About Kittawa Lodge

Created by sea-changers, Aaron Suine and Nick Stead, Kittawa Lodge has quickly solidified its position as one of Australia’s best new luxury accommodation offerings (read more about our awards and recognition here). Aaron, as a Partner of a national law firm, and Nick, as an organisational psychologist at Australia’s leading investment bank, lived a fast-paced lifestyle in Paddington, New South Wales. Though we had long-held ambitions to create a luxury lodge, showcasing a unique part of Australia. Having grown-up in regional areas of New South Wales, we aspired to once-again be embraced by a tight-knit community, bountiful in world-class produce and artistic talent, so our young son could thrive and flourish. When we came across King Island, while watching Landline one weekend, we knew we had found something special, and that we had finally discovered the place we had been dreaming about for over 10 years. Five years later, after careful planning, Kittawa Lodge was born. An image of luxurious seclusion, we wanted to create a retreat for discerning travellers seeking to disconnect, to rejuvenate, to romance or to relax.
