The ultimate romantic getaway in South Australia begins here – a private island retreat, where the ocean slows the hours and every detail invites connection. On the shores of Louth Island, Rumi offers couples a rare kind of retreat shaped by beauty, privacy, and the natural pace of the tides.
Salt lingers in the breeze. Waves move gently across the rocks. Warm light spills through hand-crafted interiors. Each moment invites presence. Solitude comes naturally. Whether for a special milestone or to reconnect, Rumi creates the perfect environment for something deeply personal that strengthens bonds.
This is a romantic getaway in South Australia where couples can be together in an environment that offers the feeling of uninterrupted seclusion.
Rumi on Louth is Perfect for Couples
Rumi invites couples into a world designed for togetherness. The island’s natural beauty surrounds you at every turn, from the curve of the coastline to the stillness of the inland trails. With very few guests and no interruptions, there is space to move at your own pace and reconnect in meaningful ways.
Days are shaped by shared experience. Watch the sunrise from bed. Walk barefoot along untouched shorelines. Take to the water on a private sailing charter. Share long, quiet dinners lit by the setting sun. Every detail has been considered with intimacy in mind.
The accommodation is designed to feel like a sanctuary. Soft light, warm textures, and expansive views create a setting that encourages rest and presence. This is a luxury couple’s retreat where simplicity becomes indulgent and every moment is yours to shape together.
Proposals & Honeymoons
A Setting Made for the Question That Matters Most
Some moments ask for something extraordinary. Rumi offers an unforgettable setting for life’s most intimate beginnings, whether a quiet proposal by the sea or the beginning of something new.
Imagine a sunset picnic arranged on a secluded beach, the light turning gold as you speak the words you’ve been carrying. A chilled bottle of champagne waits nearby. Wildflowers gathered from the island’s heart rest at your side. This is a place where asking the most important question feels right, supported by the stillness and beauty of the island.
Honeymoons Shaped by Stillness and Light
For honeymoons, Rumi becomes a private world shaped by calm and clarity. Wake slowly in a bed that opens to the sea. Swim in the morning light. Share long, seasonal meals. Explore trails in the late afternoon, then return to soft candlelight and open skies. Every detail is designed to create space for deep rest and shared rhythm.
Elopements & Anniversaries
Intimate Ceremonies, Held in Nature
Rumi is a place for meaningful moments. For couples seeking a small, deeply personal ceremony, the island offers a setting that is both natural and refined. Vows can be exchanged with bare feet in the sand, beside the ocean’s edge or among native grasses as the light begins to soften.
Each elopement is treated with care. There is no script to follow, only the freedom to create a moment that reflects your story. A private dinner beneath the stars, local wine shared by the fire, wildflowers gathered in the morning light. These simple gestures become lasting memories.
A Place to Celebrate the Years Between
Anniversaries at Rumi are an invitation to pause, reflect, and reconnect. Whether the first year or the fiftieth, the experience is shaped by thoughtfulness. The island lends itself to celebration without spectacle. It becomes a quiet backdrop for something far more enduring. A space to honour love that has grown, changed, and held strong.
Experiences for Two on Rumi
Rumi invites couples to slow down and experience the island together. Days unfold gently, shaped not by schedules but by shared rhythm and natural light. Every activity is an invitation to connect more deeply.
Sail at Sunset
Step aboard a private sailing charter and let the coastline drift by in golden light. With the wind at your back and champagne in hand, this is a moment made for memory.
Picnic in Seclusion
Follow a winding path to a quiet stretch of beach, where a hand-prepared picnic awaits. Seasonal produce, chilled drinks, and the sound of the tide create a setting that feels untouched.
Stargaze in Stillness
As night settles over the island, lie back beneath an open sky. With no city lights, the stars feel closer, clearer, and more profound. It is a moment of quiet wonder, shared in silence.
Explore the Island by Foot
Wander through coastal trails and native bushland, pausing to watch birdlife or collect shells. With no distractions, even the smallest details become vivid.
Private Dining, Island Style
Enjoy a dinner curated with local ingredients, served by candlelight in your own space. Each meal is a celebration of simplicity, seasonality, and presence.
Che & Natasha
“We were looking for something that felt completely ours. The island gave us that feeling. Every moment was peaceful and personal. The sunset on the night we got engaged felt like it was meant for us.”
Their time at Rumi began with a private boat arrival, wildflower arrangements waiting in their room, and evenings spent walking the coastline in silence. On their final night, a quiet proposal unfolded on a rocky outcrop as the sky turned amber and the tide whispered below. Stories like theirs speak to the beautiful atmosphere Rumi creates.
