When you think of a holiday to Noosa, images of sun kissed beaches and the trendy shopping and dining precinct of Hastings Street immediately spring to mind and although these are certainly some of the most popular aspects of a visit to Noosa, there are certainly some excellent alternatives. Noosa is home to a wide range of accommodation options including beautiful beachfront properties as well as boutique accommodation options tucked away in the cosy hinterland just minutes from the beach.
What else is there to do?
Particularly popular with couples, Noosa accommodation in the hinterlands leave behind the hub of activity that is Hastings Street and the beachfront, for a more relaxing and intimate holiday experience. The Noosa hinterland stretches from Doonan all the way to Eumundi, Pomona, Cooroy, Kin Kin and Cooran and is just 10 minutes from Noosaville and about 20 minutes from Noosa Heads. The lush rolling hills form a patchwork of sparkling lakes, verdant valleys, tranquil forests, remarkable volcanic formations and friendly country towns.
