Day 1: Arrival, Gourmet Welcome, and Sunset Views

Morning – Arrival and Check-In

As you drive into Margaret River, take your time and enjoy the journey through eucalyptus-lined country roads and rolling vineyards. On arrival at Edge Luxury Villas, check in and settle into your private villa. Your stay becomes a peaceful retreat from the moment you step inside.

Take in the views, pour a glass of local wine, and breathe in the fresh WA country air.

Afternoon – Gourmet Lunch and a Leisurely Stroll

After a light unpack, enjoy lunch at one of the nearby restaurants or wineries, many offer vineyard-side dining featuring seasonal produce and regional flavours. We recommend:

• Clairault Estate for its multi-course wine-paired menus

• Amelia Park for a combination of fine dining and rolling vineyard views

• Rustico at Hayshed for a more relaxed but equally refined setting

Following lunch, head into Margaret River town centre for a gentle stroll through boutique shops and local art galleries. Pick up a bottle or two of your favourite local wine to enjoy back at your villa.

Evening – Sunset and Private Dining

As the sun begins to set, return to Edge Luxury Villas for a truly WA-style evening. Enjoy the golden hues over the lake from your private deck, light the indoor fireplace (depending on the season), and unwind.

For dinner, you may use the gourmet kitchen in your villa to prepare a simple meal from local ingredients.

Day 2: Wineries, Caves, and Coastal Beauty

Morning – Winery Tours and Tastings

No 3-day luxury escape in WA is complete without sampling some of the region’s best wineries. Consider joining a guided tour so you can relax and fully enjoy the experience, or create your own wine trail. Top-rated cellar doors to include:

• Vasse Felix – Margaret River’s founding estate, known for its Cabernet Sauvignon

• Cullen Wines– Organic and biodynamic, with elegant tastings in a peaceful setting

• Domaine Nasturaliste – Offers a premium wine experience only 1 minute from your villa

Many of these estates also offer gourmet platters and picnic areas if you’re seeking a casual yet luxurious mid-day break.

Afternoon – Caves and Coastal Walks

After lunch, shift from vineyard to underground wonder with a visit to one of Margaret River’s iconic limestone caves. Options include:

• Lake Cave – A stunning, suspended crystal chamber

• Mammoth Cave – Easy access and fascinating fossil displays

• Jewel Cave – One of the largest show caves in WA

Afterwards, head to the coast for a walk along one of the region’s hiking trails. The Cape to Cape Track is a standout, offering ocean views, cliff-top lookouts, and wildflowers during spring.

If you'd rather stay relaxed, find a nearby beach such as Injinup or Yallingup for a peaceful afternoon by the water.

Evening – Casual Dining

Margaret River is not only a wine haven; it's also home to a range of excellent craft breweries perfect for a casual dinner.
Some local favourites include:

• The Servo Taphouse (Cowaramup) – Craft-beer focused small bar with live music and good pub grub.

• Miki’s Open Kitchen (Margaret River) – Renowned Japanese dining with an open kitchen where you can watch chef Miki and team prepare seasonal degustation-style dishes

• Blue Manna Bistro (Dunsborough): Seafood-led bistro famous for ultra-fresh local seafood and Asian-inspired lavors in a relaxed setting

Enjoy a laid-back evening with great food and drinks before returning to your villa for another relaxing night.

Day 3: Markets, Art, and Departure

Morning – Farmers’ Market and Brunch

Start your final day at the Margaret River Farmers' Market (Saturday mornings), where you can enjoy freshly brewed coffee, pastries, local honey, and handmade crafts. Pick up some last-minute gourmet gifts or picnic items for the drive home.

Alternatively, treat yourself to brunch at a countryside café such as:

• White Elephant Beach Cafe – Overlooking the Indian Ocean

• Maison Lassiaille – An incredible French patisserie showing that food and art go hand in hand

Midday – Art, Nature or Final Tastings

If you have time before checkout, visit a local gallery like the JahRoc Galleries or the Melting Pot Glass Studio to admire local creativity. Alternatively, take one last walk along a forest trail or pop into a final winery to make your last tastings count.

Return to Edge Luxury Villas for a relaxed checkout, refreshed, recharged, and already planning your next visit.
