We had a wonderful experience at Capella. The first thing that struck us was the view of Mt Gower, amazing. The food was fabulous, well presented and good serving sizes. You know your are somewhere special when the staff know you by name after the first day. Mark & Libby were great hosts with a wealth of information on Lord... More

Wonderful 3 night stay, we loved everything about Capella. Mark & Libby were outstanding & the perfect hosts. Enjoying canapés & cocktails around the fire with fellow guests was a most enjoyable thing to do, after an exhilarating day hiking, kayaking and chilling on the beach. The staff were extremely efficient & friendly. Special mention to stand out Kiera. The... More

Ridiculously beautiful views from every window. Amazing service from pick up at airport to drop off three days later. All staff were genuinely down-to-earth with friendly yet still really professional attitudes. Meals were delicious and rooms were comfortable and cozy. Bikes, snorkel gear, backpacks and beach towels were all available to make our stay easier. Mark even came looking for... More

Amazing location, excellent staff and service, great rooms. Food selection could have been better considering the price of the room. Needs some more buggies for the guests however there are bikes hire free of charge. Special thanks to Libby and Mark who were great hosts.

Our first visit to Capella was 18 years ago. This time it was different - even more amazing! The island hasn't changed much (that's a good thing!) but the lodge was just beautiful, having been upgraded significantly in recent years. Food is excellent, generous, delightfully fresh and cooked to perfection. The views from the public spaces are beyond comparison yet... More

Stayed at Capella Lodge for our 20 year anniversary. Beautiful accommodation with breathtaking views - especially from the bedroom upstairs. Loved the fact we had our own private plunge pool to relax in after our walks. Unbelievable food, perfect service. Could not fault anything. The island was great for exploring and so peaceful. Couldn't have asked for better. Spectacular!

Mark and Libby have one first-class property. Room serviced multiple times per day to the highest degree, staff exceeded expectation at every turn, meals and drinks in the OMG category, and attention to detail was beyond pedantic in the best possible way - all this and the ability to relax and feel like it was your own place.

My wife and I spent 5 nights at Capella Lodge on our honeymoon in March. It was wonderful. Perfectly located on a paradise island. The food was first class and the wine list excellent. Like other reviewers I must praise the staff who were genuinely friendly, relentlessly helpful and helped make the stay the highlight of our trip.

Anyone visiting Lord Howe Island and wishes to enjoy stunning views every day and relax in 'beach style' luxury must stay at Capella Lodge! What I enjoyed most about Capella is that it was so private, quiet and set away from other properties, which is how you want to feel on Lord Howe Island – isolated and in paradise! The... More
