Louth Island
333 acres of rare, untouched coastline
A Vision for Rumi
Rumi on Louth was born from a simple idea. To create a place that did not yet exist. A private island where considered luxury lives in harmony with the natural world.
“We didn’t want to build a resort. We wanted to create a sanctuary. A place to step away from the modern world and return to something more natural, without ever losing comfort.”
— Che & Natasha Metcalfe
Where the desert meets the sea.
Louth Island rests in the calm waters of the Spencer Gulf, a short distance from the mainland. It is a place of contrasts. Red granite outcrops, white sandy beaches, and sheltered coves alive with marine life.
Once a working sheep station, the island has been carefully restored. Thousands of native trees now shape the landscape, and the natural birdlife and ecosystem have returned, slowly and quietly, over time.
