My wife and I booked two nights and then extended our stay for another night. Our accommodation was excellent surrounding us was rainforest and birds singing. Ali and Xochi were wonderful, friendly and accommodating hosts. My wife borrowed a book from the office and read it on our stay. If you are looking for a relaxing, comfortable stay make sure you try Narrows Escape!

Love Love Love Narrows Escape. Have been there many time since it opened in 1995 & it never disappoints. This time we got the Girls Weekend away package & it was amazing. Ali & Xochi arranged everything for us from the dinner at the local pub with transfers to the massages in our Wsgtail Villa to the Hi-tea at Secrets on the Lake on check out. I love the Wagtail Villa & stay in it everytime. Love being up high in the rainforest hearing all the sounds of the wild life. The special touches in the villas are well thought out & the breakfast hamper is plentiful & wow those croissants... OMG!

Idyllic setting in the rainforest with lovely hosts and great touches to make the stay very special. We were met with fresh roses, cheese platter and wonderful breakfast hamper. Warm fresh croissants arrived each morning and each night we had a cosy fire to enjoy. There was a Tesla charger on site for my car and the area abounds with amazing scenery, walks and beautiful little towns. You just have to stay a few days!

We stayed for two nights in the white cockatoo villa. It was hands down the BEST place we have ever stayed (and we are kindof fussy). There was a breakfast hamper and cheese platter waiting for us, along with a good selection of tea and coffee (it has a full coffee machine in the room). We didn't leave the whole time we were there except to take a short walk through the rainforest via a trail off the grounds. We ordered two curries in night one, and nachos for two on the second night- both were delicious. The service was excellent also, they were very accommodating and friendly.

A true rainforest escape, the villa was stunning, warm and spotless! The hosts are warm and welcoming. The environment is serene, peaceful and magical. We loved our stay very much.

Had a lovely mid-week stay at the Narrows Escape Rainforest Retreat. The cabin was very spacious with a fully equipped kitchen, living room with fireplace and spa bath, bedroom and large bathroom with double shower, as well as the deck with BBQ. We took advantage of one of the packages offered - 'Hinterland Highlights' which was perfect with most food and some activities organised for us to simply enjoy. The food hampers were very generous. We especially enjoyed the picnic hamper that we took to Maleny Botanical Gardens (wine, cheese, crackers, salami, salad, fruit, bread, juice, and chocolates) and the BBQ hamper (steaks, sausages, baked potatoes, garlic bread, salad, ice creams) that was delivered to our cabin. The breakfast hamper was good as well, complimented with fresh croissants each morning. The hosts were very friendly and welcoming. We enjoyed the relaxing stay and chance to explore the area.

Amazing setting, tranquil and peaceful, our cottage was clean and beautifully set up. Our hosts took great care of us and we had a wonderfully relaxing couple of days for our Wedding Anniversary. We loved our stay,and are already planning to come back.
