A wonderful stay at the property. The staff was excellent. Shout out to Chase, Sarah, and Tommy. They worked non-stop to make sure our guest experience was perfect. The meals were excellent but with the heat, it would have been nice to have some lighter dining options.

Amazing location and beautiful bungalows overlooking pristine beach and bay. 5 day stay and loved it… so relaxing and part of nature. Only thing to change… music playlists as after a day they repeat (although staff happy to change at my request- thanks Tommy and Chase).
Very friendly cockatoos, love nuts!

Great location, adults only. Manager Kate and her staff all went out of their way to assist whenever required. Only negative is that the meal selection is a' la carte for all meals and they don't vary the menu so a bit limiting. Suggest you take a few snacks.

If need to just rest & take your loved one away for the weekend or a few days. Do yourself a favour book this place & catch a well deserved break. If swimming , walking, working on ur tan & catching up on sleep is your thing then look no further for a perfect island retreat. Staff were very friendly & helpful. My wife needed a good rest & she loved it. It’s Quite, food is good & reasonably priced & very low key. Would definitely return here for a relaxing break! Cheers Michael Nov 2023

An idyllic escape for a few days. The resort is beautiful, simple and quiet and amazing location. There are so many animals which was a bonus - I saw shovelnosed rays, sting rays, a turtle, wallabies and of course the very forward cockatoos which patrol the resort! The staff were lovely and it is a great place sleep, read in the hammock, swim, snorkel, go for short hikes and enjoy cocktails by the pool.
