On one hand, Maroochy is a modern, sophisticated region with excellent dining, fine boutiques, and stylish shopping, while bikinis, thongs and beer are as acceptable as they have always been, designer dresses, stilettos and cocktails are a welcome addition.

Take a step back in time by visiting the Buderim Pioneer Cottage. Built in 1876 this historic house is a piece of history that has been preserved and protected by the National Trust.

Maroochy - a perfect blend of the hip and the unpretentious.
