Krisandanthony, Australia

The property was absolutely beautiful! It’s definitely an upscale resort! It had everything you would want,..including tours and adventures!

Etoy, United States of America

The room was big and the staff was friendly and helpful in all areas. Breakfast at the resort was awesome. We did not have a chance to see/use other facilities in the resort due to our travel itinerary. The ferry point is also near.

Edwin, Singapore

Superior service from their friendly staff! The room was clean, the tours were great, and it was very nice to walk around the property. It's a comfortable and convenient way to experience Fraser Island.

Phill, Australia

Location is very well integrated into the surrounding landscape and nature and rooms are facing an interesting feature. The fenced area is safe and provided a lot to look at and walking opportunities. I felt at ease and relaxed while immersing myself in the nature.

All the staff were very friendly. Facilities are lovely and we really enjoyed the outlook from our Bay View Room.

“Could've been better ”
- • Leisure trip

- • Stayed 3 nights
- • Submitted from a mobile device
Villa was not as clean as it should've been. Dirty dishes left in dishwasher, dust hanging from ceiling fan and beer bottle caps found from previous occupants. Only 1 handtowel provided for 4 adults over 3 days/nights (although I'm sure we could've asked for another) Breakfast was lovely but hugely overpriced as was the fuel from petrol station which was at almost 80 cents per litre more than the mainland...monopoly and greed rules! Fair price for customers not so much even taking into account more expensive transport costs. There are surcharges right, left and centre so can be very expensive. Pool table and air hockey were in poor condition. There also seemed to be a lot of unsupervised kids when we went (I appreciate this is not under the control of the resort) so not the place to be if you are looking for peace and quiet in the communal areas...esp spa! Overall we had a nice stay but not up to the standard I expected from a 4 star resort.
Beds and linen were clean which is important. Staff were very polite and friendly. Sunset bar was fabulous and in a beautiful location. Food was lovely and if not going for breakfast, was reasonably priced.

The younger Ranger that worked on Monday night was rude to our kids. The kids came back and said he had anger management issues... The entire resort needs a reno, the lighting in our friends and our apartment was dark and odd (placed in random locations) with little output.
The beaches, pools and facilities. The black out curtains.

When bookings the room it is not good to place a mature couple next door to large family with babies. We wanted a relaxin wkend! Please give consideration when allocate rooms. Tealights on the dinner tables may give a little relaxin ambiance & again do not Place a mature couple near big family it does not make a relaxin evening meal. Suggest family time for dinner meals, so limit the crying babies. Consider all generations we have had our family & are grandparents seeking a peace at times.
