At Tanonga, deliberate plantings of over 25,000 native trees, shrubs, understorey grasses and sedges recreate the sheoak grassy and sugar gum woodlands that once dominated this local landscape.

There are over 100 recorded bird species in the area and specific attention has been paid to plantings which encourage birdlife, particularly for endangered, vulnerable and rare species such as the Yellow-Tailed Black Cockatoo.

The luxury eco lodges at Tanonga were designed by architect Gianni Zandel to embrace the principles of eco sensitivity both in design and construction. Care was taken from the onset to minimise energy, water, waste and fuel use throughout the building phase, and beyond.

Staying at Tanonga is a wonderful way to experience the splendor of nature and architecture working together to produce a uniquely luxurious, sensitive and sustainable environment.
