A celebration of difference, beauty, and richness at the intersection of people, place, and culture; the design aesthetic embraces the African wild and the Australian landscape. Set within Monarto Safari Park in South Australia, Monarto Safari Resort is a luxury hospitality destination that thoughtfully explores the overlap of African and Australian landscapes and cultural identities. Taking cues from the sights, patterns, people, craft, and colour that evoke a sense of place, the interiors form a creative amalgamation of two continents in an eclectic curation.
