El Questro Homestead

I spent four fabulous nights at the homestead. Everything was just perfect and I thoroughly enjoyed my stay which was incomparably better than the nearby Emma Gorge Resort (where I spent two nights). The service was great, the hosts/ hostesses charming. Highly recommended.

We have just got back to London after a superb trip of Australia and New Zealand. Thanks again to Jodie and her team at El Questro Homestead for their fantastic welcome and services in amazing El Questro. It was truly a lifetime of memories for us and we do hope to be back & have not stopped recommending it to everyone. Each and every one of you were top notch and the whole experience amazing. The scenarios are breathtaking and so was the service and expertise. GO PEOPLE its a trip of a lifetime for sure.

An extraordinary Indigenous Culture Session but we were disappointed by the noxious diesel generator noise adjacent to the campground, which ran 24 hours a day; El Questro is known as a “Wilderness Park”, surely they can turn the generator off after 10 pm and use solar energy which is in abundance there and in keeping with the wilderness motto?

Just spend 3 nights in this secluded place, a real oasis From start to finish, staff really makes you feel at home Friendly, relaxed ,yet professional All included. Also great trips around the property. Motivated guides Although no haute cuisine, the food is excellent, and they make notice of all your restrictions Although not the level of the Awasi Patagonia, or the Shinta Mani Wild resort, this place is relaxing and of a high level We did find our garden view not cozy, it needs a refurbishment Room looked tired Still a great stay, after our Gibb road trip

My husband and I embarked on an odyssey across Australia's remote wilderness areas. First stop the World Heritage-listed Ningaloo Reef, then El Questro in the north-eastern Kimberleys, followed by five days in Kakadu, ending with five days on Lizard Island, most northern of the Great Barrier Reef getaways. None of it was cheap because we flew thousands of kilometres by plane and the remote locations added to the cost. Our five days at El Questro were the priciest and the most memorable by far. Everything about the homestead stay is six-star luxury in the most relaxed, unpretentious way. We loved the daily itinerary they arranged for us as we were ferried to heli pads, river barges, and rainforest gorges. We hiked, we swam, we took in the sights, and each night we dined under a canopy of stars, sharing stories with our fellow travellers. El Questro's staff were six-star, too. They are not your run-of-mill hospitality workers. Everyone is educated in the environmental sciences, and they share their knowledge. These are folk committed to the world's wilderness areas who want to share the love. The food was fabulous, as you would expect, as were the rooms, the ambience, and the attention to detail. We even got a farewell gift that I use daily. It reminds me that some experiences are priceless, and that's what you are paying for.
