I have stayed at the Elandra twice, since its re-opening 12 months ago. Both times I enjoyed and left relaxed. I was a little confused though when we went to dine for tea, there were children on the premises. Advertisement say adults only resort. I do not have any issue with this as I would love to bring my family next time.

Love and tranquility

Last time I stayed at The Elandra was 24 years ago, back then it was an amazing place…and it still is today! This time was to celebrate my daughter’s 21st birthday. Highly recommended especially if you are looking for a peaceful and relaxing spot. Great service, beautiful rooms and gorgeous views.

Wow! What a beautiful resort! The view is spectacular! Palm trees fluttered in the breeze and Ulysses butterflies were floating from one exotic flower to another! Enchanting. The staff, were attentive, friendly and helpful. We enjoyed talking to everyone, they helped us with ideas for things to do in the area, they pointed out wildlife on the property and shared places where we might see things. The restaurant was divine. Our dinners were imaginative and beautifully presented. Fresh ingredients absolutely delicious. Did I mention the view from our table? Honestly, this is a magical place.

This is a beautiful modern small hotel set within its own grounds with views over Mission Beach. A large pool provides opportunity to while away time and sip a drink or two. The stand out for us was the fabulous food all cooked and prepared by knowledgeable chefs. From breakfast to lite snacks and evening dinner it was all beautifully presented and was the best food we had eaten in Australia over several months of travel. A really lovely place to relax and unwind.
