“A relaxed Tambourine Mountain retreat for quiet couples or groups of friends, with chalets & a two-bedroom villa tucked amidst rainforested grounds. Modern interiors are simple, allowing nature — and the area's famous birdlife — to take centre stage. The restaurant crafts fresh, seasonal cuisine. ”

Songbirds Rainforest Retreat - Hotel Review

"These six luxury villas provide a cool mountain retreat in the rainforest. They're found inland from Queensland’s beach resort destination of the Gold Coast, and are popular for weddings, honeymoons and romantic weekends away. The location is also ideal for nature-lovers and birdwatchers."
