises that can be found easily online these days.

A lot of improvements have been made. The pool is fantastic, which we really appreciated on a very hot afternoon. The staff were all very friendly especially the owner. The balconies over looking the lake are great and it is in within walking distance to all of the major clubs.

My only recommendation would be to add extra towels for the pool. We didn't bring extra towels, which meant that we had to use the same towels. Not really a big deal but I would have bought one from home had I realised. Maybe even leave them at the office, where they need to be checked in and out. Otherwise we were very happy.

Phil and the team have put a lot of love and care into the refurbishment of this property, and it shows! Phil was welcoming and friendly on arrival and nothing was too much of an issue. The pool area is amazing - there’s even power points for the outdoor lounges! The view from the balcony is idyllic and the beautiful local birds give you a show at sunset. Great BBQ area with tennis courts and putt putt, too! I recommend taking a walk over to Yarrawonga at sunrise or sunset :)

Location facilities and comfort is all very good, it is still on the way to getting well setup so it's not quite a serviced apartment like a hotel yet. No daily clean or room service. No shampoo or body wash etc but upon request they were granted.

The portacot was there but not clean or usable so had to buy my own but that's not necessarily a negative as most people carry theirs.

The location & access to Yarrawonga and Mulwala were great. Views were incredible. The apartment was spacious. Even the carpark had a view of the lake! Checking in was simple & likewise with checking out. Very seamless process. We came during the off season so it was very quiet, unsure about noise levels during Summer/ Autumn

One minor issue we found was the coffee plunger. It was a bit small for use for two people.

Friendly staff, Phil was very welcoming and friendly. The cleanliness was impeccable and the space in our apartment was more than ample. It was comfortable with a lovely view, quiet, relaxing and the kitchen and bathroom had everything we needed! We loved our stay and have already rebooked!

The mattress needs a soft topper on it to make it even better!

Great Location to all the Clubs in Mulwala. Rooms (apartments) great with everything you need, even the sofa bed was complimented on being great! Staff Fantastic and very helpful

Afterhours access - front gate lock was a little sticky to work took a few tries, but other than that was great - would definitely stay again!

Great location and very helpful, friendly staff. Comfortable and well equipped apartment.

Quite noisy as location is close to a lot of other accommodation also overlooks the lake and ground floor apartments can hear all movement in the apartments above.

The location, views and staff were amazing. Well done Phil and team on presenting a fabulous property. The in room amenities were amazing and we could not have asked for more. The renovated pool area was awesome. Oh and those views…..simply stunning.

Nothing.
