Manuka Lodge

Our wonderful guests from France enjoying what is on offer as they prepare for a week of preparation and competition. Go GMT94 Yamaha et bon chance les bleu!

Definitely worth a visit. Great food here

Our rich wildlife is one of the things that makes this Island such a beautiful place. Try not to squash them on our roads... slow down for our special Cape Barren Geese and those suicidal purple hens who just like to get to the other side of the road. Don't ask why, they just do. Speed limit on the Island is 80kph max. Please observe and keep your eyes peeled.

As the Big Day draws near, wishing all who celebrate a Merry Christmas and if Christmas is not your thing, enjoy the festivities anyway. Be kind to each other and Good Will to all People.

The festive season tree is up to warm the hearts of our guests who have chosen this time of year to stay. We try hard to please!

Installed! Technician advice on optimal settings surprised me!
For cooling on hot days set to 24 degrees that is down from mid to high 30s outside! He the went on to say for heating set to 20 degrees. That is up from low teens outside! Makes sense!

Today we had a split system air and heat. This is in response to our guests asking for cooling! So now we have it! Thanks to all our guests who have stayed and enjoyed all that we have to offer!

Always fresh, always variety, always friendly. Nothing compares. Just know they do not open Mondays. Love the fish here!

Light up your day

Lady Aurora came to visit last night...and what a show!

The Aurora Australis (Southern Lights) is best viewed on a clear, cloudless night from the south coast of the island away from any light pollution (link in comments for Aurora forecasts).

A great walk! Not too far from us.

If you love walks with breathtaking views then Pyramid Rock to Berry’s Beach should make its way onto your Phillip Island bucket list!

The walk is approx 5km return and starts at the Pyramid Rock lookout, where the striking silhouette of Pyramid Rock is set against the waters of Bass Strait. To the right of the car park is a track that will take you along the clifftop towards Berry's Beach. Spectacular coastal views are guaranteed!

A special place for many reasons.... here is one.

🌌Did you know that Autumn, Winter and Spring are the best times to visit Phillip Island for stargazing?

🌠The cold air holds less hazy moisture than balmy summer air, meaning the nights tend to be a lot clearer if there is no cloud cover. The longer nights of Autumn and Winter tend to help too and are also ideal for gazing into the night sky with the whole family, including the little ones. If you want to spot the Milkyway, the season runs from March - November!
