Guest Reviews
- Katerina Nisina Garkhad (10/5): - מקום מאוד יפה, מתאים לזוג. בית נקי מסודר עד הפרט האחרון. נוח בגישה למסלולי טבע ובילויים. שקט, טבע והרבה ציפורים עושה טוב לגוף ולנפש.
- Griffin (9/5): Very relaxed atmosphere - Owners were wonderful from arrival to departure. Its in a quiet area but was only 10mins drive to where we needed to go. Bed was a little softer than were used too but still comfy.

- Nicola (10/5): -
- PEDRO (10/5): -
- Claire (10/5): I would do it again. - The property was beautiful - the spa bathroom was a treat. More than anything it was Helen and Peter who made my stay perfect with an incredible breakfast I had the option of taking on my private breakfast terrace, and amazing recommendations of where to go. Some of the other guests were louder than expected in the main area, but not unduly so.
- Paul (10/5): Very beautiful, quiet location, magnificent garden, delightful, friendly hosts great stay -
- Alexandra (10/5): Affordable, stylish and cosy country BB - The bed was the most comfortable bed I’ve slept on in a long time. The host was lovely and the overall accommodation was gorgeous.

- Vicki (10/5): A lovely B & B, great breakfast & wonderful hosts! - Continental breakfast was fantastic! A large comfortable room with assessable kitchen, lounge and sitting room. Noisy adjoining guests
- Jhon (10/5): Relaxing and great location. - Our stay at Mountain Sanctuary was excellent, we went to relax and have a peaceful weekend away, and not only tambourine area was really enjoyable, we felt l;like home when we came back to the accommodation, and Helen was really helpful. We would go back in a heartbeat.
The location was really good, and the facilities in the B&B where amazing, clean, and in a great condition Nothing to dislike

- Gregory (10/5): Thank you Helen and Peter for a very relaxing stay - The property was beautiful so inviting. Central to everything and a lovely breakfast as well. Without a doubt Peter and Helen were the nicest hosts I have come across and so very kind and helpful. Absolutely nothing
- Graham (10/5): Excellent location and beautiful property -
- Laurel's (9/5): Very comfortable, a lovely setting and short walk to local shops. - Breakfast options varied and plentiful. The kitchen was perfect for us and the lounge areas and dining room excellent.
The pademelons and cockatoos provided entertainment during breakfast, plus the outside eating area was excellent.
Our room was very comfortable and super clean.
Hosts Helen and Peter friendly and helpful. The weather extremely wet for our 2 night visit and limited our exploration of the area. Luck of the draw!
- Walsh (10/5): Fantastic stay - We loved the setting and the room was fantastic 👏 and clean. Helen and Peter are so friendly and welcoming. Will definitely recommend a stay at their beautiful place. Room had a patio that is also secluded. Nothing we did not like.
- Leanne (9/5): Superb - Fantastic weekend spent here. Helen and hubby are very friendly and welcoming.
Room was great and the spa bath was blissful.
Breakfast was delicious and very filling.
We will be back - thanks very much for a fantastic stay.
- Michael (10/5): A Nice Rest - Wonderful. Peaceful place to Stay. Breakfast was fantastic.
- Alan (10/5): Exceptional -
- June (10/5): A perfect stay - I loved the layout of the Mountain Sanctuary B&B. It has a communal lounge with a fireplace, a communal kitchen with a fridge, microwave and kitchen utensils etc, a communal TV room, a BBQ area.
Helen and Peter, our hosts, were very friendly and helpful. They also gave us a bottle of local Sparkling Wine to celebrate our 50th Wedding Anniversary.
The Continental Breakfast was plentiful and Helen ensured we had warm croissants every morning.
There are only 3 Suites and ours was the biggest Suite, The Palm Grove Suite which was located on a corner of the house so we had nice views of the Garden and a balcony with table and chairs. Our Suite had a Spa bath which we didn't use unfortunately, a couple of bottles of water, a variety of tea sachets, coffee sachets, a small carton of milk, toiletry items.
The location was only a couple of minutes drive to Gallery Walk on Mt Tambourine with quirky shops galore, Cafes, Restaurants etc. The mattress and chairs were a bit soft for us with back and mobility issues but I resolved that with putting pillows on the chair.
- James (9/5): Superb -
- Karen (10/5): Exceptional -
- Angie (10/5): Exceptional -
- Shannon (8/5): Very good -
- Luke (10/5): Exceptional -
- Flanagan (10/5): 100% reccommend this to any couples wanting to have a relaxing wedding anniversary weekend away! - The location was stunning! My husband and I had a beautiful wedding anniversary weekend away and this place exceeded our expectations. Everything was perfect! Especially the delish hot breakfast delivered to us each morning! 10/10! Nothing, this place was perfect.
- Lorraine (9/5): Excellent ! - Breakfast excellent
Great hostess Couldn’t reach the blinds behind spa bath
Had to get husband to climb into bath to close
Need some kind of “stick” to close ‘
Pathways are
Not safe to walk to restaurants at night
Would be great if the hosts had liquor license - could stay there !!!
- Donna (10/5): Exceptional - Beautiful peaceful surroundings. Nothing.
- Elle (10/5): - Absolutely perfect. I really wish we could have stayed longer. It's been a few weeks now and I still find myself wishing I was back there.
- Nikki (10/5): - Hosts were friendly and made a wonderful breakfast. The place was beautifully furnished and comfortable.

