Who We are


It all started with Australia… Established in 2012, Antipodal is the combined result of the vision and experience of Founder and CEO, Libby Cooke.

After years of working with and understanding luxury resorts, expedition cruising, African safaris, private jet trips and incentive travel, Libby sought to inspire the premium travel trade by launching Antipodal with founding client, the Luxury Lodges of Australia, representing Australia’s new breed of experiential luxury. Passionate about the depth and diversity that this landscape delivers to the discerning traveler, Australia will always be the cornerstone of Antipodal. And from there, the collection seeks to inspire with select noteworthy properties from around the world.

As an experience seeker herself, Libby has curated an intimate and exclusive portfolio of luxury hotels that deliver immersive activities and excursions as a core part of their offering.
