Escape to The Tamborine: A New Boutique Retreat in Queensland’s Scenic Rim

Nestled amidst the rolling landscapes of Tamborine Mountain in Queensland’s Scenic Rim, The Tamborine is set to redefine boutique accommodations. Opening its doors in December 2024, this thoughtfully reimagined 1980s Hacienda-style motel offers 23 luxurious rooms, each with a private balcony or terrace, inviting you to soak in breathtaking mountain views.

At the heart of this retreat lies a promise of relaxation. Guests can unwind by the heated mineral pool and spa, sip on crafted drinks, and savor light bites from the bar menu. Mornings begin with a complimentary continental breakfast, while Peacock O’clock—an evening aperitif hour—brings people together in a stylish lounge and bar area that exudes comfort and charm.
