Retreat from the busy

An English-village hideaway, wrapped in rainforest

Nestled at the top of Tamborine Mountain โ€” where the air runs three to five degrees cooler than the coast all year round โ€” Curtis Falls Studio Apartment is a recently renovated retreat built for two. Old-English charm, modern comforts, and the kind of quiet you only find at the edge of a National Park.

"Close to town but still so quiet and peaceful โ€” clean, fully stocked, and it had absolutely everything you need."

Settle in with a complimentary tea or coffee, light the wood fire on your private veranda as the evening cools, and let the sound of the forest do the rest. A romantic escape, an anniversary, or simply a long-overdue breather โ€” you'll be looked after, and left in peace.

Anniversary weekend

Arrive Friday, dinner nearby, a slow Saturday walk to Curtis Falls, then the veranda fire as the mountain cools. A welcome treat waiting on arrival.

Good to know

Your questions, answered

Is the studio private and self-contained?

Yes โ€” the studio is fully self-contained with its own private entrance, and the whole 54mยฒ space and enclosed veranda are yours for your stay. It's a semi-detached studio (adults-only, non-smoking), so you have your own space and entry while the hosts are nearby if you need them.

What's within walking distance?

Rainforest walking tracks in Tamborine National Park start right beside the property, and the nearest cafรฉs (all-day breakfast and coffee) are about 50 metres away. Gallery Walk's shops, cafรฉs and restaurants are a short stroll, and the Curtis Falls waterfall walk and Rainforest Skywalk are around 3.5 km. Many guests barely use the car.

Is parking included?

Free private parking is available right at the property โ€” no permits, no fuss.

Is there a minimum stay?

Yes โ€” all bookings require a minimum of 2 nights. This applies to direct bookings and all booking channels.

How do direct bookings work?

Pick your dates in the booking widget above โ€” availability is live (2-night minimum). Submit your details and your booking is confirmed instantly โ€” no online payment required to secure your stay. We'll follow up with your arrival details. Full payment is taken on the day of arrival.

Are there discounts for longer stays?

Yes โ€” stay 3 or more nights and receive 10% off the total rate. Stay 7 or more nights and receive 20% off. Discounts are applied automatically by the booking system โ€” no codes needed.

What is the cancellation policy?

Cancellation must be received by 6pm (Aust. E.S.T.) 7 days prior to the reservation. A non-arrival will incur full payment of the booked stay.

Is there air-conditioning and heating?

Yes โ€” the studio has split-system air-conditioning and heating, plus a free-standing wood fire on the enclosed veranda for cool mountain evenings, available year-round.

Are pets allowed?

The studio is an adults-only retreat and is not set up for pets, so we're unable to accommodate them โ€” this keeps the space immaculate for every guest.
