Something for a Fine Food & Wine Connoisseur…
Qii house is quirky, upbeat and fabulous; the perfect spot to host an organic wine tasting event and to promote local artisan produce.
If you were given the task of describing the taste of the Great Ocean Road and Otway region, you’d be best to start your research at one of the state’s many and varied food and wine events.
Toast the vintages at parties in Victoria’s distinct wine regions and get tips on matching wines to the state’s fresh produce from superstar chefs cooking at award-winning regional restaurants. Victoria’s fresh produce arguably tastes better when eaten outside and accompanied by live music and good friends – picking your own food or learning how to cook it are definitely bonuses.
Qii house is where the best in all worlds meet. In this world if you can dream it you can create it.
Enjoy your stay!

Wellness Experience of the Year – Qii House
Built as a private property in 1977, Qii House has since been transformed into an eco-meditation and relaxation retreat by current owner Heather Kolb. Featuring a unique and somewhat quirky design, the property seamlessly blends in with its natural surroundings deep within the lush rainforests of the Great Otway National Park.
Reinvention in the Rainforest: Building Qii House
She didn’t plan to buy a rainforest. It started with a detour—one of many spontaneous drives along the Great Ocean Road that followed the quiet chaos of widowhood. But this time, something tugged at her more than usual. A hillside retreat, wild and worn, hidden beneath the lush Otway canopy, whispered, “This is it.”
Feel the Vibe and Come Alive!
Qii house is an out of box experience. Savor the moment in fresh mountain air, in the ancient otways eco-system, where focus is shifted to the art of living in harmony with nature’s rhythm.
