"We stayed for two nights in August, we were there for a Great Barrier Reef tour, so didn’t spend much time in the hotel itself or using the amenities. We got an uber from the airport, there were taxis and Ubers available quite readily. Staff were beyond helpful and friendly on arrival, a real credit to the hotel. We arrive at around 10am and the room was ready and they gave us the key, they said they upgraded us, but I couldn’t tell what the difference was? The room size maybe? We were ground floor by the pool, and people could see in the doors from their loungers. You can also hire ‘beach towels’ ($5) but I would argue the size of them was questionable for that! The room was very clean and large but felt dated. It suited what we needed it for however, but if we were there longer I think that we would have been disappointed. Very close to the beach, a selection of restaurants and a corner shop for essentials, the staff told us how to get to the shops via bus, so we got some supplies. There is a tv in the room, plus some kitchen equipment which was helpful, we only used the fridge however. I did have to move the temperature of that to cold when we arrived, as someone had it running on its highest, which was close to warm, so check that when you arrive. Would we stay again - yes, it was value for money, but only if it were for a couple of days. The hotel is well located, the beach is beautiful and the grounds seemed well maintained."

Fitzroy Island Resort

8/10 Good
"This resort was an awesome place to stay for a week of relaxation and exploration of the surrounding reef and island. There was enough to do for a six day stay. Most of the staff were very friendly and helpful (Sadie, Lucy & Ariel in particular). The resort is a bit run-down in places however and the limited food options at Foxy’s Bar get tired after a few days. But that’s a small price to pay for the beautiful surrounds and dinner at Zephyr’s was lovely. The only low spot was hearing about, and then also being subjected to, one staff member’s officious manner. It wasn’t necessary to speak to guests rudely and that doesn’t reflect well on the resort and all the good people who work there. I was told this was the general manager but it’s hard to believe a general manager would lead his staff in that manner…"

"This unit was everything that you would expect - very comfortable, spacious and had everything we needed - just as we expected from such an expensive unit. The only thing that wasn’t great was the poor access to the beach front."

Alamanda Palm Cove by Lancemore

Alamanda Palm Cove by Lancemore

10/10 Excellent
"We loved our beach-side unit Alamanda stay - view from the balcony over the lovely gardens & wedding chapel to the Coral Sea was magic. Upper level recommended (we were glad we weren't at ground level as views restricted by shrubbery & less privacy). Downside for upper level are stairs to climb - no lifts at Alamandra. Not a problem for us but would severely impact anyone with mobility issues)."

"Spent an overnight during peak tourist season. It's a nice resort, about 20 years old with some, but not excessive wear, for its age. Excellent location, excellent property layout with beach access. Room was very good. Buffet breakfast was very good. Free underground parking. My only disappointment was that I booked anticipating use of the outside spa tub but it was closed for some reason (there is a room spa tub, but too confined for me)."

"The complex is in a great location with easy access to the beach and local restaurants. Good access to highway for exploring the wider region. Ideal for families. Apartment was nice, spacious with modern appliances, comfortable lounge area and balcony, bathrooms were a little tired but had been recently decorated. Complex is well maintained with nice garden areas and pool, secure underground parking with easy access was good"