- Della (10/5): The owners of the facility were friendly and very accommodating - Great value and very tasty
- Gage (9/5): Superb -
- Lisa (10/5): Exceptional -
- Baad (6/5): Pleasant - The owners were lovely, and the location was good, close to the gallery walk. The spa was awesome. The glasses and cups, towels, and linen were clean, and the room had a nice character. The toilet wasn't clean when we arrived at night. disgusting. However I asked them in the morning and they came kindly to clean it, but even after that, they didn't clean it properly!!! (The photos are after cleaning!) Inside the cabinets and all the corners were so dirty too.
The bed was so wobbly! We couldn’t get a good sleep over our stay.
It's a B&B! But the breakfast was only a very limited continental breakfast, and we had to pay for cooked dishes.
It's a very dated accommodation, yes! Don't expect the useless aircon to keep you even close to a relaxing temperature.
Something basic, like a wine opener, could be a lovely addition to the room.
- Mikaela (10/5): A lovely getaway from the hustle bustle of the city, the perfect place to relax and enjoy nature - A beautiful selection of books and board games to choose from, as well a gorgeous spa bath to relax and unwind!
- Guy (10/5): Exceptional - Good No handle to get out of the spa
- Jeff (10/5): - Great Host
- Chelsea (9/5): Superb - The owners were extremely friendly and accommodating. We felt at home there as we had everything we needed.
- Sarah (10/5): Peaceful, private and perfect. We will be back. - This place was a real Sanctuary- we had a wonderful room with a spa bath en-suite and the house was immaculate and had everything we needed. We had the continental breakfast (included) which was plentiful and tasty and we also had a cooked breakfast (extra) one day, brought to our room which was freshly prepared and delicious. Nothing
- Robert (10/5): Really friendly and welcoming - great homely atmosphere and thoughtful amenities. - Breakfast was delicious. Location was convenient.
- Adam (9/5): Superb -
- Janet (9/5): See above - Great breakfast in the lovely sun-room Nothing not to like about this place. We had a wonderful two nights in the spacious Palm Grove suite. We will be back.
- Gary (10/5): WONDERFUL STAY. - Faultless, everything we needed. Very pleasant owners who couldn't of done anymore to make our stay memorable. Thank you. The room was excellent, quiet, clean and comfortable. There was nothing not to like! Excellent service and beautiful gardens.
- Heather (10/5): Exceptional - A beautiful prppety, owners were lovely, breakfast had a good variety and the location is close to everything in Mt Tamborine
- Robert (10/5): Exceptional - The accommodation was exceptional a fully shared house, kitchen, lounge and dining area, very comfortable bedroom, king size bed, large bathroom with a spa.
Located in the heart of Tamborine close to Gallery Walk, eating places, wineries, water falls.
The hosts were very friendly, hospitality next to none, breakfast wonderfully prepared and delicious. Nothing to want for.
- Paula (9/5): Superb -
- Lauren (10/5): Quiet Stay in the Mountain - This B&B is an absolute delight. Set back from the road and surrounded by vegetation, it is super quiet on the grounds. Offering only 3 rooms, the noise level from other guests is also minimal. The provided breakfast was fresh and delicious, offering coffee and tea, juice, fresh fruit, and fixings for toast. The decor is a little aged, so if you’re after something super modern this may not be for you. Super cozy with lots to do around; nothing on the mountain takes long to get to.
- Daniel (10/5): Utterly relaxing and peaceful. - Excellent location. Quiet, peaceful and utterly relaxing. Lovely breakfast and easy drives to the wineries and restaurants. Clean, cool and would love to come back in the winter months to enjoy the open fireplace. Nothing… just lovely.
- Sonia (9/5): Superb -
- Vera (10/5): Met our needs. - Cleanliness and comfort. Nothing.
- Lynette (10/5): We will be recommending this B&B to all our friends. - Everything about this accommodation was beyond our expectations. Breakfast, facilities, hosts, location and service. Everything was to our satisfaction.
- Kellett (10/5): Exceptional - Felt like a nice getaway Nothing
- Montana (9/5): Superb -
- Delaney (10/5): Book in advance and don't miss out on this amazing place. - The Breakfast was amazing.
The best continental breakfast ever. Lovely seating area inside and outside.
Warm and inviting, soft music in the background while watching the bird outside fly in for their breakfast at the same time.
If you didn't want to stay in your room. There were other rooms to relax in.
The Spa bath in the room was a great way to finish your evening. Well done Helen and Pete
- Regina (10/5): Delightful - Thanks Peter and Helen for your warm welcoming hospitality. Mountain Sanctuary Bed and Breakfast is just lovely. Top notch! We hope to see you again.
- Emily (10/5): A home away from home! - The hosts were lovely and so friendly and accommodating - we felt so at home at the retreat and the facilities were amazing - coffee in the room, a beautiful spa bath and peaceful balcony listening to the birds. Definitely a great stay for parents needing a break from the norm!
- Ruth (9/5): Superb -
- Lynette (10/5): The most memorable stay ever. Not only because of the accommodation, but as our hosts, Helen & Pete were the best yo - The facilities and added extras in our room were so appreciated. With extra space in both the bedroom and bathroom and the lovely private balcony for a cuppa or a meal. We also appreciated the kitchenette and large lounging spaces to comfortably chat with our friends while we caught up with the days activities. Not a thing.
- Kei (10/5): Exceptional -
- Ben (10/5): Exceptional -
- Trav (10/5): Awesome place to stay, highly recommend - The included breakfast was awesome. A lovely quiet location that was very close to everything. We really enjoyed our stay. Highly recommend, the hosts were very friendly and our room was great. Nothing
- James (8/5): Nice hideaway to Rest and reset! - 1) Amazing Host. Helen was very nice to deal with and responded quickly to emails
2) Ideal location (quiet & close to shops and walking tracks)
3) Good value for money
4) Clean and well maintained rooms
5) Netflix in room was a great idea
6) Good to be able to access a BBQ for cooking meals 1) The bench space in the rooms to prepare meals and coffee was not practical
2) The room fridge was too small
3) Air Conditioning in the room not working properly
4) Maybe a little more variety to the Continental breakfast would help (eg fruit)
- Elizabeth (10/5): Great Location - Great location, near Gallery Walk and restaurants. Clean and comfortable suite. Great breakfast!

