Casa Renoir

Character and identity

Casa Renoir transplants a southern Italian masseria into the green folds of the Noosa hinterland, where old stone walls, graceful arches and antique European finds sit among olive and citrus groves on 40 undulating acres. On completion in November 2026, the estate will hold five one-bedroom pool villas plus a larger family villa, each fitted with full kitchens and private magnesium pools. Days centre on Le Plage, a freshwater pool with waterfall and long communal breakfast table; nights revolve around the wood-fired pizza oven or in-villa chefs. Service is precise but unstuffy, channelled through a personal local guide who functions as a hinterland butler.

Who's it for

Bottom line

The pull here is a genuinely original aesthetic vision, Puglia in the gum trees, paired with villa privacy and a stocked pantry that lets you cook, graze and drift for days. Spend the money if you want seclusion with substance rather than spa-resort polish. La Grange suits groups of four; book early-2027 stays once the full villa roster opens, and budget for a hire car.
