Australia’s Ultimate Luxury Wildlife Escape
Now open, Monarto Safari Resort is redefining what it means to escape into the wild—blending immersive safari adventure with understated luxury, right here in South Australia.
Set within the spectacular Monarto Safari Park—the largest open-range safari experience outside of Africa—this remarkable resort offers the rare opportunity to stay among free-roaming wildlife while enjoying the comforts of a world-class retreat. Located less than an hour from Adelaide, it’s an easy yet unforgettable getaway into nature.
Spanning nearly 18 hectares, the resort features a luxury hotel, lodge, and wellness spa—all thoughtfully designed with sustainability and sophistication in mind. The hotel’s 78 spacious rooms and suites are spread across three levels, many overlooking a wildlife watering hole where animals from the adjacent park regularly gather.
Onsite, guests can unwind with two swimming pools, a pool bar and café, restaurant and bar, and premium conference facilities—ideal for everything from romantic weekends to corporate escapes. The resort’s day spa includes a vitality pool, sauna, and cold plunge pool for those in search of relaxation and rejuvenation.
For an even more immersive stay, the Safari Lodge offers 20 tented luxury suites with panoramic views of the open plains. With its own private lodge, gourmet dining, bar, and plunge pool, this is an extraordinary way to experience the raw beauty of the wilderness—without giving up the finer things.
And it doesn’t stop at the doorstep. Guests have direct access to Monarto Safari Park’s Wild Africa precinct, home to lions, giraffes, rhinos, and other magnificent species. Whether you're watching animals gather at dusk from your balcony or waking to the sounds of the savannah, Monarto is a place where nature takes the lead.
