Alkira Resort House for sale by Lynn Malone and Barbara Wolveridge from Queensland Sotheby's, is a sanctuary of tranquillity and tropical splendour where the UNESCO World Heritage-listed wonders of the world, the Daintree Rainforest and the Great Barrier Reef converge. An almost 30-hectare oceanfront paradise with 600 metres of white-sand beach is the pristine setting for one of Australia's most iconic and unduplicatable boutique eco-resorts.
In harmony with nature, the award-winning Alkira Resort House exemplifies off-grid luxury and is a model for carbon-neutral, sustainable living.
Alkira operates as a boutique resort with accommodation for 12 guests, event capacity 100 and on-site management. Two and half hours drive from Cairns international airport serving domestic and international flights is 30 minutes by helicopter to Alkira Resort House or a 2.5-hour scenic drive via the Akira10-seater coach.
There is ample land over the 30 hectares of beachfront property for more guest accommodation and resort facilities. It is an ideal setting for corporate retreats, weddings and milestone events, and speciality retreats such as yoga and cooking schools.
Lynn Malone, commented,“For those seeking a secluded, exclusive eco-retreat, Alkira represents another dimension as a luxury boutique resort in the heart of the Daintree Rainforest and adjacent to the Great Barrier Reef.”
Ms Malone added, “Access is via an easy scenic drive from the Cairns Airport or guests can arrive at the property at the Alkira helipad.”
The residence was conceived by architect Charles Wright where the boundaries between the interiors and outdoors dissolve across its 1,059 square metres of living spaces. Fully furnished and equipped to accommodate 12 overnight guests, the six cantilevered wings are suspended over an engineered lake ecosystem and then unified by a show-piece swimming pool. The interiors with easy-care polished concrete floors throughout are complemented by cascading waterfalls and a landscaped courtyard.
Alkira celebrates a tropical lifestyle over two living levels including a sleek commercial-grade kitchen, four lounge areas, and two dining areas. There are six bedroom suites - each air-conditioned with a marble-clad bathroom, custom wardrobes, and a private covered balcony.
Timber-clad guest suite walls create a cosy warmth while connecting lakefront balconies. Select features of the Alkira Resort are an executive office, a 2,400-bottle temperature-controlled wine cellar, a state-of-the-art gym, and a boardwalk to the private beach.
Separately, Mango House, a three-bedroom, two-bathroom manager's residence, is sited about 500 metres from the Alkira Resort House and accessed by a separate driveway.
It is a one and a half hour drive from Port Douglas, one of the most popular holiday destinations in Queensland with shops, restaurants and a super yacht marina. Cairns international airport is a 2.5-hour scenic drive from Alkira, or 30 minutes by helicopter from the resort's private helipad. The Cape Tribulation township is five minutes away from cafes, shops and services. Cape Tribulation is a favoured departure point for Great Barrier Reef cruises and dive trips to the Lower Isles and Daintree National Park is two kilometres away.
Queensland Sothebys agent Barbara Wolveridge told, The Hotel Conversation, “Alkira was designed and engineered using advanced sustainability initiatives that embrace the challenges of tropical weather.”
