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

We visited Capella last year and booked a return visit this year. Last year's stay was excellent so it was going to be interesting if the high standard we experienced was going to be maintained. Guess what? It was! The accommodation was excellent as was the food and wine but what really made our stay enjoyable was the staff. Robyn,... More

Nice friendly owners and the setting is very peaceful.Fits in so well with the lovely quiet setting of the island.Had a very comfortable stay. The meals are good and the place is very clean and is well kept.

The lodge and the island are gorgeous, we loved our stay. We stayed in a lagoon loft room which was very comfortable and with a stunning view from the... More

Having planned to stay for 3 days, weather after the Australia Day weekend "stranded" us for another 3 days at Capella. We never felt so lucky! Everything about the Lodge was superb: Libby and Mark were exceptional hosts, and the whole crew wonderful. We'd heard about the Island and Capella from friends in New York, and both did not disappoint.... More

It was the most wonderful trip in one of the most precious and still largely untouched places in the world. It felt so rare to be in the middle of the remote ocean and experience the might of the ocean,... More
