Beware, this property has sold and is not currently trading as a B&B, despite last minute indicating the booking was confirmed. We arrived on the booked date for check in only to discover the owner had sold & was packing up the house to relocate. Thankfully the host, who was extremely apologetic, provided us with a recommendation to the ‘Bunyip’ close by, which was an amazing stay & is highly recommended!! The weekend was salvaged & thoroughly enjoyed! 😄

Wiss House Tranquillity
Wiss House has a lovely tranquil feel about it. You feel it the moment you step foot inside the picket fence! It has charm and serenity stamped all over it. It is a beautiful house & B & B. The hostess is gracious, warm & friendly. I loved being there and would stay again in a heartbeat 💗

Misleading photos
In the middle of town. Shared bathrooms for the price is not right.
Needs a heap of maintenance and really should be taken of this site.

Charming B and B in quiet town
Located within walking distance to the shops and the Royal Hotel, Wiss house is a great place to stay. Your hostess Sara is a charming lady who makes you feel welcome from the moment you walk in the front door. Sara is also a great cook who doesn't cut corners on the breakfast. She keeps this big home in spotless condition, and shares her knowledge on the history of the 110 year old Queenslander. My wife and I loved our stay and would recommend it to anyone looking for a romantic weekend away. The town of Kalbar is a little gem, one hour from the Gateway Motorway.

Beautiful old house. Well preserved.
Sara is friendly and easy and the house is very original with period furnishings. Good breakfast too. Only let down by a poor shared bathroom. Expensive compared to other country B&Bs we stayed in but perhaps that's the going rate in that area.

Wiss B&B Kalibar
We only have a very short stay,however Wiss House was wonderful, I loved the Old Queensland charm and history of the house, and the peaceful setting. Our host was amazing and very accommodating to our needs. My only complaint was that our rooms small window above the internal door did not have a blind and we had the light from the hallway near the turn to the bath and Toilet coming into the room. Other wise it is a piece of Queensland history and well worth our stay.

First asthma attack in 20 years...
The house is spectacular, the interior decorating compliments the period of the house and the staff were initially reasonably friendly. Once in the room for several hours I experienced my first respiratory distress in over 20 years (I thought I had left it behind in adolescents), I had to leave the house in a hurry at 2am, once out of the house my symptoms alleviated. Overall my wife and I spent almost $400 to spend 12 hours there and receive one meal. Feigned compassion from the owner met her previous communications on being driven by ensuring everyone paid up!
