The best surf hotels · Noosa
Netanya Noosa
Don Farrow was a successful advertising executive before he founded Netanya Management in 1994. He had the eye for it — the original 1984 building on Noosa Main Beach was extended in 1989, renovated repeatedly since, and the detail has been right each time. The physical fact of Netanya is the thing: open the gate and you are on Noosa Main Beach. Not across the road from it, not with a view of it, on it. The pool is heated to 28°C and faces the bay. The apartments are large enough for a week. The rooftop terraces were redesigned recently and the views of Laguna Bay at sunrise are why guests book the same week every year. Hastings Street is immediately behind the building. The National Park is immediately in front.

The hotel
The design
Open the gate and you are on Noosa Main Beach. The design steps back and lets that fact speak.
Clean lines and a restrained palette that has looked right for thirty years without revision. Each apartment is spacious enough for a week — full kitchen, separate living areas, private balcony above the beach.

The surf
The sand begins where the hotel ends. First Point is a short walk north.
Direct beach access — no road, no path, just the gate. The Noosa WSR point break system starts a short walk north. Netanya is one of the few properties in Noosa where you can see the ocean from the bed and reach the surf in under two minutes.
