Weekend Trip to The Jewel of Caniaba

We spent the whole weekend at Aliki’s place. It was awesome. Quiet all the time. Sorrounded by native birds. The hot tub was pleasant. Aliki left coffee capsules for us. We took the hike down to the creek and was so nice. At night we light up the fire pit which was really comfy. We definitely recommend the place if you want to have a quiet weekend as a couple.

1 night at Ballina Beach Nature Resort

We really enjoyed our stay in the Luxury Glamping tent at Ballina Beach Nature Resort. 🤎⛺️🐾 The tent was spacious, comfortable and such a nice change from our usual camping setup. We loved the four-poster bed, having our own bathroom and kitchen facilities, and being able to relax with the dogs nearby. It was peaceful, dog-friendly and a lovely spot to slow down. We especially enjoyed sitting outside, having a campfire and being close to the beach. Everything was easy from check-in through to our stay, and we’d happily stay again. A beautiful little glamping option if you still want that outdoor feel with a few extra comforts. 🐾🤎

The host Megan is lovely! When I arrived in the rain it was fantastic that I was able to park the car right outside of the cabin. The shower and toilet facilities are absolutely gorgeous and very much up-to-date. The cleanliness level was something I have never experienced at a hip camp before I highly recommend this spot as a layover or even a weekend stay. I will definitely be coming back.

We loved our stay! We went on the trail walk down to the creek/waterfall and it was beautiful, they had arrows along the way you could follow. Even saw some cows come up to the property and sat with them to watch the incredible view! The fire was also all set up to go. Would definitely recommend leaving the spa until nighttime and turning off all of the lights so you can see the amazing stars in full glory. 10/10!
