Ispirato ai campi di lusso dell'Africa, Bamurru Plains offre un'esperienza davvero unica in una splendida cornice di bush.
Situato sulle pianure alluvionali costiere del fiume Mary ai margini del Kakadu National Park, l'enfasi di Bamurru è quella di esporvi a uno degli ecosistemi più significativi dell'Australia.
Questa proprietà privata di 300 km² ospita un'immensa diversità di fauna selvatica. Il design stesso dei dieci bungalow safari ti consente di osservare la parata della fauna selvatica emergere per nutrirsi della pianura alluvionale dalla comodità del tuo letto!
Un ampio programma di tour si concentra sull'esplorazione del paese circostante lontano dal safari lodge, con gite in airboat nelle zone umide, crociere fluviali alla ricerca di coccodrilli che cuociono al sole, birdwatching, serate di astronomia, safari via terra e passeggiate guidate nella natura selvaggia, mentre l'antica roccia l'arte e la cultura indigena sono una facile gita di un giorno facoltativa a Kakadu e Arnhem Land.
Anche se accessibile su strada in sole tre ore, Bamurru si raggiunge meglio con un volo charter privato da Darwin, ammirando i meandri del fiume Adelaide, altrimenti noto come "l'Okavango australiano".
Rooms
Safari Bungalow
Nine safari bungalows are raised on stilts overlooking the floodplain with mesh screen ceiling to floor walls on three sides around the bed, providing guests with an experience in which they can hear, see and almost touch the wildlife and wilderness around them.
The alarm clock in the morning is the call of Magpie Geese and Whistling Kites and the orange light of dawn spreading across the floodplain, all audible and visible without having to leave your bed. The décor reflects the region's earlier indigenous and pastoral history, with buffalo horns, explorer's maps
Aboriginal art work and fish traps providing guests with a sense of the human heritage of the area. The focus is on a supremely comfortable bed (organic cotton linen), spacious ensuite bathroom with high pressure showers. Each room has a cold water thermos, local flora and fauna reading materials, species lists and binoculars.
Kingfisher Suite
Sleeps 5 guests
Our largest safari bungalow is the Kingfisher Suite with expansive floodplain views through Bamurru’s trademark ceiling to floor mesh walls. It really does feel as if you are right amongst it with an intimate sense of connection to the wildlife and wilderness outside.
With 81m2 space in the bedroom alone, the suite features a king size bed, generous lounge area and space to accommodate a family of five in comfort. For honeymooners looking for a sense of privacy, the size of the Kingfisher Suite allows for an intimate in-room candlelit dinner with only the sounds of the bush as company.
The bathroom features twin basins and showers, within a décor of rustic chic timber and recycled corrugated walls, utterly in tune with the environment and pastoral heritage of the area. For maximum exposure (and only the local Agile Wallabies as company) the suite also offers a shower with full ceiling to floor views across the floodplain and surrounding paperbark forests.
Jabiru Suite
Sleeps 8 guests
Jabiru Retreat is a private ‘camp within a camp’ experience featuring two safari bungalows connected via a raised walkway leading to an exclusive-use plunge pool. Alongside is an alfresco lounge and dining space with a view overlooking the lush plains that attract abundant wildlife including buffalo, agile wallabies, brumbies and an incredible variety of birdlife including magpie geese and the retreat’s namesake, the Jabiru.
