The world’s Best Hotels in Southern Ocean Lodge

Southern Ocean Lodge has been named one of the world’s best hotels by influential international travel magazine, Conde Nast Traveller. Naming Southern Ocean Lodge as one of its Hot List Hotels 2009, the US edition describes the property as a, “thoroughly evolved eco-wilderness lodge,” offering, “panoramic ocean views from the pristine clifftop brushland it inhabits.” The UK edition goes on to describe the view from Southern Ocean Lodge – one of only two Australian resorts to make the exclusive list – as, “like standing on the prow of a great liner with water and sky all around.” SA Tourism Commission chief Andrew McEvoy said the latest accolade was testimony to the vision and commitment of Baillie Lodges, South Ocean Lodge’s owner, in building the Hanson Bay property. “James Baillie and his team have dedicated themselves to building eco-friendly, world-class accommodation that is bringing the world to South Australia and promoting Kangaroo Island as a pristine international destination,” Mr McEvoy said. “Recognition through Conde Nast Traveller’s worldwide Hot Hotels list means that readers from the UK, the US and around the world will not only put Southern Ocean Lodge on their list of must-stay places, but it reinforces Kangaroo Island’s status as a must-see destination for international visitors.”
