A secluded ten-suite oasis set against the rugged and ancient landscapes of Western Australia’s Kimberley region, El Questro Homestead is one of Australia’s most exclusive and revered wilderness lodges.
This luxurious retreat melds seamlessly into burnt orange cliffs overlooking Chamberlain River and offers one of Australia’s most unique and spectacular accommodation and dining experiences. As part of an all-inclusive stay, guests begin their day with breakfast on the wide, sweeping veranda with uninterrupted views of the Chamberlain Gorge as they watch the morning sun warm the surrounding ranges with a soft pink glow.
Lunch and dinner are served at the long table on the veranda, offering a unique communal dining experience where everyone can swap tales of their day’s adventures. For a more intimate experience, guests can also opt for a private cliffside table, which offers one of the most spectacular dinner views anywhere in the world.
The Homestead menu is a daily changing exploration of modern Australian cuisine, fused with locally sourced Indigenous ingredients, which are brought to life in a culinary experience that captures the true essence of the Kimberley.
This ‘of-place’ philosophy is enriched through guest experiences such as the Bush Culture and History tour, which dives into the Indigenous history of El Questro and allows guests to learn from Traditional Owners about the native ingredients that they enjoy as part of their Homestead dining experience.
Wild-caught Wyndham Barramundi, West Australian pearl meat and wagyu fuse seamlessly with native botanicals for inspired and unique menu creations that leave a lasting impression befitting of the Homestead’s reputation as a destination that everyone should experience at least once in their lifetime.