- Marten (10/5): Beautiful accommodation, peaceful environment and delightful continental breakfast. - We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Mountain Sanctuary B&B. The location of the property is great. We walked to the restaurants, shops and Fortitude brewery on Long Road (The Gallery Walk). The Palm Grove rainforest walking circuit is only 100 m down the road. Further shops and restaurants are only 3 km (5 mins drive) away. The hosts, Helen & Peter, are very welcoming people and do their best to make you feel at home. It was great to enjoy breakfast with the birds having their breakfast outside the window of the breakfast room. Nothing! We had a great time.
- Bethany (10/5): Exceptional - Stunning property, with outstanding interiors and maximum comfort. great location in tambourine with beautiful forest walk right outside the door. Bedrooms were beautifully decorated and bathroom and baths great! Hosts were so welcoming and available for any enquiries. beautiful breakfast with the birds. Cannot recommend enough.
- Anonymous (10/5): Absolutely wonderful experience! - Helen and Peter were amazing.
They let us check in early as we had arrived earlier than expected.
We had both breakfast options during our stay and they were honestly the best breakfasts I’ve ever had. Lots of options to choose from. And the music playlist they had playing during breakfast was lovely.
The bed was so comfortable and the pillows were amazing, very soft.
The private bathroom was very spacious. The spa bath was superb. I am 5 foot 8 and was able to stretch out completely with room to spare. Shower pressure was strong, and the shower itself was huge.
The private balcony was absolutely beautiful.
The room itself was completely sound proof which was great.
They had undercover parking and the grounds themselves were flat and everything was easily accessible.
The property and surrounding areas were breathtaking.
Had everything I could want and more and will definitely be back if I’m ever in QLD again.
- Neil (10/5): Fabulous accommodation and great hosts - This place is fabulous - Helen and Peter are great hosts. The room was very comfortable and well appointed - comfy bed, massive bathroom, undercover balcony with seating - all the comforts of home plus more. The included continental breakfast was comprehensive and a great way to start the day. Also included are undercover parking for the car and great gardens.
- Ian (10/5): - Mountain Sanctuary was a lovely place to stay. Our hosts, Helen and Peter, were extremely friendly and helpful. The property was central to most of the sights and activities in the area. I'd thoroughly recommend it.

The hosts, Helen & Peter, are the loveliest people. They’re extremely friendly, helpful and knowledgeable of the area. The attention to detail in our suite was amazing, we didn’t want for anything. The amenities are spot on and so very clean. The position of the property is great. We walked to shops and cafes as well as the rainforest circuit. It’s the best B&B we’ve stayed in. —-
- Alan (10/5): - This is a delightful place to stay in Tamborine Mountain. It's quiet and very tastefully decorated. A short stroll to some shops, and a slightly longer stroll to gallery walk. The breakfast was yummy and it was lovely sitting in the garden enjoying it. Can't wait to return.
