Reviews
Rainforest Retreat
Andreas S - 3rd June 2025House was in great location, well-appointed with BBQ and chest freezer. Sleeping and bathroom arrangements suited 5 males on a fishing trip. Only hassle was our 2 boat trailers were too wide to put into the double garage which meant one parked in driveway and one on front grass section, this got a bit tight when a 3rd boat arrived and had to be parked also. The street is very quiet so no real hassle with backing trailers etc. Would recommend this property for a quiet holiday and fishing trips.
Rainforest Retreat
Carol S - 21st May 2025We love Staying at Rainforest Retreat, we are returning customers Love that we are in walking distance to everything. Only thing that could be improved is I understand that it is a pet Friendly accommodation but out the it had a very strong odour of dog wee. And unable to sit on the outdoor lounges because of the smell. Maybe the cleaner could do more in this area 🤔
Very comfortable
Jeffrey B - 13th May 2025The premise was very clean, well equipped, great location, walking distance to pub and club, shops.
A Great Place for a Holiday
Barry S - 15th April 2025The Rainforest Retreat is ideal for a nice quiet holiday. It has a all the facilities you would ever need for a stay away from home.

Patricia A - 24th February 2025Wonderful place to stay. House very clean. Well appointed kitchen. Would have liked aircon in lounge, dinning & kitchen, but you can't have everything. Very grateful for fans.
Terrific holiday accommodation
Suzanne F - 4th February 2025This home ticked all our boxes. Good fences to keep the toddlers in. Air conditioning in the bedrooms. Spacious lounge. Double garage that could act as extra drying / play space in wet weather. Big dining table in doors as well as outdoor. Good supply of basic kitchen and bathroom needs.
Very good
Terry H - 27th November 2024Once again we have enjoyed our stay. The house is a credit to the owners, very clean and well looked after. Love the new windows in dinning room. One suggestion, can you supply a mop , not one on premises. Thank you again.
Nice location
Kellie W - 23rd October 2024Was a great location we stay there many years ago since then the place has changed a lot. Big improvements very comfortable felt like home
Nice and relaxed
Glennis - 19th August 2024Had a nice and relaxed stay. The house was clean and tidy.
Good
Andrew C - 27th May 2024It would be great if WIFi was provided as part of the rental .
Great Location
Roslyn H - 19th May 2024Great holiday house with plenty of room for 6 of us. A few things needing a bit of attention - the vertical blinds in the kitchen need to be thrown in the bin, they are mouldy and this was in comments from over 12 months ago, and the curtains in the dining area are also mouldy. The bottom shelf in the fridge door is just sitting there, the plastic clips are broken. Also a bit disappointed that it took almost 3 weeks for the $300 bond to be refunded.
Excellent property
Deborah D - 26th April 2024Plenty of space and lovely fenced yard. Well equipped and a short walk to everything. We will be back!

GREAT
Terry H - 2nd March 2024We had a lovely time at Rainforest Retreat, my family and I have stayed there many times in the past and we have seen a great improvement in the home. Very clean and plenty of things in the kitchen for cooking, if you wish too. Also dish liquid, soap, toilet paper and shampoo, something many places do not supply. Thank you to the owners, the house is a credit to you.
'Pure Magic'
Gephart B - 5th October 2023What a place to unwind. The house is set up perfectly for the fishing/beach/boating family holiday. Close to everything, main street, boat ramps, pub and 'bowlo'. Heaps of room for all to relax. Right on the forest, making for awesome walks and lots of wildlife. Everything you'll need has been considered by the owners. Best of all, we could enjoy it with our little furry friend! Safe and secure for the dog! Friendly and helpful neighbours and locals. We cannot recommend this oasis enough.
Every thing you want
Barry S - 6th June 2023A great stay. Peaceful, quiet and comfortable. We really enjoyed it and will be back.
Great place
Mare F - 22nd April 2023Great place to stay with my family.

A Great Experience
Barry S - 7th March 2023This was a great experience for us. The house was clean and roomy. We had all the facilities we needed and everything worked well. Thanks to the owners for sharing their delightful home.
House
Lynette - 13th February 2023Had a great time house very clean would stop there again.husband in wheelchair managed great. love the work owners have done we stop there at least once a year.
Rainforest retreat
Janet R - 4th February 2023The vertical blinds in the kitchen have mold on them as does the curtains leading outside. Both need replacing. Perhaps something in the garage as entertainment eg a dart board or table tennis table. Air con in the lounge room would be a great addition. Everything else was lovely It was clean and quiet and we enjoyed our stay
great fun
Carol S - 11th May 2022The house was fantastic, the position was in walking distance to everything. Also being pet friendly allowed our fur babys to come with us an there love the water an ⛱️ beach. a couple of minor details is the light in the fridge doesn't work an the bulb in the bedside table has blown. But a great holiday 🏡
Quiet and Comfortable
Deborah T - 31st March 2022This house has everything, 2 queen sized bedrooms and 2 bathrooms (1 is an ensuite) 3rd bedroom for kids. The kitchen has all appliances that you will need. God sized kitchen and dining room. Comfortable couches in the living room. A great outside BBQ are that is fully screened.

