The cabin was roomy. It is quaint and a bit rustic but plenty of hot water.

Reef and beaches great, saw baby turtles coming out, good snorkelling at high tide, excellent service in getting us and many others back to mainland via helicopter at no extra cost when too rough for boat transfer

Heron Island was an amazing experience! I was there in mid- January. Turtles: Walking the beach, you are sure to get lucky a few times and see turtle hatchlings. I woke up at 4:45 a.m. every morning to walk the beach and see the mama turtles go back into the ocean. I stayed out for 2-3 hours. I saw about 15 each morning. I even saw some finishing with their nests.(The turtles comes up at night, but it's too dark to see them. You are not supposed to use flashlights because the light could cause the turtle to go back into water. Please respect the turtles and the rules.) Guided Walks/Talks: We took the free Turtle Walk and Reef Walk led by a marine biologist. We learned a lot, and it made for a better experience on the island. Sea life: Sharks, Rays, turtles, sea stars, and more! Although, I did not see many fish when I snorkeled off the island and on the snorkel boat trip.

The spa was most excellent, totally relaxing with great staff. The dive shop was just where it needed to be and did everything. The dive boat team took care to listen to our requests. The guides were wonderful and happy to help, very engaging.

The educational opportunities were fantastic. While we were there they had Guided Reef walks each morning, A Marine Biologist spoke about humpback whales in the evening every other night (all free) and we also paid $10 to join a guided tour of the research facilities on the island. There were other free educational activities, but these were the ones i can remember. As for the reef walks, I was shocked when i first read this term, but you actually walk around the coral on the sandy portions at low tide and a marine biologist tells you all about the coral and other life, so it isn't as damaging as it sounds. They do say that there is still impact on the reef (especially when people aren't as careful as they should be), but they continue the reef walks because of the educational opportunity and the hope that the education people will receive will encourage them to engage in conservation efforts.

Beautiful location. The rooms were comfortable and clean, however the main attraction is the wildlife that surrounds the resort. Even during our short stay, which was disrupted by a storm, we still were able to see some glimpses of the stunning coral reef ecosystem just off the beach. We want to come back!

Katherine, United States of America

Price of the hotel is fairly cheap. The location is amazing. The ocean and the reef is beautiful. Over all a very pleasant island for a short stay.
