Customer Testimonials

Just had my daughters 5th birthday party at the Dava in the rainbow room... everything was perfect- the food for the kids and the adults was delicious, the staff were an absolute pleasure and the kids and parents had a ball! The staff organised everything and it was amazing value for money!
Belle Stubbings, Mornington

I had my 40th Birthday at the Dava on the upstairs deck and function room. Everything was perfect, from my first email asking a million questions to the last. The functions manager went above and beyond to make sure ALL my answers and requests were fulfilled. On the night, bar staff made awesome drinks and the food platters were freshly made all with great flavours and more than plenty for everyone. Thank you to everyone at the Dava who helped make my night one of the best birthdays I’ve ever had. Highly recommend the venue
Christine Simmonds, Mount Martha

I had my 21st birthday party at the Dava's upstairs deck and function room. I had a fantastic night that I will always look back on with amazing memories. Narelle, the events manager, was wonderful and organised and so knowledgeable about all things from food to bar tab to budgets and decorations. The bar staff were friendly and helpful on the night, and the security were fantastic at ensuring everything ran smoothly. The room and deck itself is very spacious with plenty of room for a dance-floor and for tables and chairs. The staff were very helpful at supplying equipment for decorations and photo-slideshows. The food was fantastic, filling and generous, and catered for many dietary requirements. It was above and beyond my expectations and everyone I spoke to was very impressed with the platters. I would highly recommend having a birthday party at the Dava, they take great care of their guests and exceeded all my expectations. It was amazing to be able to relax and enjoy my party with my family and friends, without having to worry or stress about anything!!
