Really good Dining Experience

“I was thoroughly impressed with the quality of the meals at El Questro. Each dining experience was a delight, from the well-chosen wines served at the right temperatures to the beautifully presented dishes. The communal dining setup allowed me to meet fantastic guests while enjoying the meals, especially the private dinner overlooking the gorge on our last night—truly a highlight of our stay!” view full review

Stunning Room Features

“Staying in one of the Cliffside Retreats was a dream come true. The design and construction of the room are excellent, with private balconies offering amazing views over the river. I particularly enjoyed the luxury of taking a bath on the veranda while soaking in the very nice surroundings. It made my stay exceptionally relaxing and nice.” view full review

Luxurious Bathroom Amenities

“I loved how luxurious the bathrooms were at El Questro. They were not only spacious, but also stocked with high-quality Aesop toiletries. The large shower made for a perfect refresh after a long day of exploring. I truly appreciated the attention to detail that made my bathing experience feel like a spa retreat.” view full review

Very nice Leisure Activities

“The range of leisure activities offered was impressive. I particularly enjoyed the nature tours and the gorge cruise—both were complimentary and deeply enriching experiences. I also had the chance to visit the stunning Zebedee Springs, which was a good way to decompress after a day of adventure. Each excursion was not only fun but also allowed me to embrace the natural beauty of the surroundings.” view full review

Staying at The Homestead was simply incredible! The views from our cliffside room were breathtaking, and the atmosphere of sharing meals with fellow guests made for memorable evenings. The tours offered were fantastic, though the sunset tour could have had better time management. Overall, we left wishing we had booked another night to soak in more of the experience and scenery.

My stay at El Questro Homestead was a remarkable journey into the heart of the beautiful Aussie outback. The location is absolutely breathtaking, perched atop a cliff with stunning views of the Chamberlain River. However, while I loved the overall experience, I felt the rooms were in need of some updates and the service, while excellent, could have included a few more modern amenities given the price point. The dining was a highlight, offering exquisite meals that made for a memorable culinary experience.

El Questro Homestead offers a unique blend of breathtaking scenery and exceptional service, making it an amazing destination for nature lovers. The location is stunning, and the activities available are plentiful, which enhances the overall experience. However, the room I stayed in felt outdated and not worth the high price. The dining was somewhat hit or miss, particularly during my stay when the head chef was away.
