Hampton Estate

One of our favourite Tamborine vineyards, the viniculture gurus at Hampton do a killer Sparkling Rose. And once you’ve had your fill of the bubbly stuff, it’s got a brilliant little boutique to lay your wine-weary head.

The gorgeous whitewashed abode is home to eight elegant studio suites. Each comes complete with sparkling modern ensuites, a handy kitchenette, and a private balcony with sweeping views of their luscious lawns. Upgrade to the Deluxe Suite to snag an ultra-luxe spa.   

And yes. You will get a complimentary bottle of Hampton wine on arrival.

Set on four acres of lush botanical gardens, this award-winning rainforest sanctuary boasts some of the most stunning views on Tamborine Mountain.

Perched on a cliff on the southern side of the mountain lies the aptly named Edge House. This fully contained three-bedroom cabin features an outside deck with a log fireplace and views through the rainforest all the way to the coast. It is truly breath-taking and undoubtedly one of the best retreats on Tamborine Mountain.
