A refined escape on South Australia’s coast
A contemporary Australian retreat shaped by Gulf views, considered design, restorative wellness and sophisticated adults-only entertainment.
Welcome to Banksia House
Banksia House brings relaxed sophistication to Glenelg’s shoreline. Pale limestone, spotted gum, tactile linen and brushed copper create a calm retreat with a distinctly South Australian character.
Begin with breakfast over Gulf St Vincent, follow the coast or venture into wine country, restore in the wellness rooms, then return for produce-led dining or a composed evening in our adults-only lounge.
