Luxury Lodges of Australia Executive Chair, Penny Rafferty is quoted in the latest Weekend Australian Travel + Luxury in the article, ‘Six accommodation trends sweeping the world’, as sole-use villas are being named the new must-have for upscale retreats, providing a second layer of luxury for discerning clients. Lizard Island, Southern Ocean Lodge and Bamurru Plains all mentioned as retreats that offer complete privacy with the full services of a five-star hotel.
“Lizard Island offers The House set on a secluded peninsula with a separate cottage for the nanny or grandparents. When Southern Ocean Lodge reopens on Kangaroo Island in November it will feature a new four-bedroom, stand-alone “ultrapremium” suite with a private terrace and pool. Luxury Lodges of Australia chairperson Penny Rafferty says “sole-use villas within lodges is the most significant trend” for the group. Kakadu’s Bamurru Plains will open the Jabiru Retreat in April.” – Christine McCabe, The Weekend Australian.
