Design

The island is home to a selection of 16 secluded luxury villas, each carefully positioned to balance maximum privacy with uncompromised views. The tranquil retreats are shrouded in lush greenery and swaying palm fronds; expansive sun decks accommodate comfortable daybeds and private jacuzzis, while dazzling infinity pools blend seamlessly into the azure sea beyond. Banyan Hill Estate is the island’s most remote residence, standing alone on its very own private peninsula. Your personal chef, private beach parties and round the island boat races make this the ultimate venue for entertaining – the ideal group retreat or family getaway. 

Exceptional chefs utilise the island’s bountiful produce, with 80 percent of food being grown just metres from the kitchen. Zesty herbs and rich spices combine with this fertile land’s fresh and nourishing spoils to create culinary delights with explosions of flavour.

With 11 kilometers of meandering trails, there is plenty of opportunity for exploration on land. For a fulfilling experience, assist the conservation team in their admirable work and join them on the hunt for newly laid birds’ eggs or freshly hatched turtles. Catch sight of whales and dolphins peaking above the waves, or dive right into the magical underwater world of thriving coral and opulent marine life.

Sustainability

  • 80% of food comes from the island, with expansive gardens and a hydroponics house growing over 50 types of fruits and vegetables

  • Extensive conservation projects and successes, including saving the native Magpie Robin from extinction

  • Sizeable nursery growing rare and near-extinct species

  • Lotions all made with garden botanicals
