Hotels near Pelican Island

"Beautiful view from the balcony, nice staff keeping the room clean and tidy, can’t wait to get back "

"I stayed with friends and we loved the view from the room and how spacious it was. The only area for improvement would be that the beds had a slight damp smell. On the other hand, the buffet breakfast definitely deserves all the credit, it was amazing, with fresh options and something for everyone. It was our favorite part of the stay. Thank you, Reef View, for a great experience!"

"Disappointed.Our 3rd stay in 6 years-it’s a beautiful location to stay, but we probably won’t be back to this resort as it is no longer being maintained or managed & appears to be run by backpackers.The resort itself: had glass pool gate removed, shingles on pavilions broken or missing, holes in their ceilings, roof edges missing, exposed electrical wires on paths, broken or missing pavers & mouldy sun loungers around the pool, broken chairs discarded in the bushes & the tennis court was unusable & covered with garden debris. Our beach bungalow: the internal privacy door was gone, sliding door badly needed oiling & the handle was filthy, the bathroom had cockroaches, the door was badly water damaged & window ledges had splinters with paint coming off. Shower screen had massive lime scale build up. The kitchenette no longer had any tea towels, detergent, cleaning cloths,had missing & mismatched crockery/ cutlery, but now you’re meant to use the restaurant exclusively for food.The hammock was unusable. It was wet when we arrived, so we waited for it to dry, but it was so musty, the smell clung to your skin. We asked for it to be swapped with one from an empty bungalow, the pleasant but under resourced staff member gave an automatic no- the go to answer when you have no manager. Beware that you are now expected to stay overnight at Airlie Beach, because the reception closes at 5.30pm, as the resort & the water taxi DON’T coordinate with the few daily flights into Proserpine.

"Very friendly and helpful staff. Excellent breakfast and restaurants available on property. Lots of pools and vast beach to swim in. Free hotel transfers and shuttles available."

"The resort is a great place to relax, amazing food and drinks. Staff need more attention to detail when asked a question. Overall rating 8 out of 10"

"Lovely staff, delicious food, gorgeous pool, wonderful yoga and massages! A special place far from the madding crowd. If it’s relaxation you’re after this is the place to go. Just be aware, before you book, the transfers (via boat or helicopter) are extremely expensive! The only other negative is the communal areas could do with an update & soft furnishings (chair pads/cushions etc) need a clean. "

"Beautiful views. Priceless"

"Beautiful views & friendly, helpful owner."

"Property staff were great, don't rely on expedia comms - communicate directly with property once you've booked. Beautiful spot! "
