The Poinciana Cottages are tucked away down a quiet countryside lane in the Norfolk Islands. A short ride from the International airport; these free-standing accommodations are apt for couples and honeymooners looking for a quiet holiday nest. Whether guests seek to unwind and be one with nature, explore the Arthur’s Vale area or spend a day in town, the Poinciana Cottages is a great choice for a Norfolk holiday.
The Poinciana Cottages welcome travellers to one-bedroom units, each inspired and named after a flower. Inside, awning windows bring in fresh air and sunshine, while the well-appointed living area invites guests to unwind over a cup of hot beverage or two. The full kitchen is a welcome change, especially on days when take-outs won’t do.
The bedroom features a king bed, complete with deluxe linens and pillows. Steps away, the ensuite bath is furnished with a shower section, a vanity and other modern comforts. For a detailed description, please check our page on the Poinciana Cottages.
Each free-standing Poinciana cottage — Lavender, Daisy, Rose and Azalea — are nooks of comfort dotting Poinciana’s grounds. The cosy interiors, taking after Norfolk’s sense of balanced minimalism, are great for unwinding after a day of discovering the island’s many charms.
Speaking of charms, guests at the cottages would love to wander the property grounds – there are landscaped flower-patches, trees and banks of sweet-smelling wildflowers, and they highlight Norfolk’s natural beauty. An even better idea would be a refreshing early morning countryside tramp!
If physical activities aren’t appealing (it’s a holiday, after all), holidaymakers can just chill on the cottage patio. It is easily accessible via sliding glass-doors from the living space, and is well-appointed with island-inspired seating. Enjoy a warm cup of morning brew as the sun rises above the horizon or watch it set over a glass or two of local beverages.
Also, there’s a summer kitchen set amidst the landscaped garden that’s complete with a lounge setting, cold beverages and books. Unwind in quietude, surrounded by Norfolk’s brand of serenity. Conversely, don that apron and fire up that BBQ grill for al fresco bites over shared conversations and laughter.
Norfolk Island is like a subcontinent in itself – just miniaturised! It’s home to undulating topography with gently-rolling hills and lush vegetation. While possible, covering it all on foot is an… extremely sweaty idea. Fortunately, hire-car services are available at Poinciana and a set of four wheels is easy to book. Cruise along rocky coastlines, coastal highways and pull up to a hill’s base; just remember — sheep have the right of way here.
Speaking of ‘going about’, there’s much travellers can invest their time in. One of Norfolk Island’s best-kept secrets is picnics. Have one on any of the uncrowded beaches, by the edge of the woods or have a spread at Captain Cook’s monument.
Of course, there’s the more usual set of activities to be had, namely walking tours, hikes, treks, angling and more.
