The Bond Store, Stanley, Tasmania
A visit to Stanley on the north west coast of Tassie is good for the body and soul.
It’s a rugged coastal gem, where wild cliffs and pristine beaches meet refreshing ocean breezes. It’s a perfect escape to reconnect with nature and recharge your spirit.
After a near vertical walk up the famous Nut, the Bond Store sauna will offer welcome relief and really should be followed by a few minutes in the outdoor shower (cold of course) or an ocean dip.
The Bond Store (above & main) is a new lux stay edition to Stanley and is the perfect place to enjoy some down time from a busy touring schedule – slow travel is the new luxury.

Arajilla Retreat, Lord Howe Island, NSW
Set adrift in the Tasman Sea, Lord Howe Island is a pristine sanctuary where nature does the healing. Think crystal-clear lagoons, volcanic peaks and some of the world’s southernmost coral reefs.
With no crowds, limited visitors and a slow island rhythm, it’s a rare place to truly unplug, breathe deeply and restore body and mind.
There’s quite possibly nowhere better to really get away from it all than at this luxurious retreat on Lord Howe Island where you can totally unplug from the world – that’s right, no mobile coverage, no Wi-Fi and no TVs in any of the 12 suites.
Nestled within palms and banyan trees, Arajilla offers a relaxed self-contained stay experience. You can source snacks and produce from their guest deli or cycle to a close by dinner spot. There are many day walks to enjoy with the ultimate climb being Mt Gower.
