Four members of the Luxury Lodges of Australia collection have been recognised in Luxury Travel Magazine Australia’s roundup of Australia’s best all-inclusive luxury resorts, reinforcing the country’s reputation for extraordinary, experience-led escapes.
The feature spotlights Saffire Freycinet, Southern Ocean Lodge, Pretty Beach House and Orpheus Island Lodge as standout destinations where luxury accommodation, exceptional dining and immersive experiences are seamlessly included, allowing guests to connect more deeply with some of Australia’s most spectacular landscapes.
Describing these exceptional stays as “worth every penny”, Luxury Travel Magazine Australia celebrates a style of luxury travel where personalised service, regional cuisine and exclusive experiences are all part of the journey.
From the dramatic granite peaks of Tasmania’s Freycinet Peninsula, Saffire Freycinet continues to set the benchmark for luxury wilderness experiences, combining world-class hospitality with unforgettable encounters including oyster farm tours, Tasmanian devil experiences and award-winning dining.
On Kangaroo Island, Southern Ocean Lodge is recognised for its breathtaking clifftop setting overlooking the Southern Ocean. Rebuilt following the 2020 bushfires, the iconic lodge offers guests an immersive connection to one of Australia’s richest wildlife destinations through guided experiences, locally inspired cuisine and remarkable coastal scenery.
On the New South Wales Central Coast, Pretty Beach House offers an intimate luxury retreat within Bouddi National Park. With just a handful of private pavilions, personalised service, exceptional dining and bespoke experiences, the lodge delivers a boutique all-inclusive escape surrounded by native bushland.
Also recognised is Orpheus Island Lodge, the exclusive private island retreat on the Great Barrier Reef. Celebrated by the publication as “barefoot luxury at its finest”, the lodge invites guests to explore vibrant coral reefs, secluded beaches and the pristine waters of the Coral Sea while enjoying refined Australian hospitality.
The recognition highlights the diversity of experiences available across the Luxury Lodges of Australia collection, with each destination offering its own distinctive sense of place while delivering the exceptional service, dining and immersive experiences that define Australia’s leading luxury lodges.
