What a view to wake up to!

I recently stayed at this apartment in Rainbow Beach, and it exceeded all expectations. The spaciousness was remarkable, providing ample room for relaxation and enjoyment. Situated close to the beach, the views were breathtaking, offering a serene backdrop for the perfect getaway. Without a doubt, one of the best places to stay in Rainbow Beach for an unforgettable experience. Management were so easy to deal with and Gavin the caretaker was outstanding. He went above and beyond to help us with a few jetski issues we encountered. Would definitely stay here again.

Absolutely wonderful holiday unit perfectly equipped for a family vacation!

I can not recommend this property highly enough - the spa with a view(whilst sipping our complimentary champagne) was a highlight for the adults. Our children rated this the best holiday unit ever -heaps of space, board games, a table tennis table, PlayStation and an amazing arcade game machine with thousands of games. My husband and I relived our teens with games of Galaga and Pac-Man.. There was a television in every bedroom which the children thought was amazing, and my daughter loved the sparkly pillowcases on her bed. The unit was huge with two massive balconies, and amazing views. It was an easy walk down to the beach and all the wonderful restaurants. We will definitely be going back!!

Outstanding place to stay!

I've traveled all over the world with my family and this is our new favourite place. You can choose to just lay around, relax and take in the amazing view all day or take off down the beach for the day to one of the most beautiful beaches I've ever seen at Double Island Point. The kids loved driving on the beach, it was their highlight and you can just stop wherever you want and set up for a day of relaxing, fishing, surfing and boogie boarding. We saw dolphins, whales and turtles all in one day. The apartment itself was the best choice we made, everything we could have ever asked for, they've thought of every little detail. My kids loved the arcade machine and table tennis table which was perfect cause it gave us time to relax. You can walk to all the restaurants, the Italian being my favourite. Cooking facilities are top notch as well as all the electrical equipment. Absolutely loved this place and would recommend to anybody, travel to Qld not overseas you don't need to - this has it all. Thank you Dee for sharing you beautiful home with our family

Totally amazing!!!!

Dee’s Retreat is the most amazing place I have ever stayed, hence have booked it for the last 6 years for my family. The views are beautiful, we couldn’t get enough of the gorgeous sunsets. The only thing to criticise is the amount of cocktail’s and champagne we drank, whilst relaxing on the balcony admiring the amazing views. Dee’s Retreat has everything you need, comfortable bedding, plenty of room. The kids love having there own Tv in there room, and enjoyed playing table tennis together. We love everything about Rainbow beach, only a short stroll into town from Dee’s Retreat. We have enjoyed many meals at a few of the coffee shops, and bars. The beach is absolutely amazing as well. We have so many beautiful holiday memories at Dee’s retreat, with many more to come in future years!!

What an Incredible Place, we loved it.

From the minute you walk in the views take your breath away then you take a moment to take in your surroundings & this apartment is gorgeous too with everything you could ever wish for at your fingertips. My family loved it so much it’s our new favourite destination. We surfed at Double Island Point & saw turtles & dolphins. We loved setting up for the day on the beach & disconnecting from reality & appreciating paradise. The kids loved boogie boarding down the sand dunes right next to the apartment. We love this quaint little town, great food especially the Italian. The butcher had so much to offer & we cooked a steak on the BBQ one night & it was magnificent quality. It was very relaxing to walk down the street bare feet, we loved being within walking distance to everything, we only used the car to 4WD up the beach which is also such a cool experience. The beds are so comfortable, we loved just sitting on the balcony & taking in the view with a drink in hand. We will definitely be back & highly recommend.

Great place, great location

We were a family of seven, aging from 10 to 80. The apartment catered for everyone - lots for the kids to do whilst the adults enjoyed the sweeping views of the ocean from the balcony, or relaxed in the spa. Everything was within easy walking distance. A fabulous few days and I would highly recommend staying here.
