FAR OUT LUXUR

1 SAFFIRE FREYCINET 

If you haven't yet visited this luxury Tasmanian lodge, chances are it's been topping your lust list since it opened in 2010. Sublime undulating architecture is embedded into the even more sublime and undulating surrounds to make this the place to go when you need more awe in your life. Each of the 20 rooms has views for days while the four private pavilions - each with its own plunge pool - offer the ultimate luxe stay. The elegant food and drinks are on free flow and service is delivered with a hyper-personal touch. It's also one of the few luxury Australian lodges where children are welcome, if it's family connection you crave. saffire-freycinet.com.au

2 KITTAWA LODGE 

On the rugged coastline of Tasmania's King Island, surrounded by the Bass Strait, two chic one-bedroom lodges sit separately but together in quiet, perspective-shifting luxury. If this prospect already sounds like heaven, ready yourself for May when chef Christine Manfield will be in residence to cook private dinners for lodge guests, who hire the property exclusively.
