Amazing stay outside the busy season. Beautiful Whitsunday surroundings and friendly staff. Main complex has been renovated well. The only two points to criticise where a slightly unloved other end of the island and an unimaginative breakfast buffet, that has lost its charm after the second day. Room for improvement here. But otherwise: we loved it

Pool area is relaxing and having the “living reef” is great to spend time at. Not much to do at night so be prepared for a quiet vacation. Staff were very nice and efficient. If you get windy weather it is very unlikely you will be able to use the aquatic equipment. Maybe that goes without saying. We had an ocean view room but couldn’t use the balcony because it was so windy. The hotel could use a really good vacuuming and room detailing. Food was hit and miss. For the price, I felt it should have been better.

Such a beautiful island. Although our stay being fairly short we found we had heaps of access to many different facilities including the gift shop, pools, restaurants/bars etc. The free complimentary buffet breakfast was much appreciated and the friendly staff made us made us feel welcomed :) many thanks, room 1313

Staff aren't friendly, no food variety. We are a group of 15 persons and faced issues in all the rooms. 1- one room had aircon problem and safe not working upon arrival ( they fixed both in 2 hours). 2- Safe not working in the second room and they couldn't fix and didn't offer to change the room. 3- Aircon stopped in my room at 23:30 ( Temperature is 28c and humidity very high), it is 2:30 am and they still couldn't fix it, they asked us to move to another room so we can sleep. My whole family couldn't get to sleep till 3:30am. As a result my kids missed the breakfast next morning and slept most of the day. Jonathan (Manager) refused to do a night refund after all this hassle and the frustration we had. NEVER to book in this resort again. I had to give one star in order to leave a review otherwise i would have given ZERO star.

Rooms. No coffee machine. Furniture outdated. No complimentary biscuits. Exhaust fan faulty. Aircon excellent. Tv installed too high on wall. Shower head is terrible and drainage for vanity and bath is very poor. Brekky Area. Staff took too long to clean spillages. Fans not turned on and with the extreme humidity not comfortabl to eat at all. Everyone was dripping with sweat. Including staff. Food was way too salty. Hash browns not fresh. Not a range of hot food available. Same menu daily. Range of Activities were excellent however equipment such as stinger suits snorkels masks were very poor condition with rips in the suits. Pools were dirty and water way too hot. Gym is excellent. Service is good with helpful and friendly staff. Would i recommend it to family members? Probably not.
