Helicopter & Chauffeur Transfers
Arrive over the harbour, not in the traffic: rooftop helipad transfers from Kingsford Smith, a fleet of chauffeured S-Class and Range Rovers, and a private marina berth for water arrivals.

Arrival, Choreographed to the Minute
The Lodge keeps a certified rooftop helipad with a seven-minute shuttle to Sydney Airport's private terminal, a chauffeured fleet of Mercedes S-Class, BMW i7s and long-wheelbase Range Rovers, and a marina berth at Barangaroo for tender arrivals from yachts at anchor.
Your flight is tracked, your luggage is walked from carousel to villa, and the driver or pilot briefs your butler en route — so check-in happens inside your villa, not at a desk. Inter-resort charters reach the Hunter Valley in 25 minutes and the Blue Mountains in 30.

Executive Traveller review
Our chauffeur knew the city, the schedule and when to say nothing at all. Faultless.
