Spicers Tamarind Retreat
Spicers Tamarind Retreat is a place where happiness can be shared in an intimate environment. Set near a waterfall in a stunning rainforest in the Sunshine Coast Hinterland just three kilometres east of Maleny, Spicers Tamarind Retreat is an intimately unique retreat where Thai style meets the tranquility of the Australian bush. Here, you can do as little or as much as you want. Explore the beauty of the Sunshine Coast Hinterland, take a stroll along Obi Obi creek, learn the intricacies of Thai cuisine at the in-house restaurant, or just relax in the outdoor cedar hot tub on your private balcony listening to the sounds of the waterfall and the abundant wildlife.
