The Tranquil Summary
A nine-suite lodge on Lord Howe Island, a World Heritage island in the Tasman Sea that caps visitor numbers at 400 at a time. It sits at the southern end of the island beneath Mounts Gower and Lidgbird, with breakfast, sunset drinks and dinner included.
Best for
Travellers who want a genuinely uncrowded island: a short flight from Sydney, but with strict limits on how many people can be there at once.
Consider if
Booked directly with the lodge rather than an online travel agent. Access is by a roughly two-hour flight from Sydney or Brisbane on a small aircraft with tight luggage limits.
Why it's Tranquil
Nine suites only, on an island that never holds more than 400 visitors at a time. Set beneath the twin peaks of Mounts Gower and Lidgbird, looking over the lagoon and reef. Rates include breakfast, sunset drinks and canapes, and a three-course dinner with wines. A small spa, and an island where most of the land is permanent reserve.
