We've lived on the Sapphire Coast for almost 25 years and we would have to say that this April and May has been the most stunning weather wise that we can remember! In the first week of May we are still swimming daily, and we can't get enough of the beautiful sunshine.

We saw a few photos from Noosa recently with wall to wall beach cabanas  and no room to move, and took a moment to appreciate how lucky visitors to the Sapphire Coast are in comparison. Even during our busiest times of year, there is always plenty of room on the sand for everyone. We like to call it slow living, Sapphire Coast style.

The inside scoop

We have spent a lot of time outdoors in 2025 and can't get enough of it! We love to share with our guests the joy of an early morning walk or bike ride on one of our many beautiful bike paths and walking tracks, and we know all the best spots for an autumn swim.

Our guest reviews sum up the experience of staying at the Fairway perfectly. It's not just about where you sleep for the night, it's about where you go from here.

From over the road to play golf on one of the best courses in Australia, or into Merimbula for a meal at the RSL Club, or up the road to Longstocking Brewery for wood-fired pizzas. We have a great Uber service as well as courtesy buses from several venues. Having lived here for almost 25 years, just ask when you check in for our recommendations and we will give you the inside scoop on what to see and do when you're on the Sapphire Coast!
