Escape O’Reilly’s at The scenery of this luxurious resort is reminiscent of a real-life Fern Gulley fairy tale, encircled by an ancient rainforest dripping in fresh water and shards of sunlight, and echoing nature’s call in the crisp mountain air. By evening, as the darkening mountains emboss against the sky’s luminescent red fabric like coal on a fire, the forest begins to sleep under a sky of ink and twilight. O’Reilly’s location is telling of its owners’ passion for ecotourism. Outlined by 160kms of walking trails and over 500 crystal waterfalls, the retreat, which is owned and run by the ecotourism pioneering O’Reilly family, shares its home with over 250 species of Australian wildlife. O’Reilly’s has become renowned for its fantastic and uniquely Australian hospitality for over 85 years, rendering itself an international benchmark for ecotourism and relaxation retreats. The retreat harmonises the traditional warmth and charm of a small guesthouse with the vanguard design of a modernistic tree house, making it both visually captivating and addictively cosy. The retreat focuses wholeheartedly on nature, and packages include early morning bird walks, afternoon rainforest walks and evening audio-visual presentations. To punctuate each activity with a note of relaxation, each day includes country style morning and afternoon tea. Located just 500 metres from the Retreat, O’Reilly’s Villas are luxurious self-contained two and three bedroom villas with rainforest or valley views. Each villa features a full kitchen, lounge and dining area plus large balcony TRAVEL Located in the World Heritage listed Lamington National Park, tucked away in the Gold Coast Hinterland, O’Reilly’s Rainforest Retreat, Villas and Lost World Spa truly is the ideal getaway to relax, revive and rejuvenate.
