16 Newberry Road, Dunsborough, WA 6281

Tucked into the charming heart of Old Dunsborough, Lanterns Retreat is a rare and high-end offering: a French-inspired luxury lodge and beautifully appointed residence on a lush 1,529m² *corner block, just moments from the beach and town centre.
With a long-held reputation, this beloved retreat has consistently held the number one ranking on Tripadvisor and earned a place in the prestigious Hall of Fame. It is now presented for sale as a fully operational, walk-in walk-out business.
The guest wing includes four individually styled king suites, three of which feature private spa baths. A central lounge with soaring ceilings and a wood fireplace offers a peaceful space to gather or unwind. A separate breakfast area and dedicated guest entrance support smooth, independent operation.

Privately positioned at the rear of the building, the owners' quarters are designed for both comfort and functionality. A newly renovated kitchen with stone benchtops and premium appliances opens to spacious dining and living areas, a secluded alfresco courtyard, and established garden nooks. The layout includes three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a study or fourth bedroom, and multiple indoor and outdoor living zones, ideal for hosting or retreating.

The gardens are fully reticulated and beautifully manicured year-round, with shaded verandahs, granite walls, and high fencing offering privacy and tranquillity. Shared features include a private pool with tropical gazebo, a woodfired pizza oven, and a small putting green.  A double garage and seven guest parking bays complete the offering.

Sustainability has been thoughtfully considered, with two solar hot water systems, an 8.8kW solar array, a hybrid inverter with battery storage, and passive design features that ensure year-round comfort. Two slow-combustion fireplaces provide additional warmth during the cooler months.

Lanterns Retreat is offered fully furnished and operational (excluding personal effects), with confirmed forward bookings through to June 2026. Whether you're seeking a refined business with a proven track record, or a lifestyle shift in one of the South West's most sought-after locales, this exceptional property delivers on both fronts.
