An island the size of a continent, Australia delivers a plethora of unique honeymoon experiences that will leave you speechless. Cosmopolitan cities? Tick. World-famous beaches? Check. Lush landscapes? Of course. This is a honeymoon in Australia that will offer enchanting touchstones to all aspects of Australia’s engrossing culture.
Your romantic adventure begins in the wild Blue Mountains, where you’ll be enchanted by the endless vistas of sandstone ridges, verdant valleys and native bushland. Your home here is the Emirates One&Only Wolgan Valley, set right in the heart of this pristine World Heritage region and take advantage of the nature walks and animal encounters on offer. It goes without saying, the lodge is a destination in its own right and, among the seven thousand acres of wild landscapes, you can head out on all manner of experiences with their team of field guides. Go on walks along Carne Creek, soak up colonial heritage and spot kangaroos, wombats and more during your stay.
From the countryside of Wolgan Valley you’ll travel to the cosmopolitan urban buzz of Sydney, Australia’s most iconic city. Here you’ll enjoy a Sydney Harbour luxury cruise, soak up a Sydney Opera House tour and the opportunity to release your inner daredevil with a climb on the Harbour Bridge for breathtaking views of the harbour.
After three nights in Sydney, you will continue onwards to Hamilton Island, the largest inhabited island in the Whitsundays. You’ll relax for five nights at Qualia, a heavenly resort that occupies a romantic spot on the island’s northern tip – the perfect location to conclude your honeymoon. It’s also your springboard to explore the Great Barrier Reef, Heart Reef and the rippling sands of Whitehaven Beach, often lauded as Australia’s most beautiful beach. Don’t worry, although there is plenty to see and do here, you’ll also have plenty of downtime to relax as a couple. You’ll then spend your final night in Sydney before reluctantly heading home with memories of Australia forever etched in your memory.

Where you’ll stay
Emirates One&Only Wolgan Valley, Blue Mountains
If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to stay in the heart of the raw Australian bush, then the Emirates One&Only Wolgan Valley is a luxury way to find out the answer. Dramatically pitched in the Blue Mountains, this is a resort that marries luxurious tranquillity with an unbreakable connection to nature. Treat the seven thousand acres of unblemished wilderness as your playground and the resort’s impressive guides are your key to unlock the Blue Mountains’ wildlife, ecology and Aboriginal history.
Intercontinental Sydney, Sydney
Housed in the city’s former Treasury Building and right on the edge of Sydney Harbour, the InterContinental Sydney boasts a location that’s hard to beat. The hotel breathes new life into the building’s sandstone heritage with contemporary decor, mixing quirky elements like one of Sydney’s most elegant spots for high tea with the southern hemisphere’s oldest lift. You’re also close to the renowned Opera House and the Royal Botanic Gardens, but we wouldn’t blame you if you never left the knockout Sydney Harbour views from your room.
Qualia, Hamilton Island
If island indulgence is what you’re after, you needn’t look further than Qualia. One of Australia’s most exclusive escapes on lush Hamilton Island in the Whitsundays, the desire to keep the resort in sync with the pristine environment makes it feel even more remote and serene – the pavilions feel delightfully private enveloped by foliage. Built by the billionaire winemaking Oatley family, the snorkelling opportunities, sanctuary-like spa and velvety sands are matched by a no-expenses spared approach.
