The South West continues to reign as WA’s ultimate winter escape—for good reason. From wild coastal beauty and serene bush trails to world-class food and wine, it’s a region that knows how to do both adventure and indulgence. But come July, things turn up a notch.

From 17–26 July, Cabin Fever is back, and it’s bringing the heat to your favourite venues from Busselton to Margaret River and beyond. Think unexpected pairings, bold flavours, epic collaborations with some of the region’s best chefs, brewers, winemakers, and creatives, and the kind of experiences you’ll talk about long after the fire’s gone out.

One thing’s certain—after your days and nights of dancing, feasting, and winter revelry, you’ll want the perfect place to wind down. Luckily, our local accommodation partners have your back. Whether it’s a luxe vineyard stay or a bushland hideaway, they’ll be the cherry on top of your Cabin Fever experience.

Forest Rise Chalets and Lodge

A 240-acre private estate that provides the perfect bush oasis. Proudly accredited as an ecotourism property, it is surrounded by the soothing sounds of nature and is only a short drive away from local wineries, restaurants and stunning beaches. Choose between their 1 or 2-bedroom chalets, or book the lodge for bigger bookings – but don’t sleep on it. The perfect getaway to snuggle up and recharge after a big day of fun. 

Pullman Bunker Bay

For a luxe coastal escape, Pullman Bunker Bay delivers five-star comfort right on the white sands of Bunker Bay. Think spacious villa-style stays with private decks, deep soaking baths and all the little extras, plus an infinity pool, ocean-view dining and an award-winning day spa to round it out. It’s the kind of place where mornings start with beach walks and end with a glass of Margaret River red by the fire—equal parts indulgent and effortlessly relaxed.

Offshore Escapes

For a Cabin Fever staycation that blends comfort, style and a true sense of escape, Offshore Escapes offers a curated collection of luxury holiday homes across Margaret River. Each property is thoughtfully designed with its own personality—think architecturally designed spaces, natural surrounds and considered interiors that make it easy to settle in and switch off. Tucked between bush, beach and town, these homes put you within easy reach of Cabin Fever events while offering a peaceful retreat to come back to—perfect for long lunches, late nights and slow, cosy mornings in between.
