Bali Hai

Port Douglas, Australia

Style Remote rainforest refinement

Setting Tropical North Queensland

Bali Hai is the epitome of stylish self-catering and comprises four Balinese-inspired huts; three of them bedrooms and one the main house. The heady combination of cool stone floors, warm thatched roofs and Indonesian antiques is splendidly arrayed against the backdrop of the spectacular Daintree Mountains. Indulge your inner oligarch and book a poolside full body massage, or float around the infinity pool with a cocktail. More pioneering types might prefer to dip their toes in the nearby natural springs. The huts may be rustic but they don’t stint on the creature comforts. Coco Chanel, that doyenne of style, believed that luxury must be comfortable or else it simply isn’t luxury. Those responsible for this self-catering showstopper evidently agree.
