Inside Tamborine Mountain’s New Hacienda-Style Luxury Hotel
Tamborine elegance
Style Media Director Tracy Sinclair escaped to The Tamborine Boutique Hotel, a refined new retreat offering thoughtful touches, breathtaking views and curated experiences.
Perched on beautiful Tamborine Mountain, just an hour from Brisbane or the Gold Coast—there’s a chic new place to stay: The Tamborine. This boutique hotel is a fresh, stylish reimagining of a classic 1980s Hacienda-style motel, with 23 gorgeous rooms. Think luxe king beds, private balconies or terraces, and jaw-dropping mountain views.
Lazy (or active) days here are sorted. Lounge by the heated mineral pool, sip cocktails from the curated drinks menu or nibble on bar snacks in total style. Mornings kick off with a complimentary continental breakfast, and come sunset, it’s all about “Peacock O’clock” (yes, hosted aperitifs!).
Recently opened in December, The Tamborine comes from the creators of Victoria’s much-loved Cassis Red Hill on the Mornington Peninsula. Whether you’re a foodie, adventure-seeker, artisan enthusiast, wellness seeker, or just need a breather, you’ll find curated experiences perfect for unwinding or exploring.
“We want guests to leave feeling relaxed, connected, and excited to return,” says co-owner Nina Aberdeen. Sustainability is also key here, with thoughtful materials like Queensland plywood keeping the design eco-friendly and beautiful.
For a mid-week getaway, weekend escape, or even a dreamy wedding backdrop, take the scenic drive up the mountain and book your stay.
