A 3-bedroom rural retreat with resort style living
Our stay was superb! The amenities were brilliant, and it was the perfect place for a relaxing weekend away. Everything was so well provided, and it’s clear they have really thought of everything. The view, spa and sauna were definite highlights. The host was very easy to reach and incredibly communicative, making our experience even better. Highly recommend.

Limpinwood Cottage 2484, Amazing Mountain Views
Our primary reason for this visit was to relax and we couldn't have found a nicer place to do it. The surroundings are stunning, the gardens beautifully kept and the accommodation was very comfortable. The outdoor deck was huge and most conducive to just admiring the views and watching the local wildlife. The spa and sauna were the icing on an already gorgeous cake. Margaret and Chris were the perfect hosts, giving us total privacy but were there whenever we needed anything. We ended up doing very little local sightseeing as we were so reluctant to leave the comfort of the property. All in all, probably one of the best Airbnb's we have experienced, for so many reasons. Thank You Margaret and Chris for your magnificent hospitality and we'd like to think that we'll meet you both again some day.

Cascade Springs
We had the most wonderful weekend at Cascade Springs! The cabin was incredibly cozy and welcoming, nestled in stunning natural surroundings. Soaking in the outdoor hot tub was pure bliss, peaceful and serene, with the lush rainforest as our backdrop. The bed and lounge were super comfy, and the cabin had everything we needed to feel right at home. The indoor fireplace added the perfect touch of warmth and charm. Breakfast was absolutely delicious, and the espresso machine brewed barista quality coffee every time. We absolutely loved our stay and couldn’t recommend this gorgeous cabin at Cascade Springs more highly! Thanks for having us! We'll be back!

Murphy's Country Accommodation in the Scenic Rim
Murphy’s Cottage in Tamrookum is set in a peaceful and serene location. The fireplace and fire pit were perfect for the chilly afternoons and evenings while the back deck was a calming and relaxing spot for that warming morning cup of coffee. The kitchen is extremely well equipped and the BBQ makes is easy to self- cater for the weekend. Short drives through the beautiful countryside to Rathdowney and Boonah make this an ideal location for day trips. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this charming country cottage.

Surfers Paradise Beachstyle Cottage
Lovely cottage. Hosts were very easy to contact and provided very clear instructions about the home. Very clean and plenty of extras provided such as coffee pods, milk, butter, raisin toast, washing powder, soap and shampoo. Lovely to have fans in all of the rooms. Pool was very well maintained and the garden was very pretty. Comfy bedding and beds. Plenty of supplies for our puppy including water and food bowls and some pet toys and blankets. We had a great time staying here. 2 minute drive to the local Woolworths which was very handy and also a short drive to the theme parks.

Clayfield Cottage on acreage, 10 minutes to beach
Angela and Damien were the perfect hosts, warm, welcoming, and incredibly helpful. They gave us the space to fully relax and enjoy their gorgeous property in peaceful solitude, while still being available if we needed anything. Then there’s Clayfield Cottage… WOW. This beautifully reformed 1920s cottage is a true gem. Angela and Damien have done an exceptional job preserving the charm and character of the original home while adding thoughtful touches that make it feel both timeless and comfortable. It truly feels like stepping back in time, but with all the modern comforts. The cottage itself is stunning, nestled in the serenity of Tallebudgera, and just a short drive from the breathtaking Gold Coast beaches. It’s the ideal retreat for anyone looking to unwind, recharge, and soak in the beauty of the area. Thank you, Angela and Damien, for sharing your pride and joy with us. We’ll absolutely be back. 🙏🙏🙏

The cottage was beautiful. So many thoughtful touches. We loved the spray for the pillows, and all of the throws to keep warm. It was so nice to sit on the deck and watch the birds. Very peaceful and relaxing. Would highly recommend! Thanks Shelley!

Dragonfly Cottage Springbrook
Fantastic peaceful location, easy walk to cafes and hiking trails. House was clean and comfortable with everything we needed for a self-catering family getaway.

The Creek Cottage-Findon Farm 1.5 hrs from Ballina
We had an amazing time at this beautiful cottage. We spent four nights in this gorgeous Airbnb and loved every minute of it. The cottage exceeded our expectations. You can tell that Julie and Darren have considered every small detail and poured so much love into decorating the space. We spent our days sitting on the grass listening to the creek, and evenings around the fire pit or relaxing in the incredible bathtub overlooking the trees. It was the perfect peaceful escape, and we’re so grateful we got to experience it. I would highly recommend this Airbnb to anyone. If you’re thinking of booking this cottage, you won’t be disappointed!

Black Cockatoo Cottage
Jane's cottage is amazing , it's like home away from home. It has everything you could possibly need and more. My partner and I loved the arcade table. Everything was immaculate. Jane was very accommodating! Absolutely no faults we would definitely book again😍

Guest house
The Guest House had everything we needed plus more. Len and Anne were amazing hosts making us feel very welcome. The fruit bowl and eggs were an absolute bonus. Highly recommend and great value for money. We would love to stay again given the opportunity.

Aetos
We loved the place! The view is sensational, both from the balcony and the bedroom window. I even had the chance to see the most beautiful rainbow of my life. The area is very private and incredibly cozy, and the house has everything you need. Amy, was always very attentive and kind. We really enjoyed it.
