From desert camps to beach retreats, explore luxury lodges to rest and recharge in the sun-kissed region
Australia has plenty of luxury lodges on its east and south coasts and at its red centre. Wallpaper* readers are regulars at Bedarra and Lizard islands, off the Queensland coast; One&Only Wolgan Valley in the Blue Mountains; El Questro in the Kimberley; Longitude 131 at Uluru; and Southern Ocean Lodge on Kangaroo Island in South Australia. The west coast did not get a look in. Until now.
Best of all is the bush tucker. Dan Fontecilla, a local guide, offers the chance to kayak up Margaret River, stopping on the river bank for a picnic of kangaroo, crocodile, and emu, served with bush tomato and jackfruit chutneys and tart desert limes. For vegetarians, there’s local cheese, tomato and wattle seed bread, basil pesto, tomato and capsicum pesto, sea spinach, and Tasmanian pepper berries.
The hotel offers a Shambhala spa experience. Its restaurants also offer Shambhala cuisine – think chia, almond and coconut pudding with mango, passionfruit sauce for breakfast, and ‘farmer and forager driven’ dishes such as nut, seed, and vegetable toast with crushed avocado, tomato, cucumber, lime with pork and sage sausages.With its rustic wooden furniture, shabby – but not too shabby – chic Samphire Rottnest has become part of the Rottnest Island’s rugged landscape.
