Ideal for nature-lovers looking for a self-sufficient getaway, lodges are fully furnished and self-catered. Usually made of wood and surrounded by forests or mountains, lodges can be part of a group or a single unit. More remote than holiday homes, lodges are popular for safari trips.
The lodge was really well designed, and very comfortable. It was close to everything we needed for a weekend away exploring, and was the perfect retreat to come back to at the end of the day.
Aquila Eco Lodges is such an amazing concept. Perfect place to zone out, distance yourself from the city life, and enjoy the serenity. Immersed into a national park, surrounded by the bush and wildlife, it felt surreal. It’s such a unique experience that we would recommend to everyone.
Quiet forest location. Private and peaceful. Good bush walks. Friendly staff with good local tips. Bakery (the old one) in Dunkeld fantastic. Lodge had good water pressure, good kitchen, fair air conditioning (might struggle when real hot) a warm wood heater.
Our stay at the Aquila Eco Lodge was fantastic. The accommodation, landscape and hospitality were all perfect. Harry introduced us to his family of kangaroos and wallabies on arrival. An amazing experience to be that close to these beautiful animals. The accommodation was cosy, with a canara fireplace to keep you warm on those cold days and nights, with beautiful reclining chairs that were fantastic for reading a book and enjoy a glass of wine.
The lodges are sustainable and off grid. They are beautifully designed to fit with nature. The owners are very hospitable and go to great effort to make sure your stay is excellent.
Beautiful lodge tucked away in bushland in the southern part of Gariwerd (Grampians). Lots of wildlife around the property, and very friendly owners.
