THE
​PROPERTY

Situated on 27 acres on the side of a mountain, Rainforest Gardens takes in spectacular views of the bay. The gardens have been lovingly curated for decades, with rare plants, beautiful flowers & greenery covering almost 5 acres of the property. 

The property stretches to the top of the mountain, with dense bushland home to furry friends; including wallabies, koalas, possums & beautiful bird life. Look to the top of the mountain, and you'll often see hawks circling the sky. 

You'll find our Amphitheatre garden nestled amongst the palms, forming its own oasis. Our Amphitheatre seating is unique and provides seating for up to 130 guests, with a professional built in sound system and wireless microphone. This area is perfect for a garden wedding ceremony or an intimate function, or simply a stunning spot to wander through or set up a picnic when you're here for an overnight accommodation stay with us in our chalets.

The Pavilion was constructed in 2015, and is an open-air, undercover space, purpose built for wedding receptions and functions. Complete with fans, heaters, sound system, and bar. You'll see our exposed roof beams as you look out towards the view; taking in Coochiemudlo Island, Macleay Island & Stradbroke Island. 

Our four unique luxury chalets were constructed in 2020, providing accommodation for our wedding and functions guests, as well as the general public. Set adjacent to our forty year old hoop pine forest, with breathtaking views to Moreton Bay, you can curl up in front of the fireplace and soak up the serenity. 

We couldn't be happier with how the day turned out; it was absolutely perfect. The food was delicious, and the flowers were better than I could have imagined! Everyone couldn't stop talking about how beautiful the venue was and the amazing food. This venue has everything you need and they are beyond helpful throughout the whole process. Such a fantastic team to work with for planning a wedding. Thank you again so much.
