Bamurru Plains, Point Stuart

The chef here whips up mouth-watering meals using fresh, local ingredients, and the bar is always open for your favorite drink, be it a chilled white wine, gin and tonic, or refreshing sparkling water.

Each bungalow sits on stilts, offering gorgeous views of the floodplains teeming with birds and other animals. You’ll find a cold water thermos, reading materials about the local flora and fauna, a species checklist, and binoculars at your disposal to soak in the wildlife. Plus, the organic cotton bedding and pillow menu ensure you sleep as well as you feel.

Dining at the lodge is a treat—wholesome meals made from local produce are served in a communal, relaxed atmosphere, where guests, guides, and hosts gather to share stories and good food.
