A Queensland family has acquired luxury Maleny Lodge in Maleny’s Maple Street as demand for Sunshine Coast accommodation assets continues to increase.

The hotel was sold by owners Pink Developments Pty Ltd only six months after it opened.

The newly opened property is an adults-only retreat which blurs the lines between boutique hotel and holiday home, according to thehotelconversation.com.au.

The hotel opened in June 2022 after a comprehensive restoration which retained its original 1905 heritage charm, while incorporating modern interior designs, full of luxury finishes, modern comforts and a beautifully curated collection of vintage furniture and trinkets.

The heritage-listed building has been restored with high-quality finishes, while maintaining its original heritage charm and features. It offers seven guest rooms in addition to a fire pit and swimming pool, all overlooking the woodland forest below.
