The Cassowary

The owners define Cassowary as an ecologically sound concept.  Due to its custom design, Cassowary has been awarded a five-star rating for energy efficiency which contributes to reducing Cassowary's carbon footprint.  Cassowary is a superb fusion of luxury and self-sustainment in a natural setting.

From the high-end teak imported furniture, colourful accents and fabrics to the 'Dana' series oil on canvas art pieces, Cassowary exudes elegance and luxury in the tropics.

Comfortably accommodating up to 12 guests, Cassowary has three double suites complete with walk in robe and marble bathroom, private balconies and water features with views of the lush rainforest.  There are three single suites, each with two single beds. Cassowary has an automated clipsal system with high speed Internet, cable TV and state of the art conference facility that overlooks the marble water feature.  

The main pavilion features a fully equipped designer kitchen, sitting area and lounge room while a full bathroom overlooks a water feature with a designer stand alone bath. The living area capitalizes on views of the Douglas Shire, and is designed to maximize energy efficiency. Bedrooms are nestled in the rainforest for greater privacy.
