Studios on Tamborine Mountain, set among subtropical gardens with views towards the Gold Coast.
We offer three studios.

“We had the best time it all totally exceeded our expectations!! Homemade breakfast with smoothies made to order were amazing and we ordered the homemade pizza made by Jessica on our first night and it was incredible… The location is location location location, in the rainforest but with sweeping views of the Gold Coast.”
“Jess & Albert are excellent hosts! They are polite and very pleasant to deal with, the daily breakfasts they made were awesome, great start to your morning. Our 2-bdrm unit was perfect, great size for my family and very clean… the view from the main deck is amazing you can see the Gold Coast skyline, beautiful views during the day and night. We will definitely be back again!”
“Incredible stay. Jess and Albert were wonderful hosts, and the breakfast buffet they provided each morning was the perfect start to the day (smoothies are a must try!!). The cabins are large and well equipped, with a view over the Gold Coast, and felt so secluded. Located a short drive from the main area of Mt Tamborine, the location is far enough away to feel like an escape while still so close to all amenities.”
“Can highly recommend Sky Island Studios. Jess was fabulous. Breakfast was lovely and her pizzas were amazing. If you are looking for romantic getaway, getaway with friends or even the kids you won't be dissappointed.”
“The breakfast was beautiful, I looked forward to it each day and there was so much variety to choose from. The rooms were very comfortable, well laid out, spacious and a pleasure to be in. The internet was fabulous, I used it a lot for work with no issues. And the kitchen was well appointed for all my cooking needs… Overlooking the coastline was wonderful, especially at night with the lights in the distance.”
“The hosts were so incredibly lovely and accommodating. They created the most delicious buffet breakfast each morning which had alot of variety… The studio room was very spacious and clean. And beautifully decorated and furnished… This accomodation made the most perfect getaway for my husband and I on our honeymoon.”

“Absolutely beautiful, peaceful, quiet. Perfect getaway! Breakfast was amazing and they cater GF/DF. Jess and her husband go above and beyond. Super clean and comfortable. Loved it!”
