Exhilarating view of nature.
Pros:

Friendly and helpful staff always very helpful. Had a wonderful experience on the island even though the weather was cloudy. Moko one of the beach front attendants give me a helpful run down of the reef and we were able to snorkel with sting suits at low tide. We saw some turtles and a sting ray. More than happy 😊

Great hotel with fantastic views! Highly recommend!
Pros:

Loved the room, it was huge, and the facilities at the hotel and Hamilton island in general. We didn’t stay long enough to get best use of the facilities but couldn’t actually afford to stay any longer it was so expensive. But lovely hotel and the staff were so nice and helpful. Highly recommend!

Cons:

Very expensive but everything in Hamilton island is expensive so it’s probably not that bad in comparison to the other accommodation options.

Pros:

The location, view and staff were really good. However, the hotel could improve so much if they just focus on little things like cleaning the room properly, the common areas were also dirty and the furniture are really outdated. Wouldn’t recommend the hotel again tbh
