Agent Tips

  • The Glasshouse Mountains are just a short drive away and offer some of the best hiking in the Sunshine Coast Hinterland.
Accommodations

Rainforest villas amidst the sounds of the hinterland.

Spicers Tamarind's accommodation captures the natural serenity of the Australian rainforest, with a touch of Asian-inspired style woven throughout. Private villas are nestled within the trees, enjoying a genuinely secluded base for exploring the Sunshine Coast Hinterland. Each villa comes with a private veranda, separate lounge areas, and cozy fireplaces.
Pool

Cool mountain air and warm water.

Spicers Tamarind's pool is a peaceful retreat in its own right, an outdoor infinity pool with a warm spa attached, heated to around 100 degrees Fahrenheit, set against the backdrop of the Sunshine Coast Hinterland.
Restaurant + Bar

Regional Thai flavors in the heart of the rainforest.

The Tamarind is the heart of the retreat, a relaxed but joyful celebration of Thai cooking that draws deeply from the enchanting flavors of the country's varied regions. Sweet, sour, bitter, and salty come together with the kind of considered layering that matches the very best menus from Thailand.

Spicers Tamarind's bar sits surrounded by lush gardens and greenery, ideal for a pre-dinner drink or a quiet nightcap in the cool mountain air.
  • Vibe
    A Queensland rainforest experience with an Asian influence.
  • Who's it for?
    Spicers Tamarind is a natural fit for couples looking for a genuinely restorative escape thanks to the property's seclusion, hot tubs, and the heated spa. Wellness enthusiasts will appreciate the unhurried pace and rainforest setting, while food lovers will find plenty to keep them at the table at The Tamarind.
  • Location
    A short drive from the Australia Zoo, local wineries and breweries, Maleny Golf Club, and the bush walks and hikes of the Glasshouse Mountains, Spicers Tamarind offers plenty of reasons to venture out, though the rainforest walkways and garden grounds make it equally tempting to stay put.
