The Escarpment Retreat

About

The Escarpment Retreat and Day Spa is a unique mountain rainforest sanctuary perched on top of Mt Tamborine. Set on four acres of botanical gardens and lush rainforest, complete with flowing stream, small waterfall and cliff views through the surrounding valleys as far as the Gold Coast and beyond. Complimentary wireless internet connection is available on all areas.

Featuring romantic chalet style villas, with a Balinese flavour, complemented by a dedicated Spa Pavilion, private Gold Class Cinema and spectacular tree house common room in the rainforest.

In addition to our villas, we have a newly renovated Edge House perched on a cliff with views as far as the coast and provide accommodation for up to 6 people in 3 bedrooms. It is designed for self catering, featuring two viewing platforms, fully equipped kitchen, log fireplaces, spa bath, 2 bathrooms, open plan dining and living rooms, and luxury appointments.

Your villa features 5 metre high ceilings, sandstone walls, cedar floors, a sunken lounge room with a wood fireplace, private balcony, king size four poster canopy bed, granite kitchenette, and a generous bathroom, complete with a large separate shower box plus a decadent double spa bath ideal for that reviving romantic bubble bath.

After a divine sleep, awake refreshed and enjoy a sumptuous gourmet homemade cooked breakfast in our dining room. Indulge in the complimentary cuisine including a range of juices, cereals, breads/toasts, condiments, fruit, yoghurt and a choice of four mains. Lastly, we offer smooth Arabica locally grown organic coffee freshly brewed and a selection of fine teas to complete your morning breakfast fare.

Enjoy dinner at one of the numerous nearby restaurants. If you would prefer, we also offer a delicious 2 course dinner for two delivered direct to your front door which is available on weekdays. Bookings are essential.

The Spa Pavilion offers a range of rejuvenating options including aromatherapy, hot stone, salt glow and deep tissue massage. Indulge yourself with a relaxing facial, the sensation of vichy shower or soak into a candle-lit Grecian spa bath.

Put your feet up in our Gold Class Cinema enjoying champagne and chocolates whilst watching a classic movie.

As you can see, one night is certainly not enough! We recommend a minimum of two to three nights to allow time to explore the local nearby mountain attractions including 6 wineries, art galleries, antique & bric-a-brac shops, cafes & restaurants, two breweries, organic coffee plantation, rainforest canopy walk, cheese factory and of course the many enchanting rainforest walks. There is even a 20 stop shuttle circuit where the bus stops at our reception every 45 minutes

At the Escarpment Retreat and Day Spa you will be treated to a truly memorable experience.
