About this property
Entire place
You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
Back to nature rainforest retreat, in the centre of the Sunshine Coast Region.
Welcome to all looking for a sanctuary where you can immerse yourself in nature but still be 20 minutes from Sunshine Coast’s beaches, the Great Walk Track, waterfalls, Mapleton, Montville and Eumundi, if you love a good market. The property can comfortably accommodate 12 – 14 people in 9 rooms. There are 6 intimate single rooms especially designed for solitary retreat and those who don’t want to share! The remaining 3 king rooms can be used for couples or can be reconfigured for twin or triple share rooms. The spacious main area is multi-purpose as well, providing ample space for groups or family members to gather. Ideal space for a yoga class overlooking the rainforest. Nature’s Echo is all about nurturing, support and re-connecting with nature. With it’s own rainforest habitat, abundant birds and trickling creek - perfect place to recharge the batteries. NE is a place of quiet, relaxation and rest. It is definitely NOT a party house and we have strict rules around noise and disturbing the peace. The property is mostly solar powered, water is supplied via tanks on site with sophisticated charcoal filters and a biodynamic waste water-treatment has been installed. Whilst we endeavour to minimize our impact on the environment, this means that we ask guests to be mindful of water usage and waste treatment system when using the toilet! Depending on your needs, there is a kitchenette available with all of the basic equipment or alternatively the catering van can be used when cooking up a storm! There is also 4 burner BBQ with wok burner available for outdoor feasts. If using NE as a base, there are many cafes, pubs and excellent restaurants in the area including the famous Piggy Back up the road in Palmwoods. https://piggyb.com.au/

Some of our favourites include: * The Big Pineapple * Australia Zoo * Noosa Everglades * The Sunshine Coast Hinterland Great Walk - many hiking options * Kondalilla National Park * Kondalilla Falls, Gardners and Wappa Falls * Parklands Mountain Bike Trails * Cotton Tree, Mooloolaba and Coolum Beaches (personal favs!)
Finally, please note, whilst we take every precaution to ensure a safe and pleasant stay, the property is located in the Australian bush. Staying in a natural environment comes with unique experiences and responsibilities. Uneven ground, wildlife, weather changes, water features and outdoor activities require guests to use reasonable care, follow retreat guidance and participate in ways that are safe and appropriate for their individual needs and abilities.
The vacation home features a kitchenette and 2.5 bathrooms, and there's space to spread out with 9 bedrooms.

This place was amazing! It was spacious enough for multiple families to stay together comfortably, and it had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. It was also only a short drive into town, which made it really convenient.
The only suggestion I have would be to install a handrail in the downstairs accessible bathroom to help people safely get back up from the toilet. Aside from that, I genuinely couldn’t fault a thing.
We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it!
