Maroochydore airport is only a 20-minute drive from Villa Ohana Pono and there are many bus companies that pick up from your door, and drop off to Brisbane (1.5 hours away) and Maroochydore airports. We have found Sunshine Coast Private Transfers are an excellent and reliable service for airport transfers.
There are many hire car companies at either Maroochydore of Brisbane Airports and in Noosa itself. Uber is very popular in the area, and there is a local Taxi service that is very reliable.
