Island beachside accommodation
It was everything I expected. Staff were helpful and knowledgeable. Even managed to find a relative of nemo. Although they said WiFi was only available in common areas I did manage to get a bit in my room. They also provided a clothes airer for swimwear.
Shani, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

One bedroom with attached dungeon.
The "two bedroom suite" was a beautiful one bedroom suite with an adjacent (but securely connected) dungeon that faced a walkway. You could not open the curtains without full exposure to all. Ok to put the kids to sleep in, but that's it. Don't go there with another couple. Also should mention the way overpriced Zephyr restaurant. Save your money and get a burger at Foxy's. Having said all that, and knowing what I know now, I'd still go back. Lots of great people in a beautiful setting. Oh, andca shout out to the glass bottom boat tour guide with the big eyebrows.

10/10 Exceptional

Everything was well managed. The snorkelling was great with a good variety of fish and corals. We were able to swim with the turtles too. I am 77 and had no problem with any aspect of this experience. We also went to Green Island and I preferred Fitzroy.

A beautiful island with ability to snorkel straight off the beach plus you can watch the whales passing by. Loved seeing all the turtles and fish on the coral.

Fitzroy. Don't bother
An hour here is too much. Beaches: disappointing. Resort: run down and tired. Public areas: dirty. Staff: indifferent and robotic bordering on useless Food: as bad as the place itself
Stephen, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The studios need renovation. Smells of humidity. Need more food options for lunch/dinner
Elizabeth, 3-night trip

4/10 Fair

Love the location and who wouldn’t? The place is very run down and not worthy of an overnight stay. Day trip for the location experience is a must! Also very noisy rooms if staying below one of the three floors as the floors are wooden beamed not concrete.
Joseph, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Loved the location. The rooms were okay not resort level more budget level, needed an update. Staff friendly especially at the fish hub.Jenna was awesome on the kayak tour. The general store was a huge disappointment, very low stock , looked and felt depressing and as expected expensive. Great environment and staff but the resort needs some TLC

James, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

We had a nice stay, the location is great. Id like to see more staff in the bar areas, We stayed in 2020 and the food choicea and cocktails were far superior than 2024. Id think thats cocktails would be the big selling point and what many people do when holidaying.

Beautiful island getaway, nudey beach is epic
Aaron, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Lovely island and snorkelling especially to the left of the bar/food area. Limited selection of menu options in bar. Must walk round to nudey beach. Guided snorkel trip - saw more from the shore. Snorkelling guide insisted you jump off side of boat into sea, not suitable for novice or new snorkellers. Should be allowed to use steps going down slowly and back wards. Would not recommend. You are not supposed to take alchohol onto island yet we were on holiday and the bar was closing at 8pm and restaurant bar 8.30 - very disappointing. Island shop a joke - not very good selection only muffins, sausage rolls, crisps, ice cream, refreshments, good range of fresh sandwiches though. As many nic naks as food items. We left the island a night early because we wanted to go on a snorkelling outer reef tour.
Carol, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The Staff in Zephyr Restaurant were absolutely brilliant & the food was superb. The Bathroom was not clean & a bit of elbow grease wouldn’t go astray. Room itself was comfortable & quiet.
Ann, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Lack of food options, we respected their rules of not bringing our own food/snacks and consequently regretted it, the general store had very little stock, breakfast and dinner -good menu but food barely warm, paid $30 surcharge for Sunday night restaurant dinner it was very nice food but served almost cold, couldn’t get a decent coffee all long life milk don’t understand this when the ferry is going back and forth at l ast two-three times a day
