Summary: The epitome of seclusion, Tiny Heidi is hidden in the hinterland of the Sunshine Coast. Here you get the chance to plug into what really matters: try simple living, indulging in deep conversations, and appreciating every sunset.
Located in Mary Valley country behind the Sunshine Coast, Tiny Heidi is just outside the charming town of Imbil. If you’re traveling from Brisbane you’ll reach your destination within two hours if you drive up the M1. To reach the house you’ll travel down a well-worn path and arrive at a ridgeline with impressive views.
This tiny house takes its name from the intrepid character of Heidi from Swiss author Johanna Spyri’s book of the same name.
The Space: Set on a former pineapple plantation, Tiny Heidi is tucked deep in the wild, in the Sunshine Coast Hinterland. Thoughtfully designed so that you can lie in bed with an awe-inspiring view of the verdant Kenilworth Bluff.
Tiny Heidi comfortably accommodates up to four guests, featuring a Queen bed with a window view and a double bed in the loft. Recently upgraded, Tiny Heidi now boasts a brand-new deck and an outdoor bathtub, perfect for soaking in the scenic surroundings. For year-round comfort, it also includes a reverse-cycle air conditioner and heating unit.
We provide bedding, linen, and towels, USB charger, fridge, freshwater for drinking, hot shower, eco-friendly compost toilet, fan, stove, BBQ, fire pit, outdoor stove, cutlery and plates, outdoor seating, books, games, and provisions (soap, shampoo, conditioner, salt, pepper, coffee, sugar, matches, and oil). You only need to bring food and drinks. Our tiny houses are powered by the sun and gas bottles. There are normal 240-volt power points in this house, but please don't try to charge large devices.

Mobile Reception: While there is a good mobile phone signal at this tiny house we encourage you to disconnect and bury your phone in your bag so you can make the most of nature.

Yes — we just wanted to kindly suggest that the kitchenware be checked and cleaned more carefully in the future. When we arrived, there were ants on the pots and in the cupboards, and there was no salt available, so our meals ended up being quite bland. Thank you very much for your understanding.

Thank you for your feedback. We’re very sorry to hear about the ants and the missing salt during your stay, this is certainly not the experience we want for our guests. We appreciate your feedback regarding the pots and pans and appreciate you bringing this to our attention. We hope to welcome you back into the wild again soon.
