Overview

Pethers Rainforest Retreat | Luxury Adults-Only Treehouse Getaway on Tamborine Mountain

Pethers Rainforest Retreat is a luxury adults-only boutique accommodation located in the heart of Tamborine Mountain, Queensland. Hidden within five hectares of lush subtropical rainforest, this secluded retreat is designed specifically for couples seeking romance, privacy, and tranquility. Just over an hour’s drive from Brisbane and only 30 minutes from the Gold Coast, Pethers offers the perfect blend of natural beauty and modern comfort. With its treehouse-style accommodation, on-site fine dining restaurant, and immersive rainforest setting, it has become one of the most sought-after romantic getaways in the Gold Coast Hinterland.

Luxury Treehouse Accommodation

The retreat features just ten private and architecturally designed luxury treehouses, each one elevated among the treetops to provide a feeling of complete seclusion. Every treehouse includes floor-to-ceiling five-metre-high glass windows that frame panoramic views of the surrounding rainforest, creating a sense of peace and harmony with nature. The interiors are thoughtfully designed with polished timber floors, a plush king-size bed, an inviting lounge area, and a freestanding spa bath built for two. Guests can relax in front of a cozy gas fireplace or enjoy their private outdoor balcony, which offers an ideal setting for morning coffee or a glass of wine at sunset. Each treehouse also comes equipped with modern comforts such as reverse-cycle air conditioning, flat-screen television with a DVD player, and ambient lighting, ensuring a luxurious and comfortable stay in all seasons. These treehouses are purpose-built for adults only, making them ideal for honeymoons, anniversaries, and romantic weekend escapes.

Dining and Culinary Experiences

Pethers Rainforest Retreat is home to the renowned Rainforest Restaurant, a fine dining venue built around a grand open fireplace and surrounded by glass walls that immerse diners in the beauty of the forest. The restaurant features a seasonal, locally inspired menu crafted with regional produce, offering a refined dining experience that matches the natural elegance of the setting. For guests seeking a more intimate or private option, in-room dining is available, with gourmet meals delivered directly to the treehouse. The retreat also offers tailored dining enhancements such as romantic dinner packages, picnic hampers, and curated breakfast baskets.

Wellness and Romantic Enhancements

In addition to exceptional accommodation and dining, Pethers Rainforest Retreat provides a range of wellness and relaxation experiences. Guests can book spa treatments including full-body massages, hot stone therapy, and aromatherapy, all of which can be enjoyed within the comfort of their own treehouse or outside on the balcony amid the sights and sounds of the rainforest. Romance packages are also available and include thoughtful extras such as rose petals, champagne, spa bath setups, and special desserts to make any occasion more memorable.

Events, Weddings, and Group Stays

Pethers is also a popular venue for boutique weddings, elopements, and small group celebrations. Its unique rainforest location, elegant function spaces, and full-service event coordination make it one of the most enchanting wedding venues in Tamborine Mountain. The main lodge and outdoor ceremony spaces offer options for gatherings of up to 80 guests. For groups or wedding parties, the newly renovated Pethers House is available for exclusive hire.
