The Castle on Tamborine

Forget what they say about a decadent breakfast delivered to room daily. There is no breakfast at all. Instead they give you a voucher to go to a cafe a few kilometers up the road. Not exactly what you want on a cold and wet day. No daily ho8use keeping at all and never anyone in reception. The carpark was a mudpit. The water tastes digusting with the managers excuse its the tanins from the leaves in the gutters which the water is collected. When you fill the spa bath it looks like a cup of tea with the stained water. Only half of the lights worked and no waterfall working in the plunge pool. Again the manager blamed a storm that happened 7 months ago. There is no shelter from the elements on either the balcony or courtyard. Just hard wire type seats and a 1 old plastic bananna lounge. The entertainment system all worked off one remote control which was a torture to get to work with a poor quality projector beaming onto the wall for the TV. The main bedroom had a TV with a screen the sized of my PC screen with little channel reception. The bed had a large lump running the full length og the bed. The fireplace couldnt be lit due to the wet wood supplied. Never again. I have stayed in most places at Tamborine Mountain and never have come across the disgusting water problem.

This place is amazing, we were blown away with how beautiful it is. It had everything you needed and made us feel like we were in a real castle. The complementary breakfast vouchers came in very useful at Spice Of Life Cafe which was also amazing. The owner was so helpful, we will definitely be back in the future.

Was a little hesitant to visit tamborine mt after hearing about the storms over xmas. when driving up the mt could see the aftermath and houses taken out. When we arrived we were surprised how beautiful the gardens were. Our room was amazing! My girlfriend loved the big spa and attention to detail and I loved the heated pool. Also private cinema!! Yummy bottle of champagne waiting in the fridge also breakfast and some tastings at the winery up the road were a pleasant surprise. We enjoyed the bubbles watching the sun set. The manager gave us some local recommendations which was helpful. We now have a new favorite getaway!!!
