The Islander Noosa Resort

8/10 Good

"Poor toilet paper no paper towels broken door lock otherwise perfect"

Ivory Palms Resort

8/10 Good

"Ivory Palms was a nice place to stay as far as the facilities go,Family friendly & staff were easy to get on with. The actual unit was in need of an update. The carpet was very stained & in general needed a deep clean. It was comfortable very near Noosaville. We has a 2 bedroom unit with a balcony upstairs & a patio downtairs."

Royal Mail Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room, lovely staff and convenient location. Heaps of parking and the bar/outdoor dining area is fabulous with a lovely view of the river."

Netanya Noosa Beachfront Resort

10/10 Excellent

"We did a last minute check for accommodation in Noosa and found a great deal for 2 nights. Helpful and friendly staff, great room over looking the beach + a very modern and clean apartment."

Noosa Lakes Resort

10/10 Excellent

"good size studio, and very clean, great pools. Being downstairs it does hear walking and furniture movement noise from upstairs apartments."

Peppers Noosa Resort and Villas

8/10 Good

"Everything was wonderful, I would have thought breakfast would have been inclusive considering the price but that was ok. I was admittedly disappointed in the fruit salad and cheese platter that was ordered to the room... not much and not tasty for the price."

South Pacific Resort & Spa Noosa

8/10 Good

"Lovely property and we enjoyed our stay, but knowing what we know now, if we returned we would ask for the following: - An upper level room. Ground floor rooms hear every footstep from above and if people are early risers or night owls, you will need earplugs to sleep. - A room with a comfortable couch. Our unit had what I can only describe as outdoor furniture as their lounge suite. It looked great but was very uncomfortable and not a place to relax in the evening. - A room away from restaurant. The noise from diners and the cooking odours were off putting. Otherwise we had a lovely time. The staff were exceptional and the grounds beautiful."

Elysium Noosa Resort - MGallery Collection

10/10 Excellent

"10/10 great spot near Sunshine Coast airport, literally on the beach, nice pool, great rooms, family friendly - will stay again (for longer)!"

Villa Noosa Hotel

8/10 Good

"Room was clean and beds made up every day. Bathroom looking a bit tired. Kettle and fridge but no microwave"

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Cooloola National Park?

The best area to stay in Cooloola National Park is the Rainbow Beach township, which serves as the primary gateway to the park and offers a range of visitor services.Rainbow Beach is a small coastal town situated at the southern end of the Cooloola Great Walk and provides direct access to Fraser Island via ferry. The main street, Rainbow Beach Road, is where you'll find most of the shops, cafes, and tour operators. It's known for its colored sand cliffs, particularly the "Carlo Sand Blow" which offers expansive views. This area is ideal for families looking for convenience and access to beach activities.Families will find Rainbow Beach particularly suitable due to its accessible beach, calm swimming areas, and amenities like playgrounds and picnic spots. Many accommodations offer family-friendly configurations, and tour operators based here can arrange excursions suitable for all ages, including dolphin feeding experiences and guided tours of the park's natural features.For those seeking a more secluded and nature-focused experience, camping within Cooloola National Park itself is an option, particularly at sites like Teewah Beach or Freshwater Campgrounds. These locations offer a more primitive experience without the amenities of a town, requiring self-sufficiency.

When is the best time to go to Cooloola National Park?

The best time to visit Cooloola National Park is during the cooler, drier months from April to October.During this period, the weather is more consistently pleasant, with less humidity and fewer rainy days. This makes it ideal for activities like hiking along the Cooloola Great Walk or exploring the sand dunes and colored sands of Teewah Beach without the discomfort of intense heat or sudden downpours. The milder temperatures are particularly good for families with young children, allowing for comfortable outdoor play and exploration.For those interested in fishing or exploring the waterways by kayak, these months also offer calmer conditions on the Noosa River and its estuaries, especially around Lake Cootharaba.
