Capella Lodge – Lord Howe Island

Great for Couples, Honeymooners & Families

Capella Lodge is Lord Howe Island’s premium boutique accommodation, commanding spectacular ocean and mountain views from its secluded southern end above Lovers Bay. With sweeping vistas across the Pacific Ocean and the world’s southern-most coral reef, the lodge sits at the foot of the island’s dramatic twin peaks, Mounts Gower and Lidgbird.

A contemporary architectural design featuring skillion roofs, floor-to-ceiling windows and open-plan living spaces invites the outdoors in, creating a relaxed beach house atmosphere with a refined sense of luxury. The lodge’s open-plan bar, restaurant and lounge provide a seamless indoor-outdoor flow, complemented by warm, personalised service and contemporary Pacific-inspired cuisine.

Capella Lodge offers an exclusive and sophisticated island escape, blending understated luxury with the natural beauty of one of Australia’s most extraordinary World Heritage destinations.
