Decided against staying
I don't usually leave negative reviews, but I think it's important that future guests have an accurate understanding of what to expect.
We booked this property for a relaxing weekend away but decided not to stay after arriving.
To be transparent, we initially confused this booking with another Tiny Away property on Tamborine Mountain. That was our mistake. However, once we arrived, we realised the bigger issue was that this property itself was not what we expected.
Despite being marketed as Tamborine Mountain, the property is actually at the base of the mountain in Logan, around five minutes from the Bearded Dragon Hotel. It sits approximately 10 metres from a busy main road, with constant cars and heavy trucks passing every few seconds. This was the opposite of the peaceful retreat we had booked.
The outdoor area was also disappointing. The fire pit wasn't set up with wood, the seating area is bare dirt (which would become mud in wet weather), the outdoor cushions were stored on the ground under the tiny house, and there is no covered outdoor area to enjoy the BBQ or sit outside if it rains. Inside, there is virtually no ventilation unless the front door is left open, but there is no flyscreen.
The local host was initially fantastic. They apologised, told us we'd been allocated the wrong tiny house, and offered to organise a refund as well as a complimentary stay in one of their secluded tiny homes. Unfortunately, once Tiny Away became involved, everything changed. Our concerns about the property's location and suitability were largely ignored, with the focus instead being on the fact we'd initially confused the booking. While we've always acknowledged that mistake, it didn't change the issues with this property.
We weren't asking for a full refund. We felt a 50% refund would have been a fair compromise given we didn't stay, but this was also refused, leaving us $450 out of pocket.

I love the whole tiny home experience and would definitely do it again
The set up was lovely and clean
The shower either went really hot or really cold but I don’t know if that was not me but I couldn’t get it right the whole stay, and you couldn’t have leave the front door open to let in the fresh air because the rain kept coming in the door

Had the best stay ever. Meisha and her fur babies (both big and small) were absolutely amazing. Can not fault our stay a
Private location, gave the feeling of camping without actually camping. So welcoming and felt very welcoming at every step of our stay.

A perfect place to get away. My partner wanted to go camping with tents, and I feel comfortable in houses. This was our compromise and it was perfect! Surrounded by bushland and close enough to the road and the host's house. A BBQ and firepit, air conditioning and running water. You can see the stars up through the trees at night. An enchanting place. A double bed, small kitchenette and bathroom, all self-contained in a little gorgeous home. We brought aerogard and camping chairs, which we did use. We took part in touristy things during the day and used the Tiny Away as our base for relaxation. There is a town with takeaway and a supermarket just 20 mins away. Not to mention Mount Tamborine in the next suburb over. We brought our puppy, and he was happy on a chain/long leash. Watch out for ticks though! We had a lovely time. Exactly what we needed. Thank you Van Demears 🥰
While there were lots of great things about the Tiny Away we stayed in, we did notice a few things that could do with improvement. The hot water was a bit temperamental. On the last night, it switched off completely. We had the air-conditioning on all night as there was no option to open a window for fresh air and it can become a little stuffy. I noticed that there was moisture build up on the bed window facing the firepit. We opened the door during day time to create some fresh air flow. Otherwise, very comfortable.
