Nestled at the northern end of a lush Far North Queensland tropical valley, Tranquilla is surrounded by world famous botanical gardens. Where you can be at one with nature, this romantic hideaway is ideal for candlelit dinners under the stars and strolls through the garden of eden. Tranquilla is the ultimate destination for relaxation and indulgence. Once you are here...you will want to stay forever.
The Retreat:
Enter through acres of gardens, past a bouldered creek that flows year round, this is an experience for all your senses. In front of the home is a freshwater 25 metre swimming area with your own private beach, complete with sun lounges. It's clean and safe to swim all year round and its source is the spectacular Whyanbeel waterfall.
Large open timber verandahs encompass the home, reminiscent of tropical Bali. Bedrooms open to the verandahs allowing the cool breeze to drift in.
The home comfortably accommodates 8 guests and is ideal for honeymooners, family reunions, private hideaways or simply enjoying friends in an exotic location. The home is designed to co-exist with the energy of the Botanical Gardens. The water gardens not only soothe the soul, they attract astounding bird life. Indulgent and idyllic these gardens have taken over 20 years to establish. Tranquilla has featured on American, Australian, Canadian, Italian and Japanese television food, science & lifestyle programs.
