About this property

Ananda Eco House - Rainforest Retreat

Enjoy your stay at this unique rainforest retreat in the hinterlands of the Sunshine Coast. 🏔🌴
Anandā Eco House is a 3 bedroom open plan living house tucked away in its own secluded rainforest, whilst being conveniently situated only 1km from Montville town. Not only are the surroundings lush, you’ll be sleeping in organic cotton sheets with Belgian flax linen bedding on a comfy king size bed! 😍

Treat yourself to this unique getaway and spend some quality time in nature. 🌱

Anandā Eco House is joined by a huge deck that is surrounded by the 3 seperate bedrooms, the kitchen, living room, bathroom and toilet/laundry. A truely unique design that immerses you in the natural beauty of the hinterlands.

Each room is surrounded by the green rainforest outside, but when you need the privacy of your own space your room is fitted with blinds and curtains. For hotter months a ceiling fan is fitted and extra blankets and a heater are in each room when it gets chilly.

The deck has a large gazebo with 14 chairs and two big tables underneath. The rest of the deck has built in bench seats, a corner day bed, a pair of occasional chairs and a beautiful hanging rattan egg chair for more laid back seating to relax. The property also has a large patio that is downstairs from the house, that has an outdoor lounge area, an infrared sauna and a cold plunge/ice bath. One pathway behind the patio leads to the outdoor fire pit to spend those colder nights together. The other pathway behind the patio leads to two hammocks, to relax with a book or cup of tea.

The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need, including pans, plates, glasses, mugs, tea, coffee, oven, microwave, blender and a full size fridge. Next to the kitchen is a living area with big comfy couches, reverse cycle A/C, board games, books and a fire place.

The house is eco friendly and as off grid as possible, hosting solar power, rain water and a composting toilet. The jungle setting attracts birds, wildlife and other bugs which all add to the experience. Not only does the property have an abundance of palm trees and bamboo, it also hosts a variety of macadamia trees, coffee plants, ginger plants, olive trees, banana trees, peach trees and a lemon myrtle tree.

We give our guests the option to customise their stay with additional add ons & purchases. These range from 3 course dinners and breakfast hampers from our resident caterer (subject to availability), through to the convenience of having wine and firewood etc. on site for sale. The option is there for you to build your custom getaway in nature!

The property has a car park at the front that fits 3 cars for your guests. You can always leave your car at the retreat and walk into town being less than 1km from the centre of Montville.

Self check in is available otherwise we may be available to check you in on arrival as we stay nearby on the other side of the property, so we are available for any questions, tips or help throughout your stay.

Montville has glorious views of the Sunshine Coast and has plenty of local attractions such as shops, restaurants, cafes, national parks and waterfalls.

All bedrooms are set up with king beds as standard. If you require additional bedding or beds, we can change the configuration and split any king bed to be two singles for a small fee. If you’re booking for more than 6, we will add sofa beds in each room to comfortably sleep up to 10 or add the fold out couch in the living room to accommodate up to 12. If travelling with infants, we have a portacot we can provide for your family. Please discuss any bedding requests with us at the time of booking.

Pets may be allowed, but please note the property isn’t fully fenced (3/4 is fenced) and a small fee applies for pets staying. Please let us know if you plan to bring a pet for your stay.

An Amazing Property

As part of our end of year festivities for our social sports team we stayed here for dinner and a small shindig. It’s an amazing self contained property with everything you need. You feel like you’re out in the rainforest. The hosts Britney and Michael were excellent and courteous. I 100% recommend this property.

About the host

Hosted by Britney and Michael

Host profile image
We are a young eco conscious, plant-based family that strive to be active, healthy and always exploring and growing. In August 2021 we purchased our first home that we knew had a lot of 'potential' but wasn't sure if our vision would come to life, because it needed a lot of work!

Our dream vision was to run a small eco friendly accommodation surrounded by nature, that our guests would feel both relaxed and welcomed at. We knew to make our guests feel this way, the house needed a lot of love and a big renovation was the first thing on the list.

We were successful in opening up for the first time in December, with Christmas day 2021 having our very first guests! Since our first opening we have continued to add, change and do what we can to make the space more comfortable for our guests.

We are closeby during your stay so if you need anything at all we aren't far away :)

Why they chose this property

Our property gives you the opportunity to reconnect with nature and travel in an eco conscious sustainable manner, reducing your footprint on our beautiful world.
