Floating in a peaceful nook on the majestic Noosa River, experience complete tranquillity and seclusion with a stay on this architecturally designed eco villa. Imagine a floating tiny house experience, and you´re on the right track, complete with eco-friendly inclusions like solar, marine-grade sustainable timbers, and oversized, retractable thermal glazing. Wake to the gentle sounds of water lapping at the deck and watch the resident pelicans glide by as the sun rises over the green expanse of the Noosa Woods from your very own private stay. Paddle the short distance to the sandy shores of the mainland aboard the boat´s included kayaks or rowboat, and from here you´re just a short 5-minute walk to the bustling Hastings Street precinct or paddle your way to a waterfront lunch or dinner along the Noosa River. This unique, immersive eco-stay connects you to the richness of the surrounding ecosystems and aquatic life, in a perfectly balanced stay for two, with high-end modern amenities – the ideal way to recharge and reconnect in Noosa.
Set in an unassuming spot on the deck overlooking the charming Sunshine Beach village, this tiny hole-in-the-wall dining destination has become an institution for local and visiting foodies in the know. With just 14 seats in the intimate dining space, guests lucky enough to nab a reservation can settle in for home-style service from the small team headed up by maître d´ Jade, while tucking into the delicious seasonal dishes based on locally sourced produce, from the one-chef kitchen. The Middle Eastern-inspired set menu rotates regularly but might include such balanced delicacies as burrata with pickled watermelon, Lebanese spiced rump cap, and sweet offerings like sheep’s yoghurt panna cotta with almond crumble. Wine can come paired with your chef´s feed-me menu or ask the knowledgeable staff to help you choose from the interesting selection of old-world varieties and new-world skin contact offerings.
Is this Noosa´s best-kept secret?
