Best Resorts and Getaways in Queensland

Halcyon House – Cabarita Beach, NSW

Not far from Byron Bay, this fresh and modern hotel is located on Cabarita Beach. With its blue and white aesthetic, it has a Santorini vibe. The hotel features a spa, and it’s a great option if you plan on catching a sunrise at Byron Bay and staying here for a night.

Escarpment Retreat – Mt Tamborine, QLD

I like to think of this place as a hidden gem on the cliffs of Mount Tamborine. It offers villas for two people and an edge house for multiple guests. The room design is a bit outdated, but the outdoor cliff platform views are breathtaking. It’s perfect for a proposal or a wedding!

Spicers Peak Lodge – Maryvale, QLD

Produced by Spicer, this luxury hotel costs an average of $1500 per night and sits atop a mountain. It hosts wedding receptions and even offers helicopter rides to guests.

Nightfall Camp – LAMINGTON NATIONAL PARK, QLD

How about returning to nature with your loved one or friends? I really like the atmosphere of this bathtub and the accommodations. Make sure to book in advance!

Crystal Creek Rainforest Retreat – MURWILLUMBAH, NSW

Although the address shows New Zhou, it is actually located near the Springbrook National Park, where you can enjoy the beautiful views of the Lamington National Park. I’m deeply attracted to this independent house with a swimming pool.
