A magical place with breathtaking scenery.
When the SS Makambo ran aground on Lord Howe Island in 1918, passengers were marooned for nine days. An unfortunate accident or a well-plotted holiday? After stranding yourself at the Capella Lodge and enjoying isolated beaches, remote trails, and untouched reefs, you'll probably know the answer.
Lying in the azure waters of the South Pacific, Lord Howe Island is a UNESCO accredited World Heritage Site. Find knotted subtropical forest playing host to rare birds and reptiles as well as the lesser-spotted hiker. Look closely across protected coral reefs and you might see the splash of a snorkeler's flipper.
Set in the middle of the chorus, Capella Lodge is an airy, open hotel that makes every visitor feel like a lucky stowaway. With a maximum of 20 guests, the beach hut style lodge includes a spa, restaurant, and outdoor pool to relax in after a day of discoveries.
