Hotel desperately need an update on all amenities. The rooms are dated and old. Everything is just a bit run down. The pool bar is screaming for help. I went to order a drink and took one look at the ice machine and said no mould to that mould infestation. The staff look and act as unmotivated as the dated amenities. The only real cafe serves C grade deep fried food. It’s incredibly disappointing. The hotel is nice enough to create a relaxing vibe and the location is a 10! Right on the water. So nice waking up to the sound of the ocean. But yeh overall that hotel is a 3 star at most.

I didn’t like the fact that the room had not been adequately cleaned as there was a fat cockroach who appeared out of the tea and coffee box on my arrival and by the fact that it had a lot of droppings in there, I think it had been in there for awhile. The mattress on the twin beds sagged and was uncomfortable.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities

I didn't like that their email said no need line up in queue if you checkin online, because it's untrue and I still had to queue up as they wanted to re-check all the details and it was worse because others hadn't checked in online so their process took longer. The receptionist was obviously not aware of this email and instead of apologizing, was justifying. I was told that we can use all resort facilities after check out until the boat arrives but they refused to give any more than one towel if you went for a swim, and were making it seem like it's a favour? I am not going to use the sea salt drenched towel for after shower drying, it's pretty common sense. I have never seen any hotel, resort or even hostels refuse their guests of towels. It was bizarre. The staff was being unnecessarily uptight and unhelpful for no good reason I felt. The common shower facility in the building was extremely dirty and unsantinary. Hair and mud everywhere on the floor. That cannot be resort experience. Very yuck. Nothing to do in the resort in the evening. Everything shuts down by 7pm. There was also no intercom to call the reception, in my room. The only helpful staff there was the equipment hire people, guided really well. All in all, I do not recommend the resort at all. I would suggest a day trip is better instead.

Was in the Welcome Bay suite for 6 days. We needed to keep asking to replenish items toilet paper, tissues etc considering the length of our stay these items should already be available in our room. Also Need somewhere to put your soap shampoo in the shower other than on the floor. A rack?? Otherwise everything else was great Staff were friendly and helpful Dive shop staff were also fantastic and very helpful especially Keira as well as all the other girls

The staff are great, the breakfast was enjoyable especially the view each morning sitting out on the terrace. The snorkeling was good too, definitely better done at high tide to avoid walking on and destroying coral. For the price we were impressed, yes some areas need attention but you can see it is being updated. Special mention for staff Tom, Leonie, and Carys they were so friendly and helpful but all the staff were great. Would definitely return to Fitzroy Island next time we are in Cairns.
