A great place to relax, enjoy the amazing views, and spend time with family and friends. The house is spacious with comfortable indoor and outdoor living areas perfect for a group getaway. The Alice in Wonderland themed garden and play space under the house is lovely for kids to explore. The house is well equipped and really feels like a home away from home. The host provided excellent instructions prior to check.

Hidden Gem

This quiet, spacious, comfortable home is located on the edge of the National Park overlooking the valley, with views of the Gold Coast and ocean off in the distance. It's homey atmosphere allows you to relax and enjoy your surrounding, either inside or out. It is well worth a visit.

Execellent facilities provided. The kitchen caters well for meal preparation. Good quality whitegoods. Ample supply of crockery and utensils. Cleaning products supplied for both dishwasher and handwashing. The beds are first class. Although we did not use them the laundry is equipped with washer and dryer. Large screen smart TV in main entertainment area. TV also provided in the lower floor bedroom for those sleeping there. Various genres of CD's provided for musical entertainment if desired. Ample tables and chairs on the outside deck with fantastic view of the northern gold coast. Would certainly rent again. The host was very obliging with any enquiries.

We were on Cloud 9

Cloud 9 was as advertised and more. So clean and thoughtfully planned. Excellent for groups and families. The sound did not travel between the floors. The rooms and facilities were more than expected and made our stay perfect. Room to park out three cars under cover. Great views and garden full of surprises. Highest recommendation.

Christmas in July

Lovely spacious property, very well and thoughtfully equipped (not just 6 but over 20 cups and plates, etc), and champagne and a box of mixed fudge on arrival. Most spectacular views; very quiet; relaxing; warm and cosy mid-winter; comfy beds. Amazingly thoughtful garden attractions for children which was appreciated by we adults. Couldn't fault anything. Host was wonderful and allowed us early arrival and late checkout. Don't miss seeing the Tamborine Botanical Gardens nearby, especially when Camelias in flower.

Sisters Reunion

My four sisters and I are spread across the country and some of us hadn't seen each other for seven years. After careful consideration we chose Cloud 9 to have our reunion and we couldn't have been happier. Even though Tamborine Mountain has a plethora of activities for visitors we opted for spending most of our time at the property. There was plenty to entertain us and it is so well outfitted for whatever kind of break you are looking for. Murray was easy to contact and all correspondence was prompt and informative. Cloud 9 has a warm lovely homely feel yet is large enough for all of us. The views were spectacular. I highly recommend, we will likely choose Cloud 9 for our next Reunion.

Absolute Bliss

We booked Cloud 9 for my 50th Birthday celebrations. From the time we arrived we felt instantly relaxed. A lovely bottle of champers and delicious local fudge awaited our arrival. The house is well layed out with the big verandah a hit to take in the gorgeous scenery. It truly is Cloud 9 as you witness the clouds roll in over the valley. All the little extras were a great hit with washing powder, loo rolls and kitchen supplies available if you forget something. The fireplace was simply beautiful which we used one night. The gardens are a work of love and attract the local birds & butterflies. We simply loved our stay and cannot wait to return. Don't hesitate to stay here if you are looking for some peace away from the hustle and bustle. Plenty of activities to do locally with dining options, sight-seeing and shopping. Thank you so much Murray for your DeVine hospitability. We will be back!
