Spicers Tamarind Retreat

Great accomodation. We stayed in a 2 bedroom (Villa 11), for 3 people. Each bedroom had its own en suite. Beds were really comfy. Parking was plentiful. Staff were so helpful. Dinner was exceptional, very tasty. Seating was very spacious and a bar for a pre dinner drink. Would definitely go back. Dinner, bed and breakfast package is very worth the money. Only negative feedback was the air conditioning. Couldn’t get a lot of warmth from them. Fire place was a bit smoky for us. Minor issues really

We stayed at the hotel for 5 nights in late February. The villa was very nice and we got lucky to get one in the front row. A comfortable recliner on the terrace would have been nice, but apart from that the location and villa was fantastic. The service unfortunately, while in most cases friendly, was not up to the standards. Most service personnel really tried their best, but it was clear that most were not trained to work in a 5* hotel. While we are not snobs expecting the ultimate experience, you would expect a level of service quality that is at least similar to a 5* city hotel that offers rooms at a third of the Spicers Tamarind hotel. It was largely the small things - we had to ask for a few things repeatedly, on the day of my 50th birthday (staff knew about it) it would have been a nice gesture to get maybe at least a little up candle with breakfast or at dinner, but there was just nothing at all. When you stay 5 nights around such an event it feels a bit disappointing. Food was good on most days, but a bit repetitive when you stay that long. At least we managed to get a table at the Montville hotel. On the first day the deserts were clearly many days too long in the fridge and completely dried out, since we got very different versions of the same on our last day. All in all a great hotel in an even better location, but for the money you pay you would expect a far better experience. Did we enjoy our stay? Yes. Would we come back? Don’t think so

A lovely stay all round d.

Very nice location in the heart of the Sunshine Coast mountains very quite place in the forest, close to Gardner falls. Room nicely equipped with outside hot spa, fireplace, separate lounge, small kitchenette with Nepresso coffee machine, good range of lose leaf tea, full minibar, large shower. Quit location for resourcing. Nice walk in the park and to the nearby Gardners Falls (prized by local for swimming). Be aware of restaurant closed on Monday and Tuesday and so no room service avec 6pm on Monday and Tuesday. Very nice restaurant with Thai/Asian fusion chef style cuisine, full of flavors and interesting spicy mix. The staff is very helpful and caring.

Wow other then a few adjustments to our screen door needed it was excellent

The food was excellent and the staff were super friendly. Great location, short walk to the river and lots to see and do nearby.
