Babinda Quarters

Fabulous art deco accomodation. Lovingly restored and updated. Would recommend the stairs are a workout though. Great location and a great place to breathe out. Interesting art works and decor. Great spots to sit outside and admit the gardens and views

This is a delightful place, the old nurses home, so friendly and informal, ideal for all types of guest. We went as a couple in our 70's, with our daughter and two grandchildren. We upgraded to the Doctors Quarters to enjoy something special on our anniversary. Gary, the manager, Kim the owner, and everyone else had time to talk to us and make the stay more enjoyable. We found it very comfortable, and good value. Babinda is a good place to stay: a great bakery, Italian restaurant, and beautiful swimming pool. Plus The Boulders.

Beautifully restored in art deco style. This amazing gem welcomed us with hues of green, aqua, and teal and emanates a sense of tranquility charm and peace. The main lounge area bespokes a pastel coloured soft comfy U shaped lounge with bright coloured comfy cushions. , Wooden floors, a grand piano and soft lighting via table lamps and overhead complete this picturesque setting . All the walls on all 3 levels are decorated with bright coloured original paintings . Our bed was comfy , our bathroom extremely clean and bright and pastel coloured blockout drapes could be drawn if we wanted to sleep in.! We set the aircon at 22 C as suggested and closed the windows at night - no moisture anywhere despite being the wettest town in QLD. They have an assortment of REAL coffee in the kitchen - plunger or nespresso machine ( aka not instant😝) and coffee bags and an assortment of teas in each room ! Gary the manager/ caretaker was bright happy to lend a hand and very knowledgeable about what to do and see and the history of this amazing place . Yep there is a kitchen and several verandah areas where you can eat or simply relax and read one of the hundreds of books to swap or keep. If the rain is too heavy to venture to nearby Babinda Boulders or Josephine Falls just staying here and relaxing is a holiday in itself We thoroughly loved staying here and will come back again. It is an experience and the perfect end to our mini holiday. A bit of luxury for a very reasonable price .

One of the most beautiful places I ever stayed at. Tastefully restored, there's warmth and beauty on arrival. Every room is a work of art with so much attention to detail. I will return as much as possible, although I'd actually like to move in! Thankyou Kim and staff for a very special stay.

The Quarters is an incredibly beautiful and very tastefully decorated Nurses quarters. The art work everywhere is truly amazing and the Owner and Staff were very accommodating! We had somehow messed up our bookings and arrived a day early and Gary, the host, assisted in finding us another place to stay which we were very grateful for considering it was Easter weekend and most places already booked. We thoroughly enjoyed 2 nights here, we’re able to do our laundry and get some tips on a few local areas to check out. Although there are no elevators up to the rooms, Gary was very helpful with our luggage. If you are planning a trip up this way, make sure you book a couple nights at this remarkable place, you won’t be disappointed!
