THE LODGE"everything you need and nothing you don’t."
Guludo's beautiful design, from world renown architect Richard Nightingale, quickly won awards. High roofs, sea breezes, beach views, alfresco en-suite bathrooms with a stunning “loo with a view”; a joy to experience and a masterclass in how to create beautiful design that didn't cost the earth and showcase for local artisans. Nine beachfront "bandas", a restaurant, bar and dive centre overlooked Guludo's breathtaking bay. Days were filled diving on pristine reefs, exploring remote islands, feasting on exquisite seafood and connecting with our local community.
