Driftwood Eco Lodge

Your Solomon home

Book private rooms or the entire house — space for seven adults and two children, with a private cook, housekeeper and laundry service included. The three rooms each have private ensuites: Ocean View and Forest View rooms have a king bed splittable into two singles, while the loft room has an ocean-view bathroom and balcony with a double bed plus a single day bed. All bathrooms are outdoor, looking over the lagoon, with Australian-standard fittings and fresh spring-fed water.

The main room holds an open kitchen, dining and lounge area with a stunning ocean view and an expansive night sky after dark — fully screened for comfort, and combining western standards with Solomon Islands character, including a wood-fired pizza oven and edible garden. The kitchen seats up to eight, with a weekly menu of Solomon Islander dishes with a modern twist — or take over the cooking yourself, with the chefs as your kitchen hands.

Your experience

Driftwood is built around village life in untouched wilderness — growing, hunting, gathering and looking out for your tribe, the basic rite of passage that keeps people connected to where their food comes from. Learn to free dive and hunt, cook your catch with fresh garden ingredients, take canoe adventures with village guides, craft something from fallen ancient timber, or hike up rapids to waterfalls.

Activities

Every adventure on offer is included free as part of a standard stay — or simply relax on the beach with a coconut. Meet the village women and learn to chop leaves and weave baskets, help make coconut commodities with traditional tools to the soundtrack of children singing, or get creative in the workshop making a souvenir from fallen ancient timber.
