Condé Nast Readers' Choice 2014 Lists Three Baillie Lodges in Top 10

Southern Ocean Lodge

Baillie Lodges has taken out the trifecta in US Condé Nast Traveler magazine's prestigious Readers' Choice Awards 2014 with all three of its luxury properties earning a place in the list of 10 Best Resorts in Australia and New Zealand.

Kangaroo Island's acclaimed Southern Ocean Lodge has been ranked in first position with a score of 97.35 from a possible 100, making it the number one hotel in the region.

Nine-suite Capella Lodge on World Heritage-listed Lord Howe Island was awarded seventh place in the list with a score of 90.77, while the newly refurbished Baillie Lodges property Longitude 131° at Uluru-Kata Tjuta came in at ninth place with a score of 86.81.

The annual Readers Choice Awards were determined from nearly 77,000 Condé Nast magazine readers around the world who this year submitted more than a million votes for their favourite travel experiences.

Baillie Lodges Managing Director James Baillie said the trio of Readers Choice awards was a first for the Baillie Lodges collection following the addition of the iconic outback 'camp' Longitude 131° in November 2013.
