Pethers Rainforest Retreat 28B Geissmann Street, Tamborine Mountain, Queensland 4272

"Set outside a small Tamborine town walking distance to local shops, cafes and restaurants this retreat needs a little more tweaking before it gets a 5 star review. Staff are friendly but not well information about all the features of the retreat. Cabins are recently renovated and they have done well. Just don’t look at the finer details of the outside of the cabins or the restaurant. Inside the rooms they are cosy and private but has a tiny fridge and no cooking facilities. So don’t expect to just stay in, you will have to go out each time you are hungry. Spa bath is beautifully positioned with amazing views of the rainforest. If I was you, skip breakfast. Cheap and nasty with limited options - over cooked frittatas or Woolworth croissant or plain bagels. How hard is it to do eggs on toast??? Ordered an in house couples massage, they were friendly professional and did a wonderful job. Overall - unless they change a few things, would go back again."

"Scenery driving onto Pethers property was stunning , Door at reception set the scene for your experience how beautiful your Room would be. Heading down to our room was an adventure. Room 6 was isolated and hidden which we loved and was so peaceful. So glad we got room 6 it was so private. Once inside room it was very large comfy and cosy. So romantic.. Our Bed was a King size and the mattress was like sleeping on a cloud best stress free sleep ever and the pillows was perfect for me . However I expected goodies in room like biscuits or something to nibble on when you have a cuppa. Maybe a gift basket in room with nik nacks. Would be nice to have a teapot for cuppa's. Main restaurant area was lovely. We took a takeaway breakfast back to our room and paid an extra $25 to stay to 1300. The pathway to Room wasn't well lit. So use a phone torch as it is very dark when coming back to room at night. Also be careful of driveway as other 3rd party vehicles are exiting and entering property and it can be tricky ."

"Amazing location with beautiful private view of rainforest from tree house , loved the spa bath , fireplace and the oversized spaces. New driveway makes access very easy , with shops on Main Street just a 10 minute walk. Very friendly local staff who are happy to recommend things to do. Was nice surprise to receive complimentary wine tasting vouchers. Will definitely be back."

"The staff are wonderful and helpful. The rooms feel private and individually have a beautiful view. Water pressure is good in the rooms and they all have a jacuzzi tub. There is a few shops and restaurants a short walk away. There is also great hiking spots near by!"

"Amazing big rooms! Had a lovely massage. Very clean and quiet. Went in January for my birthday and had a lovely night. Unfortunately the main bar area closed early and they didn’t have dinner options but we went to gallery walk for delicious Thai. The bath is huge and they have candles and nice looking out to the trees. Highly recommend this for quiet getaways, tree house experience and fair rates compared to others we were looking at."
