The resort has everything you need without feeling too much like a resort. Dinner at foxys and zephyr were great and staff were friendly and helpful. Excellent for a short break from cairns. Snorkelling from the beach was a highlight. Recommend bringing some food over for a picnic though

Great stay for a couple of days, accommodation needs some updating (parts of the room were falling apart ie. broken tiles, sharp grout and dripping aircon). Some staff were amazing and some were very abrupt and unhelpful. The guided kayak tour was great, Sara was super lovely and just a really relaxing way to hang out on the way. Pool area is small and limited seating but drinks at the pool were great. Foxy’s has ok food but prices are pretty high, live music on a Saturday night is a good vibe. Overall a good short stay if you’re looking to just relax, snorkel and get away from winter.

This was quite of a surprise how nice this place is. The island is beautiful, end even though it’s a small resort you can still keep your self busy for 2-3 days. We enjoyed so much a couple of afternoon at the Frotzy Bar, having some drinks and enjoying the view/sunset. It’s nothing fun y but more than enough to relax and enjoy. The restauran was also amazing, good quality and great test. We got to meet one of the chef, a very your passionate cook!

This place is a very casual, family friendly place to stay and explore, staff are very welcoming and love teaching the kids about the reef, And the surrounds, excellent hike up to the summit of the island, "7 and 10 year old got up" albeit, pack some water. Had a great stay and explored the island over 3 days and loved the experience.... Definitely coming back!

Liked: Cleanliness
Nice, isolated island resort which is a 45-minute ferry ride from Cairns. Had originally planned on staying three nights but changed to two prior to booking. The resort is an older property which, while clean and maintained, shows its age with some needed maintenance to return to (what I'm sure was) it's former island oasis status. The access to snorkeling and the great vigorous and scenic 4 km hike were the highlights of the resort. On the other, hand, the isolation and lack of alternative restaurants, made my decision to stay only two nights a good one. I was fortunate to have a spectacular sunset on my final evening. Overall, the resort, with the view from my room, the snorkeling access and invigorating hike with incredible views, was well worth a visit.

Nudey Beach was great. Everything else not so much. 3pm check in, boat got in at 2:30. Room wasn’t available until 4pm. When we arrived to our room it was still dirty. Tried to push free drink cards to make up for the mess. The beds- terribly uncomfortable. The grounds around the resort smelled like sewage. Thought we would splurge and book a nice stay after staying in hostels. I’d take the hostel over this resort. The beach was great but you could do it all in a day without having to stay at this “resort.”

The experience was fine - definitely not the most hospitable experience, but it had the basics. I suppose the accommodation was inexpensive so you’re paying for what you’re getting. The island itself is beautiful and is worth visiting, especially to swim, snorkel, and hike.

The property was remote and beautiful. It is a small, unpopulated tropical island that is a national park. There were very little food options at the two restaurants and no option to buy snacks or food. It was interesting that there was a full kitchen in the suite but no where to buy food to cook.
