Beautifully considered rooms and six self contained bungalows skirt a lush poolside dreamscape.

Design Team: Leo, Michael

Sustainability:

  • Cabin walls insulated with a loose Hempcrete mix.

  • Recycled and sustainably sourced timbers were used throughout the project for furniture, shelves, beds, joinery and much more

  • 2420kg of concrete was diverted from landfill by Five Mile Radius, who made the custom terrazzo bench tops fitted in every apartment

  • 27kwh solar system, powering the operation by the sun

  • 3x 15,000l water tanks service the pool and garden. Each Bungalow has a 3,000l stainless steel water tank.

  • 80’s slate tile that was salvaged from the rooms and recommissioned to become the eccentric crazy paving in the hotel reception

  • The lobby fireplace was built from bricks salvaged from demolished walls in the main building

  • Four large garden beds are fitted with Subpod compost systems to process green waste into garden fertiliser

  • Solar connected electric vehicle charging points are available to guests.
