Capella Lodge | Lord Howe Island

Barefoot luxury, inspired by the carefree spirit of the Australian beach house, Capella Lodge has island-styled suites to lay up with your lover and breathe in the tranquil beauty of Lord Howe’s pristine natural environment. Makambo Loft is a premium suite, ideal for a romantic honeymoon. The fun, mezzanine loft style king bedroom draws mesmerising views of Lord Howe’s postcard twin peaks mountains, with ensuite and balcony on the upper level. You’ll have your own private deck with day bed and plunge pool and EcoSmart fireplace, and main bathroom complete with rain shower on the ground level.

Spread out in the superlative Lidgbird Pavilion, a popular choice for a special occasion, with wrap around verandahs capturing panoramic views of ocean and mountains. There’s a generous bedroom on the upper level, complimentary premium in-suite bar, optional sunset drinks and in-suite dining and a luxurious outdoor Lotus bath beneath the frangipani tree. Swoon…

Should you ever decide to leave, you have your own electric buggy reserved for exclusive use.

When you do eventually peel yourself away from your gorgeous abode, Capella Lodge has a wealth of activities beckoning you to explore, while Capella Spa encourages dreamy surrender to island-inspired treatments.

Lizard Island | Great Barrier Reef

‘Exclusively Yours’ means exactly that; the small luxury lodge is the only accomodation on Lizard Island and a honeymooner’s dream. The quiet, serene and remote island puts on spectacular sunsets to remember and the Beachfront Suites are designed to offer uninterrupted beach access and a picturesque vantage point to capture it all as the sun sets over the Coral Sea while you sip champagne on your private deck. 

The Pavilion gives you everything you could ever ask for. The separate bedroom is spacious and airy with an interior of neutral tones and natural fabrics. The lounge is fully integrated into the outdoor deck through sliding doors, stepping down to a personal pathway, you arrive at the Pavilion’s gazebo and private plunge pool.

To make life a breeze, you’ll have a dedicated Lizard Island specialist who will help create an itinerary as relaxing and as busy as you want it to be. Fill your days enchanted by the underwater world with first-class outer reef diving, explore on clear view sea kayaks, unwind with a picnic hamper on a private beach and snorkel to your heart’s content. When all that is said and done, melt into a 3-hour Essentia Day Spa treatment.

Journey to the Heart is qualia’s iconic Great Barrier Reef adventure where you’re whisked away on a helicopter flight over Whitehaven Beach to the private Heart Island helipad.
