Sunshine Coast Hinterland

Farm Stay

Seven Peaks Farm Stay

Escape to 34 acres of pristine Australian bushland in the Sunshine Coast Hinterland, where six luxury cabins and a family cottage offer breathtaking views of the Glass House Mountains. Just an hour from Brisbane and minutes from Australia Zoo, this tranquil farm stay invites guests to reconnect with nature while enjoying farm experiences and modern comforts.

Cottage

Bendles Cottages

Self-contained garden cottages in the Sunshine Coast hinterland, positioned centrally between the villages of Maleny and Montville. Each is appointed for a couples' escape — spa, fireplace, king bed — with the accent squarely on romance and rejuvenation. A pause button for the hinterland.

Boutique Hotel

Karma Suites Montville

Luxury suites in the heart of Montville, a village in the Sunshine Coast hinterland. The rooms trade on serenity and long views out over the countryside — a peaceful base for slowing down. Central enough to wander the village on foot.

Eco Resort

Kondalilla Eco Resort

Set on twenty-two acres of Sunshine Coast hinterland rainforest, right at the entrance to Kondalilla Falls National Park and a few kilometres from the village of Montville. Accommodation is individually designed and scattered through the trees, with studios, treehouses, log cabins and villas among the options, so most guests wake to canopy and birdsong rather than neighbours. The resort trades on its position more than its polish: walking tracks to the falls begin nearby, and the rainforest setting is the point. It suits couples and small families after quiet in the hinterland, within reach of Montville's cafes and galleries but insulated from them. Formerly known as the Tree Houses of Montville, it has kept the low-key, forest-first character that name implied.

Self-Contained

Regatta Riverfront Apartments

Right on Gympie Terrace in Noosaville, across the road from the Noosa River, these spacious self-contained apartments come in one-, two- and three-bedroom layouts, each with generous lounge and dining space and a balcony over the water. Owner-managed, with a pool on site, it sits amongst Eat Street's restaurants, cafes and boutiques, and a ferry across the road runs down to Hastings Street. A relaxed, independently run riverfront base a short drive from Noosa's beaches.

Cottage

Scandi at Maleny

A single luxury eco-cabin perched high on a ridge just outside Maleny, in the Sunshine Coast hinterland. The modular build bakes sustainability into its bones — carbon-neutral, with a fireplace and considered interiors for a genuinely slow stay. An escape with purpose, as the owners put it: a break you can feel good about on more than one count.

B&B

Winston Cottage

In the hinterland village of Palmwoods, a short run from the Sunshine Coast beaches, this small bed and breakfast turns on its kitchen: the owner cooks a changing breakfast menu each morning, served with quality linens and coffee. Two rooms take couples and small families, one of them pet-friendly, and a seasonal pool fills on tank water through the warmer months. Opened around 2019 and hosted throughout. For travellers who measure a stay by the first meal of the day.
