Poinciana Cottages

Tucked away on Douglas Drive, Norfolk Island, Poinciana Cottages is a boutique retreat that blends comfort with charm. Set among tropical gardens, the property features five self-contained cottages designed for privacy, convenience, and relaxation. Rated 3.5 stars by Star Ratings Australia, each cottage offers modern amenities and a welcoming atmosphere that makes every stay memorable.

With views across the lush valley and just a short stroll from Burnt Pine village, Poinciana Cottages is the perfect base to explore Norfolk’s rich history, stunning landscapes, and vibrant food and wine culture. Each cottage is thoughtfully styled to create a peaceful sanctuary, complete with a private balcony and cosy, fully equipped living spaces.

The land itself carries a fascinating past –once home to one of Norfolk’s first guest houses, later an orchard supporting the Red Cross during WWII, a private school, and even a Qantas crew stopover.

Today, hosts Peter and Jackie Pye continue that legacy with warm hospitality, homely touches (including a pillow menu!) and local knowledge to help guests uncover hidden treasures, from secluded beaches to charming island attractions.

Whether it’s a romantic escape, family holiday or quiet retreat, Poinciana Cottages promises an island experience you’ll never forget.
