9.8/10 Exceptional! (263 reviews)
Not our first visit and won’t be our last. Lovely rooms and really great restaurant at northerlies. 10 mins to Airlie, even less to all the conveniences you could need, supermarkets, chemists, pubs, etc. Staff we kind and extremely helpful. Continental breakfast is good for those that like or need to eat earlier and a bonus. Fabulous views over Airlie.

9/10 Wonderful! (4 reviews)
Our stay was just ok. The trash was still full and in the kitchen from the previous guest, there were dead roaches, there were dirty popsicle sticks by the pool. The coffee machine didn’t work either. A staff member did drop a different one by after I let them know. We also had the doorbell ring at 2am and wake everyone in the house… apparently this is common when the batteries run low? Seems like they should be routinely changed to prevent that from occurring. None of these issues are big, but combined are quite a few blunders considering we paid top dollar to stay here.

This resort is brilliant for relaxing. Only 20 adults on site at any time, which provides a great ambience and chilled vibe. The transfers are magical - we chose the helicopter in, and the boat out. The food was terrific and the accommodation very good with great views. The resort is highly recommended!

Fantastic location, with beautiful bush walks to neighbouring bays and access to reefs by tour. Only one restaurant on site but the food was delicious and decent prices for an island resort. You are in the forest so you might encounter insects and small spiders in the room. Wallabies living in and around the resort, amazing to see!
