One of the best spots on Sunshine Coast island, quiet, and hidden in nature beauty. Resort is well maintained, boardwalk lighting, outdoor seating, and fire pit area is great options for families. We stayed with two toddlers, it was good fun time for them, and we enjoyed our stay a lot.

Unit concept to try: tent cabins facing the ocean! With a beautiful wooden path to get to your tent cabin deep inside the forest, away from noises and cars. Staff are very nice and super friendly (especially Sager who was a great help).

We celebrated our anniversary here and it was our first time at Rockwater Secret Cove Resort. The ocean view was absolutely breathtaking, with fresh air and a peaceful, relaxing atmosphere. Being in a canvas tent, it does get quite cold at night and you can feel the ocean breeze, even with the fireplace and heaters on. Still, it made for a unique and memorable experience. We truly enjoyed our stay and would love to return again—this time in the summertime.

The boardwalk up to our room was beautiful and the surrounding area is quiet/peaceful alongside the ocean view. We appreciated the complimentary s’mores and kayaking as well!
