Southern Ocean Lodge

South Australia

Perched on a rugged cliff with views over Hanson Bay and the ocean, the Southern Ocean Lodge is a pioneering eco-lodge. Located in the southwest of Kangaroo Island, this wilderness and wellness retreat is surrounded by wild terrain, dramatic coastline, and unique wildlife leading to the region’s status as the Australian Galapagos.

The 21 luxurious suites stretch along the clifftop, with floor-to-ceiling windows allowing cinematic views of the coast and wilderness. Inside, sustainable materials are complemented by bespoke furniture and local artworks. Outside, each suite has a private deck, while the Osprey Pavilion has its own plunge pool.

The restaurant showcases southern Australian produce, complemented by a range of premium local wines and beers, and sunset drinks are served each evening.

Guests enjoy a range of experiences including guided tours, quad bike safaris, mountain biking, and kayaking. Alternatively, retreat to the Southern Spa for some pampering with a spectacular view.

Why we recommend Southern Ocean Lodge

The architecture of this lodge is out-of-this-world. From the moment the double doors swing open upon arrival you’re transported into a luxurious escape of limestone, warm timbers, and views of the ever-changing sea. The suites, which stretch along the clifftop, also come with floor-to-ceiling windows allowing cinematic views of the coast and wilderness.
