Governor’s Lodge Resort Hotel

Norfolk Island is well-known for its rolling green hills, untouched coastline and a strong connection to Australia's past. Visitors love that locals are proud of their island paradise, doing anything they can to protect their home, and there isn't a place more remnant of this environmentally conscious spirit than Governor's Lodge Resort Hotel - or 'Gov's' as it's affectionately known. With 55 private cottages sprinkled across the 12-acre property, experience true Norfolk hospitality with a stay at this environmentally sustainable accommodation option.

Gov's is the first and only accommodation on the island to be completely energy self-sufficient. Generating 52000 watts of solar power, Gov's not only powers it's 55 stand-alone cottages, but also feeds back into the Norfolk community as well. Not just taking advantage of the Sun, Gov's amazing rainwater tanks have a 2 million litre capacity.

Environmentally Friendly:

Proud of their charming island utopia, the team at Gov's want to ensure visitors can enjoy their home for decades to come. Not only self-sufficient, Gov's goes the extra mile and uses recycled and energy efficient materials wherever possible. From their low wattage lights, biologically friendly laundry products and grey water and green water systems, the team at Gov’s do everything that they can to reduce their carbon footprint.

Supporting Norfolk Locals:

Gov's is not only environmentally friendly but is also socially sustainable. When you stay in one of their private cottages, sprawled across the stunning 12 acres of majestic pines and gardens, you will be serviced exclusively by Norfolk locals. Not only does this ensure their community can support themselves, but you will be immersed in an authentic experience unmatched anywhere else in the world. Extending beyond their hotel staff, even the food is sourced from the local community. Delivered fresh each day, enjoy a meal at Gov's on-site bar and restaurant that you simply can't get elsewhere.
