Absolutely beautiful location. Staff were friendly and helpful, but there were hardly any around (maybe because it was low season). Check in took far too long, predictable as every time a boat arrives it overwhelmed the 1-2 staff max on the desk. The resort looks a bit cyclone battered - many rusted fixtures and some exterior repairs needed

This is the second year in a row my wife and I have been to Fitzroy Island for a winter getaway. We loved it last year and again this.

Evening and day staff very helpful but as there wasn’t a phone in room you had to go to reception for everything. Didn’t bother with breakfast. National parks were very good. Will just do a day trip next time unless with family.

I hate writing negative reviews but The property is in serious need of a full remodel; everything is dirty and or broken the pullout bed is the worst kind weve experienced and our toddler wasn't even able to utilise it and even structural supports show severe signs of degradation along the walkway. The snorkelling and walks are great but yourself a favour and do a day trip and stay in Cairns.

Island was great . Staff were excellent . Our beachfront cabin had a problem with a shower door that was so badly hung that it was a squeeze to get into and out of. We reported the issue but nothing could be done for our stay ….the solution being to dismantle and renovate the shower . Staff said they would remove the cabin from letting until the shower was fixed .
