Last time we stayed at Spicers Tamarind back in June 2025, we rated it a 5. However after staying this time we feel like things have changed.
We like to stay here because it has it all, private and peaceful accommodation, great parking plus an onsite restaurant. However general maintenance appears lacking this time with visible cobwebs etc. Our room had 3 spiders inside and a couple of tiles cracked in the bathroom. Whilst the villas are in the bush and it maybe expected, pest control needs to be top of mind.
Breakfast was ok but was missing the little extras. Previously we were served fresh yoghurt and berries with homemade banana bread. This time it was a couple of sad pieces of melon with watermelon juice which was quite a strange taste, presume extra sugar added. The area designated for breakfast used to be the front dining area which has a veranda overlooking the property however it appears this is not an option now.
The food quality in the restaurant for dinner was also not good. If the restaurant is not maintained to a high standard then the overnight experience no longer remains a preferred getaway, especially for the 5 star price charged
We had perfect celebration for my partner’s birthday at Spicers Tamarind Retreat in Maleny. It was absolutely lovely!
Nestled in a gorgeous private, tropical setting. Excellent villa accommodation and an outstanding restaurant. We loved it 🩷
Personally I couldn’t fault it.
Great location very relaxing our own hot tub very clean staff very friendly great mini bar selection

The Tamarind is a beautiful property with lots of trees, birds and other wildlife. There are lovely areas set in the landscape to enjoy the nature.
Absolutely nothing!
The facilities were very clean and tidy and the staff were extremely attentive and friendly.
The breakfast was nice but I think for the price it could have been a little more high end. The cheese board on arrival was also average.
We also arranged for an in room massage and the masseuse was very friendly and sweet but the massage was definitely not worth $260. There was little to no pressure, even when I requested it to be more firm and I found myself unfortunately waiting for it to come to an end. My wife had a similar experience. Which was a real shame.
Location, restaurant, Accomodation
No Flora or Fauna tour available on the Thursday that we stayed although it had been recommended by the staff for us.
Relaxing environment, lovely staff, good breakfast, villas are well screened by the trees and far enough apart to feel very private.
We were a bit dissapointed with the evening meal; however, this was addressed by the lovely staff and we would definately stay again.
Booking was made on Booking.com and no mention of restaurant being closed on Monday and Tuesday

I liked all of it!
