The Best Eco-Friendly Accommodation in Noosa

By far my favourite place in Southern Queensland, Noosa is a little slice of paradise that everyone should experience at least once in their lifetime. From rugged coastline & captivating forests to white sandy beaches & calm dazzling blue bays, you could spend weeks exploring all that the area has to offer. The recent Australian bushfires have opened our eyes to the impact humans are having on our natural environment and I believe if we can all make our holidays a little more sustainable, the impact will be overwhelmingly positive. Check out the Noosa Eco-Friendly Accommodation Guide below!

The accommodation utilizes minimal electricity and focuses on reconnecting with nature without the high-tech gadgets that dominate our everyday lives. Whether you choose to stay in an en-suite Paperbark teepee or a cosy campout-style Wilderness tent, you’re guaranteed to have a blissful night’s sleep under the stars.

Located at Elanda Point, you can spend your day exploring Cooloola National Park or making friends with the large eastern grey kangaroo population that also live in the eco-resort. If you’re feeling adventurous, Habitat Noosa offers eco-tours such as kayaking, paddle boarding & boat trips through the sub-tropical rainforest of the Everglades wetlands.

One of the best things about camping is outdoor BBQs and campfire snacks, but if cooking ain’t your thing you can head to Habitat’s very own Coothara restaurant. Serving up hearty dishes using local produce, a meal here is the perfect way to end a fun-filled day in the great outdoors. They have plenty of vegan-friendly options on the menu and to make things even better, they have their own brewery on-site offering 4 signature beers.

Waking up in a tree top Balinese ensuite room that overlooks lush rainforest sounds pretty out-of-this-world, and you can experience this for a very reasonable price at Noosa Tree Top Eco Retreat.

Sleeping in a tent is about as eco as it gets, and waking up on the shores of the Noosa River takes camping to a whole new level. Noosa River Holiday Park is located at THE most beautiful spot – imagine waking up, unzipping your tent, walking a couple of meters and gliding into the perfect blue waters of Noosa River for a morning swim. The bathroom & kitchen amenities here are spotless, so it’s easy to pitch up your tent on an unpowered site & have a wonderful eco-friendly holiday with minimal effort required.
