Calabash Bay Lodge

Multi-storey dark-clad lodge set into a bushland hillside above Berowra Waters with blooming Jacaranda, decks and timber jetty, landscape design by Secret Gardens

Our Calabash Bay Lodge project was another collaboration with our client Wild Luxury. Situated about an hour out of Sydney at Berowra Waters, and accessible only by boat, this enchanting getaway boasts a wonderful waterfront position surrounded by a captivating natural landscape. This is an ongoing project as we continue to improve the amenity and enjoyment for the guests, focused on ensuring that new works are designed with respect and sensitivity to the surroundings.
