Any island in norther Australia is going to be expensive as all equipment and consumables come by barge. This accommodation was still very good value for money. We had the warer view room with the wrap around balcony. It felt very private, yet close to the pool. The extensive continental breakfast was provided in the room and topped up daily. Yum. There is an air-conditioner as well as a fan. There was a really long desk in the room that could be used for work, eating or suitcases. A new extra large tv for entertainment. We really liked the restaurant meals - very large and filling with variety.

Room was clean and staff were friendly and helpful. Good transportation options, although if coming in from Tuesday Island by ferry it would be easy to walk to the hotel assuming that you didn’t have a lot of bags. Pub and restaurant onsite for lunch and dinner, food was excellent.

The hotel is adequate but I thought very expensive for what it was compared to other remote locations. The room I had was a superior king suite so I was expecting more. The room was very dated and the old air conditioner very noisy. For a self rated 4 star property I would have expected at least a hairdryer as they did have a pool but noway to dry long thick hair. The most annoying thing was the room was very hot and only one fixed key which you needed to turn the a/c on. When I went for a meal and removed the key and came back and the room was stifling hot again. The hotel adjacent had nice pub food.
