I need more stars to demonstrate how fantastic this place was.
First of all, Robbie - the owner - is an outstanding guy. He was totally friendly and had grade-A recommendations for things to do in the area. He had this great mountain biking recommendation that I did not see coming because there is so much surfing nearby - it was some of the best riding I've done.
The atmosphere of this place is so relaxing and comfortable that it just made me want to stay - and so I changed some plans and stayed for two extra nights. It was very friendly and lacked that stuffy corporate hotel vibe, it was perfect.
The place is about a 10-minute walk outside of Coolum itself, but the path is gorgeous, so I never regretted not having a car. Plus the outside was completely quiet, so I was able to leave the door to the patio open the whole time and listen to the sounds of nature.
The beds probably weren't the most comfortable in the world, but I could never figure out why because I was asleep within moments of hitting the pillow - I guess that means I was having enough fun during the day.
Do yourself a favor, get off the beaten path, and check this place out, it's one in a million. read more
