We chose Olinda for its timeless beauty, romantic village atmosphere, and stunning natural surroundings. Set in the heart of the Dandenong Ranges, Olinda is known for its towering trees, lush gardens, and peaceful forest setting that feels a world away from everyday life.
What we enjoy most is the unique blend of nature and village charm. You can start the day with a walk through nearby gardens or forest trails, enjoy a long lunch at one of the area’s well-known cafés or restaurants, and end the evening with a quiet stroll beneath the trees. Each season brings its own magic, from misty mornings and cosy winter fires to vibrant autumn colours and fresh spring blooms.
Olinda is perfect for guests looking for a relaxing escape, a romantic getaway, or a base to explore the Dandenong Ranges while still enjoying boutique shopping, dining, and local experiences right on your doorstep.
