40th Birthday Party · 70 guests · January 2026
Great venue!! All guests said the venue was great. The layout at Portland Heights was just right. Good service and helpful staff on the night who met our needs. Extend thanks to the reception team also, not forgetting Jacob and Lester for all their help in making this possible. Would definitely hire again. Thank you

50th Birthday Party · 100 guests · September 2024
Everything. There is nothing I can fault. From the moment I enquired and speaking to Jacob, the level of professionalism was top tier. Jacob was super helpful and always happy to answer questions, going above and beyond to assist with my mums party. My sister went to view the venue and was so pleased with how friendly Jacob was and his willingness to bring our vision to life. On the day of the event Mitch was amazing, very reassuring and friendly and ensured everything ran smoothly. The guests were so pleased and everyone ran seamlessly. The venue itself was gorgeous! The decor was spectacular and everything we asked for was delivered. Cannot have asked for a better experience!

We hosted our annual staff conference here for 155 ish people. The communication with Jacob from day 1 of organising was absolutely flawless. He responded quickly and was so helpful, a real pleasure to work with. Totally put our minds at ease. The day was seamless, all staff were fantastic. The food was great and everyone had a fun time! Thank you Jacob & co :D
