Thanks for your review

4 out of 5

The staff were so friendly and helpful. The island was just as lovely as it was when we went 13 years ago. The refresh is lovely, although we were a bit disappointed to find out the other end of the island is closed off. No longer an ice cream shop, and now that the cafe. Etc from the other end are closed food options are limited. The meals were very pricey, $48 for an average tasting steak. Water sports were great as was snorkelling off the island. The gift shop could do with some better stock, the gift shop at Hamilton island had a much better range. We did miss the welcome cocktails we got years ago so that should be added back in!
