The island itself was good, but the management doesn't really care about it. There was not tennis court or at least what was left of it - it was falling apart with no even a net in it. Half of the resort is closed so you can only stay on one half. Only one restaurant operating with one open one day yes and the other not. Breakfast was pretty low the bread toaster looked liked it hasn't been cleaned in a year. The room was ok, the were spider all over this including inside the lamp next to the bed, termite all over the desk and coffee table. The staff sometimes couldn't care about you and they were left to themselves to run the whole island.

Booked a room with ferry transfers. Didn’t receive any information about ferry tickets before check in. I tried calling 2 different phone numbers for the resort over 10 times aswell as wotif who also couldn’t get through. Arrived at port Airlie whitsunday cruises they told us the resort hasn’t given them any information and to just book pay and then show the hotel the receipt and they will refund me the money. Ended up paying $170 for 2 return tickets got over to the resort all for the front desk to say no we only give you a return ticket you won’t get your money back. I mentioned multiple times how I tried contacting them and couldn’t get through no compensation whatsoever. Besides that loved the resort itself.

Lovely place. Not enough to do. Half the island was closed. Pool at the "closed" end of the island needs a good paint. Only has 1 restaurant option for lunch. Then going back to the same restaurant for dinner with only 1 other option. An option to order a light lunch or snack at the pool would have been nice.

Overall, we had a pleasant stay. The staff were lovely and very polite and friendly. However, there didn’t seem to be enough staff at the bars/resturants, which meant that service, on occasion, was delayed. It was a shame to see the far end of the island shut down, but it was obvious that a lot of development has taken place around the main complex. We particularly enjoyed the living reef.
