The quintessential Australian beach escape

Think of Australian coastal getaways and Bannisters by the Sea comes to mind. This much-loved boutique hotel in Mollymook on the NSW South Coast has earned a reputation for its fresh Rick Stein-inspired seafood, panoramic ocean views and laidback ambience. All guestrooms have great sea views, which only adds to that get-away-from-it-all feeling, and the surf is a stroll away. Sister hotel Bannisters Pavilion is the newer addition to the Bannisters name and sits 800 metres away, enjoying easy access to the white sands and aqua shoreline of North Mollymook beach. There is rooftop dining and a cantilevered pool that extends beyond the building, now a Bannisters signature, while a wet-edge pool at Bannisters by the Sea is complemented by a cocktail and pizza bar. The hotels are small enough to provide personal service and luxe enough for a sophisticated stay. Two of the Bannisters penthouse suites are decorated by designer Collette Dinnigan, with custom fittings and panoramic ocean views from private decks, while a dining experience in Rick Stein at Bannisters is a must during your stay. bannisters.com.au
