My friend and I were wonderfully appreciative of the excellent service, especially given by Emma, when we enjoyed a very nice afternoon relaxing here. The ambience is perfect. Food exceptional. Wine list varied. Cocktails available too.

• Lake Baroon is a tranquil & scenic pocket dam, located between Montville & Maleny, with various recreational facilities on offer to visitors (including boating, fishing, picnicking, rainforest trekking, etc). • Enjoy the charm of the ‘hidden’ Secrets on the Lake Café / Restaurant, also offering captivating rainforest treehouse stays; highly atmospheric & ideal for a short get-away.

It’s just as wonderful as all these reviews describe. We stayed in the Nest as a splurge for a family of three. It’s a beautiful building nestled in the rainforest. The views over the lake through the trees changes throughout the day. George and Aldy are wonderful and it is very clear the resort is a labour of love. We came across an array of wildlife, a testament to the sustainability of the resort. The complimentary breakfast each morning was delicious and child friendly. The setting of the restaurant was beautiful. The walkways nestled in the rainforest to the Nest added to the fun, our 7yr old loved walking to breakfast each morning!

Had a wonderful breakfast this morning. Huge ham and cheese croissants and coffee. Beautiful views of the lake. A special shout out to Cecile for being a fantastic host, made the experience very special as I’m recovering from major surgery.

Me my partner and some friends had lunch here recently. The setting is lovely the menu is varied we all chose different things from the menu. The food was all delicious. The waiting staff were very friendly and helpful. We however had a quite upsetting incident which involved one of the staff. I had left my mobile phone on the table when i went back to the reception of the restaurant i spotted our waiter i asked him if anyone had handed in a mobile. He was just about to answer me and a lady behind the counter started waving her hands in my face saying very loudly i will deal with you in a moment please don't talk to the staff. at that moment the waiter found my mobile and handed it back to me. I thanked him and said to the lady behind the counter please do not speak to me in such a rude manner. She turned away without saying sorry. I considered this very rude behaviour it upset me on a day when i was enjoying a lunch with friends. I am afraid i will not return.

Lovely setting on the balcony overlooking the dam, set amongst the trees. Good service and good food, all reasonably priced. Gallery attached to the restaurant/ cafe, boutique gift shop and accommodation available in this beautiful tree top setting.

If I could give this stay Six Stars I would. We have stayed here several times over a number of years and this stay didn’t disappoint. From the moment you arrive at Secrets you know you have just arrived somewhere very special. We booked the Possums Cabin including breakfast as well as the BBQ dinner pack and a welcome Cheese platter. Everything was perfect, so much food and so beautifully presented and tasty. I also need gluten free food and this was very well cared for. The coffee in the Restaurant is excellent. We decided to have our breakfast in the beautiful Secrets restaurant, the food, the view and the staff were excellent. These cabins have been here for a very long time but are in pristine condition, so well maintained. Everything that you need for your stay is here, plenty of firewood, the fire is easy to light, you air conditioner as a backup, blankets to take out side and sit on the beautiful swing, a small kitchen with plenty utensils, a BBQ on the balcony, a very comfortable bed, bathroom products, candles to light around your spa…… the list goes on! So as you can see we loved it all! Thank you so much to George, Aldy and the Secrets team for an another amazing stay. See you next time🌺

Thank you for such amazing service and refreshing smiles. The food was exquisite as always. The lake and woods are oh so relaxing. Thank you to Adam and his girlfriend and the tall bearded young chap for such kindness. It made our day wonderful after a long hard trial. We laughed and enjoyed the company of such lovely staff. Thank you Thank you again. Whoever comes to Secrets will not be disappointed. The best on the coast. 😊
