Beautiful suburb within minutes of Noosa. A few minutes walk to Sunshine beach surf beach, coffee shops, restaurants and surf clubs in a quite forest like setting. Just beautiful. I loved walking into this property and I would stay again and recommend it to my family and friends. ##### Rachael A. Stayed 8 nights in Jun 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Amy B. 23 Sept 2022 Liked: Check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### Sunshine beach stay House was lovely upon first appearance, but unfortunately the longer we stayed the more uncleanliness we came to notice. Holes in walls, thick dust on fans and stains on bed sheets and cockroaches under dining table. The pool was great, very child and family friendly with a nice entertaining area with bbq. We liked that the house provided toys for children who stay and it was a short drive to nearby town and beaches. ##### Amy B.

I expected a slightly newer house. But it was picturesque and everything was more than I could have wished for. It was comfortable and air-conditioned. There were toys for the kids and the shallow pool area was great for the little one to play in. The rainforest feel of the street was beautiful and relaxing. Our child left his favourite toy behind and the staff were very helpful in returning it. We would definitely love to stay here again. ##### Talitha T.
