Enjoy a cool, fully-air-conditioned respite in warmer weather, or a cosy break the cooler season. Stroll around the walking paths, refreshment in hand, and enjoy tranquil seating areas next to, or overlooking the dam, with an abundance of bird-and wildlife – Wallaby spotting guaranteed! Extended check-in/out for weekends The space We're excited to share our amazing rural acreage retreat with you. The absolute beauty, calmness, stylishness and abundance of bird and wildlife is what drew us to this property, and we know you will enjoy it immensely too! Make it a weekend break to remember with check-in as early as 12pm on Friday and as late as 2pm checkout on Sunday, if available, and by special request! We apologise but the retreat is for ADULTS ONLY and we do NOT allow smoking anywhere on the property. About the home - "Moorina Retreat" offers a stylish, softly retro, nostalgic style, yet with modern convenience, and will have you instantly feeling comfortably at home. Here you can enjoy the peacefulness of nature and come back to relax after a day exploring the Moreton Bay Region and the Sunshine Coast. Accommodation for up to 2 couples or 4 adults in 2 air-conditioned bedrooms with king size beds which each lead out onto a private west facing deck with elevated views into the trees and the abundant birdlife – the perfect morning coffee spot. Relax in a supremely comfortable air-conditioned Lounge area and games room with pool table with various lounging and seating arrangements, an indoor bar and leading onto a private deck and the main home’s deck (with a folding screen for added privacy). The entertainers deck offers a spectacular view with outdoor lounging, dining seating, gas barbeque, and a fabulous Kamado Joe BBQ, and overlooks the seasonally (September to May) heated saltwater pool and Bali-style day bed, all of which are available for you to enjoy. Fully equipped kitchen - Combination oven microwave Induction hob with vented extraction Butler's sink Filtered water Full size dishwasher Nespresso Gran Lattissima capsule coffee machine Toaster Kettle Air fryer Ice Maker Ample quality crockery and cutlery. Spices, oils, salt & pepper are. provided There is a shower room with basin and toilet, as well as an additional separate full toilet and vanity. Parking - Ample open secure parking for 2 cars, next to the house and close to the apartment a We also have a larger open parking area should you have a caravan/trailer/boat in tow which is about 100m away from the apartment. If using this, then we’ll happily help cart luggage and supplies down the driveway with our electric buggy. Internet access - The property has Starlink (Tesla) satellite wi-fi throughout. Speeds vary but usually up to 250 mbps depending on the number of overhead satellites. Guest access We welcome weekend breaks, checking in on Thursday's or Friday's and because we know how annoying it is to check out early on a Sunday, we invite you check out at 12pm on Sunday or to request a later checkout of up to 2pm if it is available. The apartment has its own access from the rear fenced courtyard, or via the expansive front deck - you have access to the entire apartment and all amenities on the property. Other things to note We will provide a hamper consisting of a few food staples such as eggs, pastries, bread, breakfast cereals, tea bags, coffee pods, milk and sugar to help you settle in on your first morning. Things to note as we like to be fully transparent: This 1,054 sq ft (98m2) large self-contained apartment is attached to the main house. Our little Maltese poodles Custard, Cookie and Candy, are very friendly, well behaved, and live mostly indoors in our home. They wouldn't ordinarily interact with you unless you want to say hello to them. If you are uncomfortable with dogs, then please let us know ahead of your stay and we'll l make sure they don't bother you. We are an acreage on the mountain/bush, so as is normal here in Queensland you may encounter the occasional sighting of our much-loved Carpet Python and the odd other snake - very rare though. All doors and windows have insect screens, and the home is extremely secure from any critters. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby - Beach loungers - Beach towels ### Pool/Spa - Heated pool -

So many small thoughtful touches to the place to make your stay comfortable. Can't recommend enough. ##### Rachael Stayed 3 nights in May 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dan M. 8 Jun 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Best getaway yet If your after a quiet country stay this is the place. Everything about the place was carefully thought-out, it was beautifully presented and the attention to details left us wanting for nothing. From the selection of sleeping pillows to the appliances and little gift basket it was clear the owner provided an experience they would want to. Packs of kangaroos or wallabies roaming around and a huge selection of birds, it's perfect to just get out of the city. It's also not so far that you can't drive and go out for breakfast or dinner. I can't say enough nice things about the place, the owners are so nice and really seem to go out of their way to make sure we had a great time. Thank you again Brendon and Cliff ##### Dan M. Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Deb C. 11 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Best VRBO ever This was an absolute perfect home. Set in paradise in the woods with beautiful landscaping, heated pool and hot tub...we did not want to leave. The house itself is beautifully decorated. The hosts have not forgotten a thing...high end soft cotton bamboo linens (which were ironed!), a selection of pillows, any personal item you could think of (in case you forgot something), food for snacks and breakfast and the newest coffee maker. And so clean! Set off the beaten path in an absolutely stunning location, we saw kangaroos, wallabies and so many birds...you could hear the birds in the morning. The hosts live next door and were so attentive. This is by far the nicest VRBO we have ever rented on our world travels. Thanks for sharing your slice of heaven with us! Deb and Bob Marblehead, Ohio USA ##### Deb C. Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Danielle K. 13 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Tranquil Australian Retreat. Endless Star Rating…this makes 5 star hotels obsolete. This is the most beautiful house painted into a live canvas surrounded by nature. You live amongst the trees, wallabies, koalas & several types of song birds. No need to visit animal sanctuaries-you’re bound to see these animals during your stay. We relaxed in the incredible heated salt water pool & lounged on the Bali daybed. There’s a walking path that provides plenty of seating to enjoy the pond, flowers, the quiet of nature & being off the beaten path. The lavish decor to the finite details throughout the house are exquisite. Brendon & Cliff have thought of everything! Down to the face masks, slippers & toiletries you might need during your stay. You’re welcomed with a personal gift basket & glass of wine. Not to mention the beautiful serving trays filled with some happies left atop the bamboo sheets, with the most fluffy (perfect amount of) pillows! The fridge also stocked with some essentials for your stay. We booked this for my 40th & lifelong plan to experience authentic Australia; which was beyond perfect. Brendon helped coordinate things prior to our stay & was very attentive to all needs & requests. He went above and beyond to include some birthday happies! Much appreciated! This trip was amazing with cherished memories. We’re grateful for Brendon & Cliff being apart of them & gaining friends for life. These two are the most genuine individuals & our lives are richer for knowing them. Won’t stay anywhere else. Danielle, Britt, Brandon & Benjamin Mississippi, USA ##### Danielle K.
