Southern Great Barrier Reef Adults Only Holidays

Awsome place to relax and unwind from daily pressures, my third time and always enjoy coming back to this unique spot

Booked an ocean view room. Got a ground floor garden room which was a nice apartment. Remote didn’t work in bedroom for TV. Had to use wifi in the lounge room for the TV cause the aerial didn’t work. Everything was clean. Designated parking was good. Front door was hard to close.

To say this stay was phenomenal would be an understatement! We weren’t sure exactly what to expect on the island before we arrived but we were pleasantly surprised by everything. Travel was very easy on the ferry with a prearranged ticket and a person to greet us on Heron Island. We were then picked up on the beach on Heron Island, where we had a fun 20 minute boat ride to Wilson. We were there during sea turtle mating season, so sunrise, evening, and night were amazing with the amount of turtles we were able to enjoy. The accommodations were wonderful with one of the most comfortable beds we have ever slept in. The tent was very comfortable with a nice breeze from the ocean at night so we were never too hot or cold. The food was absolutely amazing to the point my wife has continued to say how much she misses Nick even after returning home. T-bone steak for dinner, duck for lunch, a beautifully presented plate of scallops for a sunset appetizer, just to name a few of the amazing dishes. Nick even prepared a spread of DIY Vegemite, bread and butter for us since we were jet lagged and waking up well before breakfast. It took us over 36 hours of travel to get there and we would immediately get on a flight to return if we could, even if just for a couple more days of paradise.

Great house, but no ability to make coffee. No beach towels or beach chairs, despite a beach right there. No instructions for anything in or around the house. There was a pool in the large complex that we never could find. How to get to the beach was a mystery we solved, but with no help. House was otherwise nice & well-equipped; managers no help with anything.

Great spot. We’d stay again.

Firstly, this place is not a motel. Slightly upmarket youth hostel possibly but not a motel. It is nothing like expected or promoted. Our room was exceptionally small. One chair, tiny table and no wardrobe or cupboard. To be fair the queen bed was very comfortable and the room was clean. The free breakfast was basic but nice. It was great to be able to chat to other travellers. The pool and outdoor area were neat and tidy. While we were there, two groups left early (no refund). The room's information folder mentions "No refunds" regularly. Do not stay here.

Beautiful apartment, very clean and comfortable. The pool is amazing, one of the best I've seen. Close to shops. Easy drive to Great Keppell Island Ferry Depot and Capricorn Caves.
