19 Of The Best Sunshine Coast Airbnbs To Book In 2026

There’s nothing quite like waking after a restful night’s sleep on your Noosa getaway, padding quietly to your private outdoor deck and sipping the first coffee of the day while gazing right at the best river view. At this epic Sunshine Coast Airbnb you are, quite literally, on the riverfront. So close you could actually dive right on in—or bring your jet ski (the complex has a shared jetty you can use) and zoom around on top of it if you’re so inclined.

Your home away from home is a ground-level apartment that sleeps up to five adults which is pretty handy. It’s in a top spot, a mere 15-minute toddle to all the fun stuff on Gympie Terrace and a 25-minute stroll to the iconic Hastings Parade. Need another reason to book? There’s a shared heated lagoon-style pool at the apartment complex too. Woo!

You might not be able to escape to the wooded forests of Canada right now, but we've got the next best thing.

Your seriously cute cottage, which was built using mostly recycled materials, overlooks a dam and is surrounded by trees and wildlife.

Grab your book, fill up the outdoor bath and you might spot a wallaby grazing nearby. Once you’ve done wandering the town or hanging out by your fire pit, climb the steep stairs to your cosy bedroom in the loft and snuggle up in front of the smart TV.

Love the idea of an outdoor tub but not the actual being nude in nature part? Then this stunning stay in Buderim is for you.
