What Other Guests Are Saying
“What an absolutely picturesque stay. We loved every minute of our hinterland escape. It was a wonderful getaway with family - but also ended up being a truly unexpected romantic one with a stunning backyard proposal surrounded by our loved ones! I cannot wait to come back.”

“We loved cooking up a storm in their incredible kitchen. We visit the local market that day after a winery tour at Clouds, and collected local produce. We made the most incredible meal from locally sourced produce and ate on the balcony over sunset… I just can’t even tell you how refreshed we are following our few days at Waterfall Lodge. Maleny - we will be back!”

“Another stunning getaway - Welcome Ready your team have made yet another incredible family memory for us. We just stayed at the new Waterfall Lodge Maleny and can’t thank the WR team enough for the recommendation. We stayed with our two sons and our parents. There was enough room for us all to really relax and explore. We walked to the falls directly from the home, and loved being able to explore directly from the lodge. Another incredible getaway - we will be back!"
