The Hillside Retreat sits on the eastern edge of Tamborine Mountain, looking down the valley.
On a clear morning you can watch the sun come up over the Gold Coast from the verandah.
Surfers Paradise is a 30-minute drive and Brisbane about an hour. Up here it stays private, secluded and quiet.
The gum trees are full of birds and wildlife, and the spa is heated year-round.
Our family home, with coastal views from the living room and a kitchen open to it, so whoever is cooking stays part of the conversation. The wraparound verandah has a gas BBQ for dinners outside.
A self-contained retreat with its own entry and a private courtyard for morning coffee or a glass of wine under the stars. Most of our villa guests are couples, and there's a wood fireplace for cold mountain nights.
For larger groups and families, a connecting door joins the House and Villa into one retreat for up to eight guests. To book the combination, get in touch with us directly.

“Rowena even showed me a resident koala with her umbrella when I first arrived which was sensational. Even kindling for the fire so it started so easily. Felt very welcome and enjoyed every minute.”
We can't wait to welcome you to The Hillside Retreat.
