Experience
More Than a Place to Stay
Hunter Bay House is designed to make experiencing Lord Howe Island effortless.
From days on the water to quiet afternoons at the beach, you’ll have everything you need to explore the island at your own pace – along with local knowledge to help you make the most of every day.
Your private boat
See Lord Howe from the water
One of the most unique parts of a stay at Hunter Bay House is access to MV Chamaeleon, our 7.5 metre custom-built LeisureCat.
A different perspective
Your island adventure begins here
With Chad’s lifetime of experience on Lord Howe Island’s waters, the boat gives you the opportunity to discover the island from a completely different perspective.
Head out fishing, snorkel in clear island waters or simply cruise the coastline and take in the scenery.
Ready when you are
Explore at your own pace
Bicycles make getting around easy, while kayaks, stand-up paddleboards and snorkelling equipment give you everything you need for time on the lagoon and in the water.

Your kind of day
Adventure or absolutely nothing
Sometimes that’s a day out on the boat. Sometimes it’s a walk followed by a swim. And sometimes it’s simply knowing where to go, roll out a picnic mat and spend the afternoon doing absolutely nothing.
Shared with you
Experience the island like a local
We’re always happy to suggest where to snorkel depending on the conditions, which walking track might suit your group, where to find a beautiful picnic spot, where to have dinner, or the perfect place to watch the sunset.
We want you to discover the iconic places, but also the quieter moments that make Lord Howe Island so special.