Lynette - 11th March 2022A wonderful house to stay had everything we need my husband is in a wheelchair it was great for him .Definitely be staying there again.And thanks to the owners letting us stay a bit longer because of the floood we really appreciate it 😊
Happy clients
Simone a - 1st January 2022Just a few improvements 1. Large boiler for pasta when catering for 7 2. Second bedroom bed badly needs fixing or replacing 3. A large umbrella for shade over the outddoor table would be a huge addition. It is just too hot to sit out there for midday meals 4. There was a lot of dead cockroaches so maybe there had been baits recently Hats off to the cleaners though as the place was spotless when we arrived Many thanks Dale (not Dianne)
Enjoyable stay !
Bruce - 17th February 2021This was our first time at this house and were very happy. Suited all the family, room for boat and vehicles..pet friendly and owner takes pride in this house with lovely lawns. If I could add one thing, it would be air conditioning in the dining and lounge areas, as it does get hot and stuffy...
Fantastic spot
Marea - 25th October 2020We loved our stay at Rainforest Retreat Iluka..there are not too many nice places we can holiday at with our 2 very clean Maltese x Shitzu little girls..We loved everything about the home it contained all essentials for a relaxed holiday...walking distance to eating places etc.Hopefully we can come back again one day.
Great family holiday home
Shannon - 6th October 2020This property is excellent for families or adult groups looking for a relaxing getaway. Our group of 4 adults had plenty of room, and the ensuite was an added bonus. We loved the outdoor area and spent lots of time out there. The kitchen was well equipped and the dishwasher was much needed. Others have mentioned the tree at the end of the driveway, definitely keep an eye on it as it would be very easy to reverse into. The yard was a good size and very well fenced, and our dogs were very happy and secure. The lawn is amazing but it's worth noting that the sprinklers came on every night at 7. 30 for an hour. This wasn't mentioned on any of the information I recieved and was a rude shock to the dogs. The home was a little further away from the beach and shops than I expected, but walking distance to the river, pub and bowling club. We would definitely stay at this property again, it was great value.
Good location
Nick - 28th October 2019Place was overall not very clean. Unsure why as their was a big emphasis on booking that we would be charged cleaning fees if the place was left untidy, was untidy when we arrived... Please refer to reveiw left on sheet with keys.
RELAX IN COMFORT
GLENDA - 28th June 20195* property allround except for aircon in dining room.
Great place to relax
Lisa - 5th April 2019We loved this retreat, and will definitely be back. The house is spacious, with a lovely breeze and air-con which we really didnt need to use. Good kitchen conveniences. Great quiet location and sizeable garage for tinnie and car. Within walking distance of everything, including the lovely boardwalk. Well worth a stay..but be warned it is very relaxing.
Just Right
DM787 - 8th March 2019Everything we needed for our stay and more! The little extras, like the DVD's and book library when raining, Just right!
Great Location
Shazz - 21st December 2018Great place nice and clean very close to everything you can park up and then walk every where. Close to the Bay to swim, close to the shops. Thanks LJH we had a fantastic stay.
Great Location! Second stay here.
StuartP - 26th October 2018Thanks LJH for your courtesy and efficiency. Loved the stay. Lovely and quiet. Wacth the tree at the bottom of the drive. Last night there 25/10/18 going to cost $500 + to repair the lhs of my SUV.

Lovely holiday home
Heather - 5th October 2017We had a great week in this lovely property. It has everything you need and is pet friendly to boot! One of the nicest places we have stayed in at Iluka!
Great for kids
Laelia - 30th April 2016We staid at this house in Iluka for a week and was such a nice and comfy place to come back to. Safe for the kids as it is fenced from outside bbq area and bedding was a great arrangement. In a quiet street 5 minute walk to shops, bowls club and water. Great that it had a dryer as it did rain for the first few days. Will definately be staying there again on our yearly holidays to Iluka.
Great holiday house for a family
Alice - 31st March 2016Great spot - clean, good location, plenty of parking for boat and nice quiet street. Best equipped kitchen that I've seen in a holiday house!
awesome value!
Tezza - 17th March 2016Great place for the family. Lovely holiday home. Beautiful location. Friendly neighbour's and community. A huge bonus is that it is close to the shops and eating places. Will definitely be coming back again next year!!
