What a view. Amazing. The room was a good size and clean. Bbq was not working but a call had them working the next day. Pool is nice but smaller than the photos show. Would stay again. It was a shock to drive up a dirt road and see water tank and radio towers and we thought the GPS was playing up. But then we turned into the property.
Fully equipped kitchen, heated pool, great views. Spotlessly clean and Paula was amazingly helpful. Absolutely would recommended to everyone, and I'd stay again in a heartbeat. So peaceful. 💖✌
The 2 bedroom room was amazing for size. The view over mountains was amazing.
Rubbish found under the bed. Dusty window seals. Outdoor table and chairs had cob webs.
They didn’t leave remote controls for the aircons. So couldn’t adjust. Had to call after hours. Mac was amazing and came out. But the aircons turned off after a few hours. Bedrooms was freezing.
Folded up Tables and a big white board was left in the main area which wasn’t ideal with a little one.
Great little find. The view was amazing. Large enough to fit our family of 5. Rooms could use a little update, but we were outside for most of our trip so were happy. Beautiful spot to watch the sunset and enjoy a glass of wine. Will definitely be back.
It was beautiful. Was clean. Loved the hot spa. Had a beautiful view also.
My only critique is, there was no heater and no extra towels. We stayed a couple nights and our towels remained damp as there was no heat or sun out. But other than than, we loved our stay. Definitely recommend.

The lady on the phone had been nice enough to move our dates after we had booked the wrong dates. When we arrived. We were assigned apartment 3. Big stench hit us when we opened the door. The couches were so gross. There's a white board and tables stack on each other. There's also a projector. I think this used to be a conference room or something. It smelled like noone had stayed in there for a while.....a stale/mouldy kind of smell. The linen also feel very cheap. Beautiful views when you go to the side of rhe porperty thoigh. We couldn't stay there daily because of the smell and yucky couches and we explained our situation and unfortunately there's noone onsite to oversee or assist. They knocked back our request for a refund. We drove back to Cairns and spoilt ourselves at the Hilton

It was raining and on twilight when we arrived, we had to drive up a gravel road, past some storage tanks to what looked like a deserted place, an automated lockbox that we then had to work out where to go. Turns out we were in a room in a shared house . It was seriously creepy and we felt isolated as there was nothing around except bushes and no lights or civilization . If I was there on my own, I would have turned around found somewhere else to stay . It was clean and smelt sterile . The blinds in the room had broken slats which didn’t help with the feeling that we were in a deserted house high on a hill above Atherton in the middle of the night. Just to top it off, someone came into another room in the middle of the night just to freak us out more ! It would be great for 4 couples to take over whole house , on ur own , no !

Dissapointed
Average stay. Tv didnt work, flat batteries in remote. Sons bed sheet was dirty. Didnt look like a damp cloth used in bedroom. Very dusty, mirror was very dusty. Smelled of mould when we opened door. Toaster was full of crumbs. Not sure when this was last cleaned. Only one towel per person and no pool towel. No spare bin bags. Tried to call office at 4.30pm but just got message. The web page suggested nice views, only for some. Ours was a blank wall from the verandah or a telstra tower. The front doors were all glass and looked straight at the bunk beds. No curtain or blind for privacy.
This property is well presented, has beautiful views, and is well priced and convenient to find. Check in was easy and I cannot recommend it more highly. Make sure to visit.

Lovely quiet location with beautiful views over Atherton
We loved this place so much we decided to stay another 2 nights Originally we had a share kitchen experience The views are spectacular & our room was perfect! Sadly it was booked for the next 2 nights so we luckily got an apartment on the same property. It’s self contained & seperate from the other rooms Would recommend this place to anyone visiting Atherton
