Nothing captures the beauty of this great southern land than the verses of Dorothy McKellar’s famous poem, My Country. Think of Australia and the most iconic images come to mind, from the incredible marine life of the Great Barrier Reef, the iconic sails of the Sydney Opera House, the fiery red of the famous sandstone in the heart of the continent known as Uluru, to the vast reaches of the Kimberley in Western Australia and the 180-million-year-old Daintree Rainforest in Queensland. A country that boasts over 60,000 kilometres of sun-soaked coastline and spectacular white sandy beaches, the Great Australian Bight and the Twelve Apostles. Australia captures the hearts and dreams of people all over the world with its dazzling fireworks erupting over Sydney Harbour and Bridge launching us into another new year. However, despite dogs being the most popular pets, with just over 5 million dogs across the nation, Australia is slowly becoming more pet friendly when it comes to travelling with your pup, especially when it comes to luxury hotel accommodation. Rest assured, in this “all or nothing culture”, your dogs will be totally pampered and very welcome in some of the finest luxury hotels in the country.
