Background information
Regal Retreats is a wholly Australian owned and operated company that is focussed on the high-value, eco-tourism and leisure market. Formed in 2014 it has been established by Andrew MacDonald with environmentally conscious principles in mind and a desire to link people with the natural world. By creating a real connection with nature it is a core belief that a sustainable future is created – as only when someone appreciates something and understands it do they truly want to protect it for everyone’s future.
Each Mistere property under the Regal Retreats brand has been individually curated in environments that are at the same time, accessible yet private and tranquil. The serenity of seclusion is available in each location close to the comforts of civilisation. Whether it is Urliup – outside of Murwillumbah, Nepean Bay on Kangaroo Island, Crescent Bay near Port Arthur or Kingscliff in the Tweed Valley, all Mistere properties are within easy driving distance of an airport and major tourist centres are close by.
Another key aspect of the Mistere eco-retreat and Lodge collection is the use of Art and where possible – monumental art. Art on a scale and in a form so as not to be overwhelmed by the location or the surrounding environment. Art mostly sourced from local Australian artists but also global in reach with world-class pieces individually chosen by the owner – some whimsical and some more serious – but all captivating. Art that will inspire and heighten the senses providing more memories to share and a desire to create.
