This is Flat Rock, situated in the Blue Mountains in Wentworth Falls. It's a lesser known spot but absolutely beautiful and exhilarating. I found the best way to find it was to search for Little Switzerland Drive in maps and follow that to the end. The area is not fenced so be careful! Great for sunset.
Noosa National Park hosts a treasure trove of magical spots on the coastline. I hiked almost through to Hell's Gates to find this gem. :)
Flying over the amazing Whitehaven Beach in the Whitsundays! 😀 #NationalPark

Each member of the staff was very friendly and helpful. They took care of everything we needed plus. There was absolutely nothing I could find wrong. I strongly recommend upgrading to an upper floor. It included many extras you don’t get from a regular room. Worth the extra for upgrade.
