Kondalilla Eco Resort

From the photos we were expecting quiet cabins surrounded by nature. There is nature/forest off the balcony. But the cabins are not private. You are in close proximity to others. Leave your curtains open and we felt as though we were in a fish bowl. Cars parking behind us. People walking behind us. Cabins next to us could see in. The cabins were in need of a good clean. Mould all over them. I know it's in a rainforest area but for how much you pay I think they should be better maintained. I'm sick of resorts demanding you take out rubbish and wash dishes/glasses or a cleaning fee will be charged. It's not airbnb it was a resort. A very expensive night I don't want to pay all that money to empty rubbish and wash a couple of glasses. It always makes me question the cleanliness of the glasses as people may not put them through a dishwasher or wash them properly. Super comfortable bed (we like a soft bed) , nice staff. The restaurant was excellent. Accom worth the money?... no it wasn't.

Absolutely brilliant place to stay on the Sunshine Coast. Hinterland unique with Rainforest experience and Kondalilla Falls. Easy commute to Sunshine Coast beaches. Restaurant excellent food, drinks and live music. Beautiful pools and sauna. Staff so friendly and helpful. One of the best holiday venues ever

My partner and I stayed in a Family Room at Kondalilla Eco Resort last weekend. From the moment we walked in we were completely appalled. The room was located on the main internal road of the resort and had absolutely no privacy! The main reason we booked this "resort" was for a couples getaway in a beautiful scenic forest location. The photos on the resort website DO NOT show the view from these rooms. We had no forest view, no balcony, we looked out to large water tanks, piles of rubble and the road. Anyone driving past could see straight into the room, so to get any privacy you needed to shut all blinds - which we did. Why would anyone pay hundreds of dollars a night in an "eco resort" to have no view whatsoever!! Very, very disappointed. To top it off the neighbours held a birthday party the second night we were there with over 15 guests singing and playing music late into the night.

After purchasing 4-5 gift vouchers through this resort, my parents were unable to use the voucher due to my father having a serious heart condition and needing recovery. They were not even 2 weeks late; my father reached out to them and Groupon to be told "no this has expired it will not be honoured". After i have spent thousands with both organisations it took over a month to basically be told we dont want your business. A horrible situation for someone excited to utilise and already being through so much. I wouldn't go near this place nor would I recommend any means of prepayment.

This must be our 5th or 6th visit to the resort. It never appears to pale in our minds. We were in tree house 22 this time. It was spotless, The bed was very comfortable. The couch was a little difficult to get out of, but that might be my age. Sitting on the extensive deck was very relaxing. The only sounds are those of the native Forest. The weather was bright and clear every day. It so calming to watch the wind stir the trees. Even when we've visited in th rain, it has been a pleasure. It's location is perfect. It is only minutes from Montville, Flaxton and Mapleton and they all have very interesting and enjoyable places to see, dine and shop. Lake Baroon and Mapleton national park are a short drive away The entrance to Kondalilla Falls National park backs onto the resort. The restaurant has a great menu and Sunday lunchtime music. The only downside it is only opened Thursday to Sunday. However, there are many other options nearby. The lack of wifi is a bit of an issue and reception for mobile date can be a bit tricky. We go there to get away from a lot of that, so it isn't really a big issue for us.

We have stayed at Kondalilla eco-resort several times. The rooms are well-designed and perfectly appointed with rainforest views all around. A calm and restorative environment. The on-site restaurant is fantastic as is the Sunday afternoon music. And on top of this, it is located on the doorstep on the national park- perfect for an early morning walk or hike! Just wonderful!
