Off-Grid Detox: The Best Remote Stays in Western Australia

Because sometimes the best connection isn’t 5G, it’s the one you find under the stars, by the fire, in nature.

If your inbox is overflowing and screen time is creeping up again, it might be time to truly go offline. Going off the grid means slowing down, breathing deeply, and reconnecting with the grounding energy of Western Australia’s landscapes. Fortunately, WA is blessed with vast, soul-stirring scenery and secluded stays where Wi-Fi is weak, but the connection to nature — and yourself — is anything but.

Whether you’re craving coastal calm, outback silence, or forest serenity, the best remote stays in Western Australia promise a restorative break. No notifications, no stress — just you, the wilderness, and maybe a campfire or two. Bliss.

Heyscape Tiny Cabins 

These chic tiny eco-cabins welcome everyone—couples, families, and even furry companions for an off-grid yet oh-so-luxe retreat immersed in nature. Don’t be fooled by their size; Heyscape packs in everything needed for a peaceful escape while feeling miles away from civilisation. We’re talking sweeping views, private patios, gorgeous outdoor baths, luxurious bed linens and bespoke extras like yoga mats, board games and incredible picnic spreads.

Heyscape’s cabins can be found in some of WA’s most remarkable getaways, from Serpentine to Esperance, so there’s plenty for you to choose from. Right now, though, our eyes are on their jaw-dropping Denmark expansion, which will see 15 new premium off-grid cabins (three dual cabins, eight single cabins and four family cabins) open up in Denmark’s Raintree Estate between this spring and autumn 2026. The interconnected dual cabins are first up, with bookings now live for stays from 21st of November. Complete with an interconnecting common area, your own private sauna overlooking the karri forest and side-by-side sunken outdoor baths, the unique new two-cabin format is calling for a Denmark retreat with your nearest and dearest.

Sitchu tip: To celebrate the launch, Heyscape Denmark has teamed up with Raintree Estate to offer the first guests a chance to truly live ‘dam’ well. The Living ‘Dam’ Well Package is valued at $2,700 and is available for a limited time at *$2,195 for all four guests ($183pp a night). It includes a three-night escape for up to four guests in a new dual cabin, premium antipasto box, house-made cocktail kit, lunch at The Dam and a curated Heyscape gift set to take home. Terms and conditions apply. Head to the website for all the details.

Berkeley River Lodge

Tucked away in the wild beauty of the Kimberley and only accessible by air, Berkeley River Lodge is Australia’s most remote luxury lodge — and worth every scenic second it takes to get there. You’ll stay in a private villa with a king bed, open-air ensuite, and freestanding bath for a soak under the stars. It’s all-inclusive too, with river cruises, epic 4WD adventures, an infinity pool and top-tier dining. With so much beauty to see and explore, you’ll forget you even have a phone… unless you’re using it to try and get a winning sunset shot.

Donnelly River Village

Donnelly River Village

Step back in time at Donnelly River Village, a former timber mill town now transformed into a rustic, community-run retreat. With charming heritage cottages straight from another era, no phone reception, and curious emus and kangaroos wandering freely as if they own the place, it’s the perfect spot to log off and let the days unfold slowly. Think board games, bushwalks, and sipping red wine by campfires beneath the stars.

Wooleen Station

Wooleen Station

Spanning 134,000 hectares of rugged semi-arid shrubland, Wooleen Station invites you to immerse yourself in Western Australia’s red-dirt heartland. Here, embracing a sustainable ethos means switching off your devices and surrendering to the slow rhythm of the land. The homestead accommodation, with its warm timber interiors and sweeping open verandahs, feels like stepping back in time, while the vast, unpolluted night sky above promises a celestial spectacle you’ll carry with you forever.

The Cove Chalets

The Cove Chalets

Tucked beneath towering karri trees and overlooking the tranquil waters of Wilson Inlet, The Cove offers a collection of hand-crafted timber cabins straight from a Nordic fairytale — yet just minutes from Denmark town and the beach. With no Wi-Fi or television to distract, it’s a sanctuary of simplicity: think crackling wood fires, kayaks gliding over glassy water, and the occasional curious kangaroo. Spend your days wandering Denmark’s lush trails or lost in a book on the jetty, the gentle inlet lapping at your feet.
