About this property

Lillypads Red Cottage

  • Lillypads makes the very best of the tropical rainforest setting, featuring two rainforest Cottages that are set harmoniously within the vivid green rainforest. Couched between the Rainforest and the Great Barrier Reef and only minutes to the quaint village of Mission Beach situated on the beach overlooking Dunk and Bederra Islands.

    The Cottage's overlook the lily lagoon and gardens with views to the mountain range. The lagoon and gardens are designed to attract the splendid rainforest creatures.

    These 2 bedroom - 2 bathroom luxury rainforest Cottages offer open plan living - kitchen area opening onto screened indoor - outdoor verandas. You can sit and gaze over the lily lagoon from the front verandah or you can relax in your spa tub on the back verandah and gaze in to the rainforest. Bliss.

    The kitchen has it all for the Home Chef - cooking will be a pleasure not a chore.

    For the occasional days or nights when the cool breezes from the rainforest are not gently wafting through the cottage there is the option of air-conditioning.

    For those who like to lay beside the pool Lillypad's pool area is ideal. There are semi-shaded decks for each cottage adjoining a cool deep 11 meter saltwater pool set into the lagoon.

    Lillypads is pure indulgence for couples, families or the perfect tropical honeymoon.

    Sunshine or rain Lillypads will release your stress.

    Wish to book an extra cottage for family or friends - Lillypads Yellow Cottage is next door.

Beautiful cottage and location

We felt at home in this comfortable and beautiful cottage, it felt like we had descended into a little piece of paradise! Lace Monitors visited and lots of other wildlife which we really enjoyed watching. Not too far from Mission Beach restaurants and the beach, we did not want to leave!
