Property Details:

Imagine starting the day with a dazzling sunrise over the the South Pacific ocean, then enjoying a spectacular sunset at days end, as the star slips below the rugged mountain escarpments of the Border Ranges - all by strolling just 10 metres to the east or west of your accommodation!

Sitting astride a beautiful mountain bluff, Tropical Coast Retreat offers the best of both worlds, with ocean and hinterland views from its hilltop location overlooking the Tweed Coast. We're just 10 minutes drive to the popular resort town of Kingscliff, its beaches and world class restaurants, and 15 minutes from Tweed Heads, Coolangatta and Gold Coast Airport.

With just two fully self contained suites with ensuite spas, overlooking the beautiful Tweed Coast or Tweed Valley and hinterland, Tropical Coast Retreat offers affordable rates from $150.00 per couple per night. What more could you want for that perfect short drive getaway or hideaway break? Beach AND bush within easy reach! Contact us now to check availability.

Located on 13 hectares (35 acres) which used to be part of a tropical and exotic fruit orchard, Tropical Coast Retreat boasts a four hole practice golf course (with the best views!), Gondwanaland rainforest grove and a remnant Ti tree forest with exploratory walking track, to a secluded picnic spot.

Our retreat is ideal for driving holidays, a midweek escape, weekend getaway or romantic honeymoon. You'll feel like you're a million miles from the hustle and bustle, but all the action of night life, culture, sport and entertainment, are within easy drive, as you get away from the crowds, kick back, relax and de-stress, nestled on this rural property.

    Tropical Coast Retreat is at the locality of "Duranbah". While this area was formerly an agricultural research station, the name will be most familiar to surfers for the world class surfing breaks at Duranbah and Kirra, which are just 20 minutes drive for all the would be "grommits".

    Set on 35 acres of subtropical orchards and bushland, you can take a leisurely stroll through the property, and enjoy the natural setting, gardens and regenerating rainforest, or "discover" our picnic table in the Ti Tree forest.

    Golfers can get in some practice on our 4 hole course before tackling the delights of one of the many well known and respected public and resort Golf Courses. Why not check availability right now?

    If you're a birdwatcher, be sure to bring your binoculars and field guide, as the wetland area abounds with avian activity! Visit our orchard of Citrus, Avocados, Custard Apples, Bananas and other fruits and "pick your own" (in season).

    You can relax and enjoy the ambience and privacy of the estate, or venture out and explore the attractions of the area, with one of the most notable, Tropical Fruit World, less than a kilometre, just "up the road"!

    Whilst set in peaceful surroundings, for the more active, horse riding, golf courses and fishing are a short drive, with the sun and surf of the Tweed Coast at Kingscliff and Tweed Heads, just 10 minutes drive away. Discover the ambience of quaint country villages, and enjoy the al fresco dining of Kingscliff and Murwillumbah's cafe culture after you've sampled the famous weekend and country markets the region is renowned for.

    Most of the major headlands of the Tweed Coast also provide boardwalks, lookouts, great during whale watching season, and interpretive signage. These provide pleasant, short and scenic walks, while a visit to Minjungbul Museum at Tweed Heads is an interesting visit for aboriginal culture in the local region.

    "Gondwanaland" Rainforest Grove Or you can visit "Stotts Island Nature Reserve" on the Tweed Valley Way (old Pacific Highway) for a pleasant stroll through regenerating rainforest adjacent to the primary remaining subtropical lowland rainforest in the region.
