Views of the gold Coast, set 175meters above sea level high, perfect for romantic getaways, executive retreats, intimate weddings or small conferences. Adults only (14 yrs or over) Established in 1996. In 1996 John and Jan Nicholls hung up... their "sea legs" and sold their leading charter boat companies in Sydney. But retirement was never to suit the adventurous and gregarious couple and before long they were looking for a new project. John discovered a 60-acre property and was immediately enchanted by its serene beauty. The idea soon began to gel, what a beautiful private place to build a luxury lodge. His restless retirement was about to come to an end and Jan's peaceful life was also about to change. It is hoped that the many friends they made around the world during their years of chartering will one day join them at their new venture. Ruffles Lodge and Spa has become Queensland's leading Gold Coast luxury accommodation, this 5-star retreat lies in the beautiful Hinterland, midway between the mountains and the sea. With our child-free policy plus nature and peaceful surroundings, this tropical retreat has everything you would expect from a deluxe romantic getaway.
