Nala Resort

On Clump Point Road at Mission Beach, between the old rainforest and the reef, this adults-only property gathers stand-alone villas around a pool with beach access. Studios and larger king villas run from forty to forty-five square metres, each finished in a pared-back natural palette for one or two guests. An elevated restaurant and wellness spaces sit within the recently rebuilt grounds, and the eighteen-and-over rule keeps the mood quiet and adult throughout.
