21 Of The Most Romantic Getaways In Queensland

Ok, we are really dialling up the romance straight away. Our personal fave, Winnows Rise has been set up by its super hosts to be a tranquil, perfect spot to reconnect with your special someone or completely unplug from the hustle and bustle of day-to-day life.

The handmade woodfire pizza oven is perfectly placed for an easy dinner, while the stone hot tub overlooking dappled grazing land and views towards the Great Dividing Range is the spot for a glass of wine. There are heaps of indoor creature comforts at this Airbnb too, like snug interiors and luxurious linen robes and sheets, as well as the just-right cottage kitchen.

Wake up in French linen in your four-poster canopy bed at this romantic hideaway—where birdsong is the first thing you’ll hear. Your home away from home in the Sunshine Coast Hinterland was formerly a Buddhist-owned pineapple farm. Today, it’s a seriously lush Airbnb.

Bathe away the stresses of the day in your very own handmade outdoor bath. It’s big enough for two and has hot and cold water for all seasons. You might fancy whipping up a pizza for lunch in the outdoor pizza oven, but if your mind’s on other things, local grazing boxes are available for an extra fee when booked in advance.

Want to amp up the romance even more? The peeps that own this place can arrange a one-hour private photoshoot so your memories will live on.

It doesn't get much more cosy than this romantic rainforest retreat, with a wood-burning fireplace, claw-foot bathtub, and a gorgeous balcony to greet the local birdlife each day. There's even a shared bush plunge pool if you feel like taking a dip with forest views. 

The wooden cabin itself is peak cosy vibes, but still has all the mod-cons like a full kitchen, wi-fi, and Foxtel. Your Airbnb booking includes breakfast provisions and firewood, so all you need to bring is a good book and a few snacks for the ultimate switch-off getaway.

Check in to stunning views of the lush green rainforest at this safari-style tent accommodation in Queensland's Gold Coast Hinterland. You'll enjoy 180-degree views of Springbrook Mountain and Numinbah Valley, even while soaking in the gorgeous tub that can be completely opened up to the outside world. 

This romantic getaway has a projector so you can settle in for a movie, and a large deck for soaking in the views with a coffee or wine, but can of course be completely closed up when you want some privacy—or just to keep the bugs out. 

When you’re needing to score serious brownie points, Spicers Hidden Vale has everything you’d ever want for you and your plus one, from cabins with boujee spa baths to mountain biking trails and hiking.

If you’re a bit of a foodie, then you’ll want to make sure you book yourself in for dinner at Homage Restaurant, where everything is grown in the market garden onsite or collected from nearby farms—your tastebuds will tap-dance in happiness. All this plus two pools, a campfire under the stars, koala safaris, cheese and wine tastings and epic views? You'll achieve peak romance points at this Queensland abode.

If a friend has come back from Montville raving about a cottage getaway they experienced, chances are they’re talking about Narrows Escape. Why? Because everyone who stays there only says great things. Narrows Escape was officially named as Tripadvisor's 'Most Romantic Hotel In The World'  in 2021 and this cosy, hidden rainforest retreat that’s nestled in the Sunshine Coast Hinterland is nothing if not romantic.

Curl up in a hammock and read a book, tramp through the rainforest, or feast on all the goods crammed into gourmet hampers you can have made for an additional cost.

Tempting villa options include the Black Cockatoo—which comes with its own private heated pool and a black marble bath tub—and Dove, which has a spa pool on the deck surrounded by rainforest vistas.

Nestled in the hills of the Sunshine Coast Hinterland, this romantic getaway is designed to be a place for you to hit the reset button and connect with your loved ones.

With a circular above-ground pool overlooking the lush forest and paddocks, you’ll instantly drift away into your own world of peace and serenity—it doesn’t get much better than that.

After a dip in the pool, end the night with a relaxing bath or a rain shower—and a drink or two—to fully immerse yourself in the experience, with a wood-burning fireplace for those cool winter nights as well. Ditch the electronics and book your stay now. 

So, you want to experience a sustainable, tiny house vacation in Queensland, but you’re not quite ready to give up the hot tub and the air-con? No problem. Soak your stresses away at Palmer & Gunn, a hidden gem tucked away in the Gold Coast Hinterland just outside Springbrook National Park.

Outdoor hot tub? Check. Luxurious bedding? Check. A burbling creek as your only background noise? Check. Soaking in the aforementioned hot-tub under the stars right next to said creek? Now we’re talking, and we’re packing our bags already.

Gilberton Outback Retreat is the perfect place for a digital detox—if you’ve got the coin to pay for it. Perched on a bluff overlooking the Gilbert River, this luxurious getaway offers uninterrupted panoramic views of the surrounding rugged landscape. All activities and meals are inclusive, including their 4WD Buggy Safari and Gold Mining and Fossicking Tour.

There’s plenty to see and do in the area; we recommend a trip to Cobbold Gorge, or an Outback Tour From Above. Retreat to your room to nibble on your complimentary welcome platter as you don a luxurious fluffy bathrobe and matching slippers. 

This cosy cabin buried within a rainforest just outside of Springbrook National Park is the perfect Queensland escape for lovebirds.

Alure Stanthorpe is the only way to do a wine-filled, romantic country getaway, if you ask us. The luxe villas and glamping tents are nestled away just a five-minute drive from the centre of Stanthorpe but feel delightfully secluded.

Expect fresh, locally sourced breakfast in your villa each morning, as well as fluffy bathrobes, L'Occitane toiletries, Netflix, magazines and a GHD hair straightener, with a BBQ for cooking up a feast. Plus, they're surrounded by the Granite Belt's best wineries. Honestly, we can't even.

Jaws will drop as you enter the majestic 12km driveway of Spicers Peak Lodge. Located 1,100 metres above sea-level in South East Queensland (just over two hours from the Gold Coast), Spicers Peak offers the height of luxury via its all-inclusive holiday styling.

Melt into a treatment at Spa Anise, dine at award-winning restaurant, The Peak, explore the surrounds with a gourmet picnic hamper in hand, or alternate between the pool and tennis court for some localised fun. C'mon, you can't get much more romantic than this.

Fancy treating your loved one to a private, luxury farm stay? This romantic spot—around an hour’s drive from Caloundra, Queensland—is packed with goodies for a dreamy escape.

Each suite has its own balcony or verandah where you can take in those views, as well as a fireplace, kitchenette, lounge area and ensuite.
