Stunning rainforest valley views from our five lodges: Byron, Lamington, Numinbah, Springbrook and Tamborine

  • Spacious, architect-designed open plan with premium appliances
  • Floor-to-ceiling windows for stunning aspects to the rainforest valley
  • Double-sided fireplace keeps both bed and lounge cosy
  • Large private deck with heated plunge pool
  • Double bath with amazing immersive rainforest views
  • Skylight above bed for viewing the stars

Higher in the Retreat, each Luxury Mountain View Lodge presents a breathtaking aspect to the surrounding landscape, magically combining lofty mountain ridges on high with tropical valleys of genuine old-growth rainforest and stoic trees that have stood for centuries. The beginning and close of each day are imbued with the epic, aeons-old mystery of an ancient forest setting.

Including the deck, the floor space of the architect-designed open plan is over 150 square metres. A cosy, romantic double-sided fireplace screens the bedroom from the generous living area, with a big clear skylight (with block-out blind) above the bed for stargazing. Reverse-cycle air conditioning keeps you comfortable all year round. A walk-in wardrobe provides generous space for suitcases and the like. In the bathroom, floor-to-ceiling windows integrate the stunning beauty of the rainforest with the indulgence of the luxury double solid marble bath or freestanding spa bath. Recycled French oak floorboards add a glamorous patina throughout.

The private decks on these Lodges incorporate a stainless-steel roasting barbecue and heated plunge pools. In winter you can indulge in the cosy warmth of the double-sided fire inside.

The modern energy efficiency technology in the Lodges makes your stay extremely comfortable while being environmentally conscious. In addition to the thoroughly insulated walls and ceiling, the superior insulation properties of the floor-to-ceiling ‘Comfort Plus’ glass very effectively keep the heat in during winter and out in summer.

Our five Luxury Mountain View Lodges, Numinbah, Springbrook, Byron, Tamborine and Lamington, have everything to ensure your stay is comfortable and luxurious.

NOTE: We regret that we cannot book you a specific Luxury Mountain View Lodge, as the allocation of the Lodges is adjusted to suit the flow of bookings. Each Luxury Lodge features a stunning unique placement within the Retreat, each with its own subtle differences and charm. All Lodges deliver a premium and truly unforgettable rainforest experience.
