Who said you had to sacrifice style to be kind to the environment? Not Eco Beach Wilderness Retreat. This stylish shrine to eco design has it all. Twenty five Eco Villas and 30 safari-style Eco Tents are interlinked by over a kilometre of elevated wooden boardwalks all with views of the multiple blue hues of the Kimberley coastline.
ECO-CREDEco villas are solar powered and guests can monitor their own energy consumption with excess generated energy diverted back into the communal grid for the resort. The boardwalks are made from ‘Eco Decking’, a composite wood decking of recycled polypropolene plastics and wood bi-products, waste water is recycled, cleaning products are biodegradable and televisions don’t exist.
ROMANCE FACTOR
Arrive in style and sail by catamaran from Broome to the red rock shores of Eco Beach then kayak blue water caves, swim with turtles and take a private dinner on your personal deck. Bliss.
