Discovery Resorts – Rottnest Island
Floating 19 kilometres off the coast of Perth, ‘Rotto’ — as the locals call it — is nothing short of spectacular. Home to the friendliest marsupials you’ll ever meet (quokkas), 63 idyllic beaches, 20 secluded bays with kaleidoscopic coral reefs and shipwrecks just off the shore, this is a place like no other. Discovery Resorts – Rottnest Island is located on Rottnest Island, approximately a 25-minute ferry from Fremantle or approximately a 90-minute ferry from Perth’s Barrack Street Jetty. Ferry transfers to the island are included in select packages only, please see the Fine Print for details.

The Resort — Tranquil glamping on the edge of Pinky Beach
A haven of tranquillity blessed with a breathtaking coastal location and warm ambience, Discovery Resorts – Rottnest Island offers an environmentally friendly glamping experience worthy of a celebrity — in fact, it hosted Chris Hemsworth and Matt Damon within its first two weeks of opening. Nestled by the iconic Pinky Beach and surrounded by spectacular flora and fauna, this secluded property is home to 83 luxury eco-tents, each fitted with a durable double-layered all-weather canvas and natural yet elegant furnishings. Each pavilion invites you to truly immerse yourself in the magic of this secluded hideaway with a private ensuite and outdoor deck, where you can listen to the birds sing as the sun breaks the dawn.
Celebrate the island’s simple pleasures as you fall asleep to the sound of crashing waves, watch the orange sunset dip towards the Indian Ocean and help protect the environment with connected boardwalks and trails woven through the dunes and across the native landscape. Combining a light environmental footprint with understated luxury, Discovery Resorts – Rottnest Island invites you on an immersive experience where you can enjoy direct beach access and capture a selfie with a local quokka.
