The Esplanade Resort & Spa
Discover the best of East Gippsland with a self-contained stay at The Esplanade Resort & Spa in the heart of the Gippsland Lakes. Spacious one- and two-bedroom apartments provide plenty of room to stretch out, while homely comforts like a fully equipped kitchen and laundry facilities make for stress-free family holidays.
Days are best spent by the outdoor lagoon pool (switch to the heated indoor pool in winter!) or with a spot of friendly competition on the pickleball court. Later, unwind with a spa treatment at Illuka Massage and Beauty, or refuel with pub classics and pizzas at Espy Bar and Eatery.
The Esplanade Resort & Spa enjoys a prime location at the beginning of Lakes Entrance’s bustling Esplanade. Within a short walk, you’ll find local seafood restaurants, casual bars, surf shops and the sandy shores of the 90 Mile Beach. The hotel is located approximately a four-hour drive from Melbourne International Airport (MEL). Airport transfers are not included in your package, please plan accordingly.
