Fact File

What to wear?

As you will transfer from Mission Beach by boat you'll need to wade through shallow waters and assist with luggage/groceries from/to the beach, boat and is suggested that you have shoes that are easily removed, and maybe a change of clothes eg shorts. In winter the evenings can be cool so please pack some warm clothes.

What to pack?

Basically as little as possible. A few casual clothes and one pair of shoes, maybe some sandals or bring towels and linen as the house is fully stocked. Do bring some of your favourite books, magazines, hat, camera, sunscreen, toothpaste, Ipod etc. If possible do not bring lots of little bags, but a duffle style bag that is easy to manage. Consider packing a small back pack and reef shoes for outdoor exploration.

A very special place
Bedarra Island Beach House is amazing! Fabulous views, a great design and tastefully decorated. The team that look after this little gem pay a great deal of attention to the details, from the meeting at the beach on arrival to the cold bottle of Moët and fresh flowers. I would thoroughly recommend it!

Bedarra Bliss :)
This is an amazing property with everything you need for a luxury break - the house is fabulous and the island is beautiful and deserted - apart from the great wildlife - birds, Dugongs, Turtles, fish and many many butterflies! I wish we could have stayed for a month. Definitely book Bec and Jase at Mission Beach Charters for your transfer. Thanks to Shirley and Wayne for all your help getting to and from Bedarra - you made it so easy! We will be back soon :)

Sublime House & Island for a romantic getaway
We loved our time at Bedarra Beach House regardless of the wet weather during our week. The ammenities available in the house were perfect and we spent the majority of our time on the deck relaxing reading books, listening to music and looking out over the bay towards Dunk Island. The house is a total getaway place that is very well appointed and you feel like you are thousands of miles from normal everyday life. The caretaker, Shaun, made our stay very comfortable and was very helpful in regards to the house and activities we could do on the island. Thank you John & Anne for providing such a great place for couples to getaway to. We will definitely be back at some stage thank you. Best, John & Jacqui Oulton

Island of Paradise a secret revealed
From the moment Jason pointed out our place in paradise as we stepped off the boat onto Bedarra Island, we knew we had come to somewhere special. Heading up the winding path, we came to our secret hideaway for the next seven days. The Beach House is a beautiful home, set high among the tropical trees and overlooking the Coral Sea. The Beach House is very comfortable and has many wonderful features and artefacts. The design is perfect and we felt very comfortable there, reading, resting and relaxing. Without Anne and John, Bec and Jason, Shirley and Wayne, Chris, celebrating our Golden Wedding and a 70th birthday would not have had that extra bit of magic. Thank you to you all

WOW WOW WOW
This house and location are divine. The surrounds are postcard picture perfect. My husband and I just celebrated our honeymoon at this house, and we can't stop talking about it. Its a beautiful hidden little gem, and one for the bucket list. Truly felt like we had our own private island. The house is so well equipped with everything and more. You can't help but relax, unwind and enjoy the serenity! Can highly recommend and we plan to return in the future! Thank you Anne & John for opening up this little treasure and sharing your piece of paradise

Divine Destination
A beautifully maintained treetop home with everything we needed with views to Dunk from every aspect of the house. Arrived to our groceries packed away our luggage awaiting. We could start relaxing immediately. I couldnt recommend it highly enough. The house is stunning and Bedarra is breathtaking. We enjoyed snorkelling, kayaking, swimming and walking. With drinks on the deck each evening. We will be back.

One of a kind experience!
This place is truly extraordinary! Like a treehouse out of Architectural Digest and so thoughtfully appointed and decorated! We enjoyed the serenity, hiking, sea kayaking and spectacular views and breezes (sometimes quite cool). It is a special place. It far exceeded our expectations and the planning resources we got from the owners were excellent! Truly special, this place.

paradise in north queensland
Beautiful house, amazing views and has to be experienced to be believed we have this little gem on our doorstep in North Queensland. This is our 2nd visit to the Bedarra Beach House and without doubt it has to be one of the most beautiful places we have holidayed in the world. If you need to have time out from the busy day to day life routines and /or celebrate something in your life as a couple this is the place. We enjoy cooking and self catering for our "cocktail hour" so this place is great for us. There are no restaurants or distractions of the normal destination so you can just enjoy the tranquillity of the island. The first time we went we kept saying how lucky we are to have this place so close to home and we will make it an annual holiday. The house has everything you could possibly need and the support staff are amazing.

Sensational house and location!
Stayed at the great Bedarra Beach House during the 2014 Christmas period. It was with great regret that we only booked 5 nights and not longer. This place is like your own piece of private paradise that allows you the peace and tranquility to just reset everything in your life. From our morning walks, many swims, great food, fine champagne and doing nothing else but relaxing, you would not find a more stunning location. We can say that this was the most memorable holiday we have encountered. From the moment you walk through the red entry doors of the Bedarra Beach House you immediately feel a sense of being at home. The house is presented to the highest of standard and is spacious and well designed with a great deck to take in the stunning views. The house is equipped with quality appliances including a dishwasher and the gourmet kitchen has every cooking utensil imaginable. The pantry is also well stocked with a great range of products/condiments that you may have forgotten. Bec (caretaker) provided excellent service and communication from our first dealings with her. The nicely chilled welcome bottle of Moet on arrival was a nice touch and a great way to kick off the Bedarra experience. We look forward to coming back again to this private paradise and attempting to make Bedarra a regular holiday destination
