Subtropical masseria hideaway
Sunlight filters through olive and gum trees across the forty-acre estate, creating an unhurried, quiet rhythm secluded in the Noosa hinterland.
“Like it has been lifted from a sun-bleached Sicilian masseria and set gently down in the hills of Noosa, Casa Renoir is a study in slow beauty.”
What it’s good at
Remarkable
Handcrafted stone arches, vintage European antiques, terrazzo bathrooms, and lime-washed walls evoke a sun-bleached Puglian masseria.
Notable
Dedicated local guides coordinate bespoke itineraries, in-villa dining, and generously stocked pantries with regional farm produce.
Notable
Private magnesium pools and a chemical-free freshwater lagoon complement on-demand buccal massage, acupuncture, and poolside sound healing.

A chemical-free freshwater lagoon sits among native gum trees, edged by a timber jetty and terraced sun decks.
The spa
Therapists provide bespoke organic facials, buccal massage, and crystal bowl sound healing across the estate.
Yoga on the deck
Private yoga, Pilates, and breathwork sessions are held outdoors on the timber deck overlooking the grounds.
At the table
Mornings start with fresh pastries and moka pot coffee. Evenings bring wood-fired pizzas and natural wines at La Plage.
How it began
Founders Rory Elsom and Hayley Bonham conceived the estate after their 2019 Puglia elopement, bringing Italian craft traditions to coastal Queensland.
