escape to luxury

Hobart is the perfect base for exploring southern Tasmania and an ideal weekend getaway for singles, couples and families.

Today we celebrate alluxia’s 3^rd Birthday, hooray! It’s been an amazing adventure, and while it might appear to be all glamorous jetsetting, there’s a lot of geeky work behind the scene to bring you our website of luxury escapes. 

We’re regular visitors to the Hunter Valley, with just so much to love about Australia’s oldest and most historic wine region.  It’s deceiving how large the Hunter Valley is and you don’t want to waste precious wine tasting time by crisscrossing the valley so it’s best to plan ahead.

This week, we quietly celebrated three years since alluxia.com went live. We celebrated with our nearest and dearest with a glass or two of French Champagne & reflected on how quickly three years has flown by. Our goals for the year ahead include growing the alluxia collection and adding more destinations while remaining truly Australian.

Winter is HERE! In an ultra cool week that even brought snow to Queensland, we are in little doubt that we are in the depths of winter in Australia.

This Friday, we think the weekend drink of choice should be mulled wine - that warming drink that tastes like Christmas in a glass! If you’re a wine lover, this wintery spin of spiced mulled wine is warm, flavourful and oh so comforting.
