The Island

East Bedarra Retreat is one of a small collection of houses located on the private north-east headland of Bedarra Island.

The headland is a parcel of land once owned by Noel Wood, a renowned artist, who spent over 50 years living a Robinson Crusoe style existence on Bedarra Island.

The houses all share access to two glorious tropical beaches, one on the northern side of the headland adjacent to East Bedarra Retreat and one on the southern side of the headland, in addition to shared rainforest shrouded walking tracks.
