Elektra is a retreat conceived for those who believe that indulgence and intimacy are not mutually exclusive. Generous in scale yet deeply personal in feel, it is equally at home hosting two couples seeking a shared escape or a single couple who simply wish to live — for a time — without compromise.
Two beautifully appointed bedrooms and two bathrooms speak to a standard of finish that leaves nothing unconsidered. Underfloor heating, fine linen bedding, and thick robes and slippers ensure that comfort here is felt as much as seen. The open living and dining space is anchored by a statement fireplace, while the fully appointed kitchenette means every meal can be an occasion.
Step outside and the north-facing deck reveals its gift — wide, uninterrupted views across the Macedon Ranges, perfectly oriented to catch the last light of the day. As the sun descends behind the ranges, the hot tub awaits: a moment of pure, unhurried pleasure at the end of a perfect day.
At Elektra, there is nothing to do but be exactly where you are.

Chiara is a retreat built for two — and two alone. An intimate sanctuary where the outside world softens and disappears, leaving only the view, the fire, and the unhurried pleasure of each other’s company.
Natural timbers and soaring ceilings create a space that feels both expansive and enveloping, while floor-to-ceiling glass frames an uninterrupted panorama across the Macedon Ranges — oriented west to capture the full drama of the evening sky. As the sun descends, the ranges blush gold and the day’s last light plays across every surface.
The king bedroom is dressed with the finest linen — soft bedding, layered cushions and coverlets that invite you to linger long into the morning. The bathroom is a quiet work of art: a circular moonlit shower, underfloor heating, and surfaces of stone and timber that feel cool, considered, and entirely of this place.
The living, dining and kitchenette space wraps around you like a warm embrace. Pour a martini. Settle by the fireplace. Watch the sun slip behind the ranges from your private deck.
Some weekends are good. Chiara makes them unforgettable.

The Mount Monument story is still unfolding.
Siska and Ondine — two further intimate retreats, each a private world for two — are currently being completed and will be welcoming guests soon. Like Chiara, each offers one bedroom, one bathroom, and the same uncompromising standard of design and finish that defines every retreat at Mount Monument.
Details and availability will be released shortly. Join our mailing list below to be among the first to know.
Mount Monument is more than where you sleep — it is an entire estate to lose yourself in. Spread across the slopes of the mountain, the property brings together a celebrated winery and restaurant, an extraordinary sculpture park, and your private retreat, all within easy reach of one another and all set against some of the most breathtaking scenery in the region.
Arrive for a long lunch. Wander among sculptures as the light changes. Return to your retreat as the day quietens. This is what a true escape looks like.
Estate wines and seasonal dining, perched high with panoramic sweeping views.
An ever-evolving collection of works set freely across the landscape — yours to explore at any hour.
Designed by Nonda Katsalidis — intimate, luxurious, and oriented entirely toward the view.
We deliver a curated selection of locally sourced produce to your retreat, to be savoured at your own pace whilst drinking in the magnificent mountain views.
We can arrange to have your retreat stocked with a thoughtfully curated selection of provisions: local wines, artisan spirits, and a pantry of carefully chosen produce to sustain you between moments of stillness.
As a retreat guest, the full property is yours to explore. Stroll the Sculpture Park at dawn, lunch at the Winery Restaurant on Friday, Saturday or Sunday, dine there on Friday evenings, unwind and discover at your own pace.
Step outside and into the Australian bushland. Private trails wind through the surrounding landscape, offering quiet paths for morning walks, golden-hour wanders, or simply the pleasure of being among trees and sky.
Available with our Elektra Retreat. Your private hot tub is filled with fresh rainwater, prepared and heated to the perfect temperature — chemical-free, just for your stay. Perfect to enjoy the sunset from or see the stars after dark, beneath an open sky.
Every detail of the retreat has been conceived with intention. Luxuriously appointed interiors open to sweeping vistas, blurring the boundary between inside and out, between refuge and landscape.
We gently invite guests to set screens aside and be fully present. With scenery like this, it’s rarely a hard ask.
Every stay at Mount Monument includes access to your dedicated Retreat Curator — a discreet and knowledgeable point of contact who can arrange the extraordinary. Whether it’s a private chef dinner on the deck, best suggestions for a dawn hike, a surprise celebration, or something entirely your own, your Curator is here to make it happen. Simply ask.
Situated on the same estate as your retreat, the Mount Monument Winery & Restaurant offers an exceptional dining experience shaped by place — the wines grown on these slopes, the produce sourced from this region, and the kind of unhurried hospitality that only a country setting can inspire.
Whether you’re settling in for a long, languorous lunch or gathering for a Friday evening over good wine or cocktail and better conversation, every meal here is a reason to linger.
Pull up a stool at the Cellar Door and let our team pour you something worth savouring. Estate wines, seasonal cocktails, and views that do most of the talking.
Can’t bear to leave? Have a bottle of Mount Monument wine delivered directly to your retreat — the perfect companion for a sunset on the deck.

Wander freely through one of the region’s most striking outdoor collections. The Mount Monument Sculpture Park is woven into the natural landscape of the estate — works emerging from hillsides, framed by sky, discovered along quiet paths between the olive grove.
There is no map, no prescribed route, no right way to experience it. Only the pleasure of moving through space, pausing when something stops you, and looking up to find the view has followed you everywhere.
Complimentary access for all retreat guests, at any time during your stay.
All rates include a continental breakfast basket of locally sourced produce, to enjoy in your retreat.
Minimum stay of two nights. Stays available from Thursday through to and including Monday night. Ideal for couples, close friends, or anyone in need of genuine rest.
