Luxury Lodges Of Australia

For anyone who thinks they know Australia, but haven’t visited recently (or at all), take note. The Australian travel landscape has changed dramatically over the past decade. We have seen the creation of a new breed of exceptional lodges and camps in some of its most beautiful and uniquely Australian regions.


In 2010, a number of Australia’s leading independent high-end tourism property owners formed Luxury Lodges of Australia. It is a member-owned, marketing association to promote both domestically and internationally the uniquely Australian breed of luxury experiential lodges. They joined forces to showcase Australia’s unique style of sophisticated, carefree, barefoot, experiential luxury.


These properties represent both long-established and new lodges and camps, with a common theme of offering guests an outstanding experience connected to a clear sense of place – hand in hand with key luxury standards for service, décor, food, wine and ambiance.

The Luxury Lodges of Australia range from wilderness lodges to vineyard retreats and dining destinations; island hideaways to luxe outback camps. All are operated to be the ‘best’ in sharing their unique region in Australia with their guests.
