While not as big as Hamilton Island, that has its benefit as being not too busy. Only need 3-4 nights to relax, try the restaurants and do the activities. Rooms are like a standard hotel room and not generous on space. Staff are super friendly and helpful. Credit to the resort for catering for gluten free people at breakfast. Living reef is awesome.

It's with disappointment that I have to rate this resort poorly, having previously having an excellent stay. I base this on dreadful customer service in response to a reasonable request for a refund following cancelation due to extreme weather

Nice place to stay on the island, the downside is lack of air conditioning. Unless you plan on spending all day in the pool or your room then probably best to avoid this place in summer. I am a born and raised north qld local. I was dripping sweat in the main build watching the Australian open on the big screen and playing pool.
