El Questro Homestead, Broome, The Kimberley & Coral Coast, Australia, Australasia
El Questro Homestead, Kimberley Outback
Truly one of the world’s last remaining wild frontiers, El Questro Homestead boasts a million acres of awe-inspiring and remarkable scenery in the heart of the ancient Kimberley Outback in the far north of Western Australia (100kms west of Kununurra).
This spectacular landscape incorporates magnificent mountain ranges, rambling rivers, countless gorges, cascading waterfalls and a myriad of thermal springs - and to the south looms El Questro’s most famous neighbour - the Bungle Bungle Range where millions of years of erosion have created the unique beehive-shaped domes for which this fascinating massif is now world-renowned.
Highlights
Sleep
Back in 1990, Will and Celia Burrell were drawn to the neglected beauty of this million acre wilderness. They slept in a tent under the stars when they first arrived - but today, guests can relax in the comfort of the acclaimed El Questro Homestead. Built from local materials and perched high on a rocky ledge overlooking the Chamberlain River, this exclusive ten room retreat ensures that you do not have to ‘rough it’ in this vast Kimberley Outback! Terracotta paved floors, large verandahs and the use of earthy colours allow the timeless landscape of the Kimberley’s aged rust-red rocks to flow visually indoors.

Our Passion Runs Deep
We are - and always have been - mad about travel. For almost 25 years we've been scouring the globe for the best places to stay, the newest routes to take, the perfect people to meet. No-one will care more about your holiday.
Definition of Luxury
Luxury means something different to everyone. Whether you are seeking the silence of vast spaces, the isolation of a private island, the buzz of a new city, the adrenaline of a safari or anything in between, we listen, we learn, we advise.
Fun & Refreshing
We endeavour that every Turquoise experience is unique, fun and refreshing. Travel is all about experiences, about serendipitous moments and endless smiles. It is a joy and an honour to plan each and every Turquoise holiday.
