Jul 29, 2020
There has never been a better time to travel in Queensland or take a break from the daily grind to reconnect and spend time with your loved ones in a tropical setting. Here are our top 5 reasons to visit this spectacular Queensland Island.
  1. The accommodation is absolute beachfront
The Beachfront Villas open up directly onto the white sand beaches of your Whitsunday Island home away from home.

The beachfront bure (pronounced Boo-ray) also offers direct beach access close to the waters edge as well as a larger room. You’ll enjoy a private deck with hammock.
While the serenity bure is inspired by Balinese culture and has glimpses of ocean views while nestled in luscious rainforest. Your private deck boasts its own hammock for you to soak up your tropical surrounds and time with your loved one.

The ocean view bure is the only one of it’s kind with a wrap around deck boasting views of the northern side of Palm Bay and the privacy of being at the highest spot – perfect for intimate getaways.

Each of the rooms feature a queen bed, dining table, chair and ottoman, air con, ensuite, and bar fridge and kettle.
