Southern Ocean Lodge First stop west is South America, first stop south is Antarctica, this is a seriously wild coastline and Southern Ocean Lodge takes full advantage of its spectacular location hugging the cliff above the bay. Breathtaking scenery, innovative cuisine and a superb cellar augment the experience. Lybus, Australia Southern Ocean Lodge, June 2019
Southern Ocean Lodge It’s not just the luxury tent, or the gourmet food and wine, or the tailored tours and knowledgeable guides - all of which are wonderful. The experience of Longitude 131° is more than that. The more you learn about Uluru and Kata Tjuta, the more spectacular the place becomes. It’s cultural and historical significance is quite overwhelming. To be able to experience it in such a luxurious way is the icing on the cake. Shannon, Australia Longitude 131°, November 2019
Southern Ocean Lodge Capella is like staying in someone’s very large beach house, very laid back but very on-point - particularly the food - it was glorious and fresh. Lord Howe is paradise and Capella Lodge compliments it perfectly. SVRF, Australia Capella Lodge, March 2019
