Set amidst colourful gardens and framed by valley and mountain views, Poinciana Cottages offers peaceful seclusion just minutes from town. With five private cottages – each lovingly named Rose, Azalea, Gardenia, Lavender and Daisy – this family-owned escape invites you to unwind in island comfort.
Originally the site of one of Norfolk’s earliest guest houses, the land holds generations of island history – from an orchard that served the Red Cross in WWII to a private school and even a Qantas crew stopover. Today, hosts Peter and Jackie Pye continue that warm hospitality, welcoming travellers into stylish, self-contained cottages that balance character with modern luxury.
Each cottage features a king bed with sun-dried linen, full kitchen with dishwasher, private balcony, cable TV, and access to fresh rainwater. Guests can enjoy a shared BBQ area or pack a picnic with the basket provided and head out to a clifftop lookout at sunset.
Poinciana’s location makes it easy to explore: stroll through Burnt Pine, take a dip at Emily Bay, or delve into Kingston’s World Heritage-listed history. And when it’s time to truly relax, a nearby day spa awaits.
Your stay here is more than a holiday – it’s part of Norfolk’s story.
