The large house on a sprawling property gave the feeling of peaceful remote seclusion. In reality, it's only 5 minutes out of town. What a great place to relax be it in the pool, watching tv or enjoying the breeze on the balcony. Even a day trip to the beach is not too far. This was just what we needed. Thanks again.

The home was beautiful and we had a really relaxing weekend.The only change I would make was that I would have liked the exit information when I received all the other information as it was sent to me on the Sunday and I couldn't access my emails making me a bit anxious that I left everything as I needed to on the Monday when I left.

Our stay in Mount Mellum was absolutely wonderful! The kitchen, dining, and entertainment areas were well thought out and perfect for a relaxing getaway. The view was stunning—if you’re looking to be close to nature, you definitely won’t go wrong with this place. We’re also very grateful that they were so accommodating with our little fur baby. Highly recommended!

Lovely stay in a comfortable house
Overall we had a fab stay at Mt Mellum.
Due to being winter, we couldn’t use the pool but we enjoyed the handy location to everything and the beautiful views from the house.
There were a few issues that didn’t really affect our stay, however our property manager Isaac was very attentive and attended to all queries and issues swiftly.
Had a great time thanks!

Nice semi rural stay
Overall nice spot. 10 or so min drive to the beach, Mary Cairncross scenic walk a few mins drive and a spin to Maleny so all in all a good spot. The house was nice.
