A Christmas feast, an O’Reilly’s family welcome

Celebrate Christmas Day surrounded by the beauty of World Heritage-listed Lamington National Park, with a generous festive buffet and time to enjoy the company of those who matter most.

Your celebrations begin at 11:30am, joining the O’Reilly family for a welcome glass of sparkling in the Discovery Centre before taking your seat for a three-hour Christmas Buffet Lunch with all the traditional trimmings.

Enjoy freshly baked breads, vibrant salads and cold selections, fresh seafood, succulent carvery meats and roasted vegetables. Save a little room for traditional Christmas desserts to finish your feast.

A full drinks selection is included, featuring O’Reilly’s Canungra Valley Vineyards artisan wines, Burleigh Brewing Co. craft beer and non-alcoholic beverages. A special visit from Santa Claus at our historic Guesthouse will bring a little extra Christmas magic.

After Lunch, let the celebrations linger. Wander beneath the cool rainforest canopy, discover spectacular waterfalls and scenic lookouts, or relax by the pool and take in the breathtaking mountain views.

Gather your favourite people and let us take care of Christmas lunch.
