Wrapped in a plush robe, with the soft glow of the fire nearby, you’ll feel completely at ease.

Pro tip: Book a villa with a private bathhouse for an extra indulgent experience.

Evening Fireside Dining at Azure

As night falls, make your way to Azure Bar and Grill Restaurant, where the flickering firelight sets the mood for an unforgettable dining experience. The seasonal menu highlights native Australian ingredients, featuring exquisite dishes like slow-cooked lamb backstrap with smoked eggplant puree or a delicate seafood pasta infused with native herbs. Paired with a fine Australian wine, it’s the perfect way to toast to your romantic getaway.

Tip: Request a table near the fireplace for the ultimate cosy dining experience.
