The hinterland retreat is ideally located, a 10 minute from Eumundi and 20 minute drive from Noosa. The magnificent views, stunning pool and delicious breakfast are only topped by its lovely host Paul who makes you feel very welcome.

We spent a remarkable Australia Day weekend at Alexandria Retreat. Paul was an amazing host, very welcoming and happy to assist. We are grateful for an early check in and a later check out. We were terribly sorry to miss two of the included breakfast due to our tours schedule as Paul is an excellent cook and our brekky was outstanding! The view from our room (we had the pool view room) was breathtaking overlooking the Noosa Headlands. Once we have spotted a kangaroo in the backyard! The pool is super clean and water was warm. Paul also offered the beach towels and even helped to do some urgent washing (avoid rainbow lorikeets flocks))). Some little remarks. The bed was a little too soft to our preferences. And drive up to the parking with care as there is a steep entrance. Thank you Paul for our fantastic weekend away! We will definitely come back!

Simply amazing!

Love everything about the accommodation. Infinity edge pool with amazing view. High quality amenities, bed, little treat provided like soft drinks, good quality tea, coffee and chocolate is really appreciated. The most amazing part is the breakfast. Wow! Paul the owner has put a lot of care and effort to provide us not only with with generous continental breakfast buffet. He also provided us with the most amazing cooked breakfast. I enjoyed the breakfast he cooked more than any of fancy restaurant or hotel I stayed have stayed in the past. Not to mention the view where the breakfast is served was just simply breathtaking.I would definately recommend this beautiful Bed and Breakfast if you are looking to stay somewhere than ine of those run of the mill accomodation.

Beautiful quiet spot

Great getaway, the location is so quiet. The owners couldn't do enough for us. The only small thing would have been nice to have Foxtel in the room so you could watch a movie in bed. Very nice overall.

Totally amazing

This was an amazing place. We booked a room & got a whole house! The views across to Noosa were fantastic. The bedroom was spacious with panoramic views. Upscale bathroom. Breakfasts to die for - nothing was too much trouble. Kookaburras waiting for your bacon scraps!!! Only disappointment was the pool was too cool to swim. So if you want to swim go in the summer months. I have to say this did not spoil our stay.

Hear the Serenity!

The room is just like the picture advertising the retreat. Clean. modern and comfortable. The staff made you feel very welcome the moment you walked up to the front door, showed us around and told us when breakfast would be served in the morning. Hear the serenity! it was so very quiet and the view magnificent, just the ticket for a couple who just wants to relax for the weekend. Complimentary tea and coffee of a very high standard is set up in your room with water, soft drinks available in the bar fridge, also complimentary. The bathroom was modern, clean with beautiful fresh towel with toiletries available if needed.
