Cachette marocaine envoûtante 1001 nuits pour couples

Enter a magical Moroccan hideaway in the lush Dandenong Ranges - a true Ali-Baba cavern just 1h drive from Melbourne. This unique vibrant studio is a feast for the senses: sleep under hand-embroidered Mongolian rugs, sip mint tea from Moroccan glasses, indulge in a sensual massage, or lose yourself in Rûmî after a day of forest adventure. A soulful, one-of-a-kind curated retreat where every detail whispers enchantment.
The studio is completely self-contained and the room above is vacant at night for your privacy.
Whether you are looking for a private unique romantic getaway, wedding night accommodation, a stay close to Puffing Billy, or simply a few days escape from city, 1001 Nights Hideaway offers an immersive experience that will awaken your own inspiration and creativity. Located on the ground floor of a character-filled home, this self-contained studio offers total privacy with its own entrance.

Perfect for couples, the studio features a very comfortable queen bed with a heated blanket under an embroidered Mongolian canopy guests report having the best sleep of their life on.

A foldable bed in the separate sunroom is available for a third guest (adult or child), and a co-sleeper mini cot can be made available on request for infants.

Cockatoo village is at a walking distance (2 km), while popular shops and restaurants in Emerald townships are only 5km away (6 min by car), and a hike in Wright forest with Puffing Billy and to Emerald lakes is a 3 min drive.
