Villa Samkara is easy to find with Google Maps – simply enter 83 St Helena Road McLeods Shoot and follow the directions.

• From Gold Coast Airport: about 60 km drive (about 50 minutes).
• From Ballina Byron Gateway Airport: about 28 km drive (about 30 minutes).

When you arrive, you’ll see a large “Samkara” sign at the entrance (a photo is available in our gallery). Drive down the winding road through the gardens and you’ll find the two-storey main villa on your right.

Parking is directly in front of the villa. Additional cars can use the round parking area beside the house, or park near the large tree just across the driveway if needed.
