A family run home, led by Australian mother and son and our Lotus family


“I’ve honestly been meaning to reach out because I’ve thought about that time at Lotus SO much since then. Being there, surfing every day, and just being around you guys and your mum genuinely had such a bigger impact on me than I think I realised at the time.

It honestly changed what I wanted my life to look like and where I wanted to be.

Just wanted to tell you guys because I’m genuinely so grateful I got to stay there and meet you all. Ugh and I’m dreaming about ur guys food!! Lolll! It’s funny how some experiences end up sticking with you way more than you expect!” - Amelie
