Monapilla Escape offers plenty to see and do beyond your villa. Wander up to the Bocce Court and windmill to pick some fresh flowers or herbs to go with dinner, and collect some eggs for breakfast. Or really elevate your stay with a private helicopter experience, or for something more down to earth, jump on the complimentary E-bikes for a local cellar door visit. And if you’re really into food and wine, ask about our premium ‘paddock to plate’ lamb and wine experience.
Visit our experiences page for the full list of ways to make your stay unforgettable.

Monapilla Escape is completely off-grid. Our state-of-the-art Power Hub is located just above the windmill and powers everything with 100% green energy, from the front security gates to the reverse-cycle air-conditioning and all appliances in the kitchen.
We kindly ask you to be mindful of electricity consumption and turn off any non-essential appliances, particularly the reverse cycle air-conditioning, which uses the most amount of electricity. During the summer months, our ceiling fans and the country-fresh air make for very comfortable living, while in winter, there’s no better way to heat the room than with the genuine open fire. Please feel free to make use of the free fire-wood provided at your accommodation.
