Family friendly Hotels in Whitsundays, Queensland

"The view was wonderful and the staff were helpful and friendly. We didn’t use the kitchen much but it was well stocked with essentials for meals, if you choose to eat in. The apartment was a good size but we found the furnishings to be very uncomfortable. Both hubby and I struggled to sleep well, the bed was far too firm for our liking. The sofa mattresses were no more comfortable. This is a good facility if you like very firm sleeping and for a family environment. The pool and hot tub were lovely but constantly overrun with children jumping from the rocks, which made it impossible to enjoy. I do not recommend this location for a couples holiday… we planned our trip specifically to avoid the school break atmosphere, as we longed for relaxation. This was not the place for that. We spent most of our time on Catseye Beach and down at the marina, as the pool just wasn’t an option. Highly recommend the Beach Club for an exquisite dinner and Manta Ray for fantastic marina lunch."

"Breakfast was mediocre considering the price adder. Had to find utensils and napkins and lucky to have a salt and pepper shaker. Food presentation was sloppy. "

"Food was great could do with the ability to rent a small boat to see more around the island. Unfortunately for us had a super soft bed. A shame properties don’t tell you the types of beds they have. "

"Not a lot of help!!!! I left a few items behind in the room set message no reply.. No long mirror in the room no fly screens which you couldn't open the door . Would we stay again no"

"The buffet was amazing with all the variety of dishes. The bungalow was spacious and in a great location however we were awoken numerous times at night by some Bush Stone-curlews screaming! I was not familiar with these birds that sound like a woman screaming until I heard them. Outside our bungalow we had a nice view of some wallabies and birds. I can’t wait to return to Hamilton Island however I would plan to stay in the Reef hotel where hopefully it would be a bit quieter from the screaming birds:)"

"Fabulous 4 night trip to Hayman. Just the most beautiful scenery and grounds and a very friendly staff. We enjoyed the excursions snorkeling and seeing Whitehaven Beach. We initially had a lagoon room which we didn’t love so we upgraded to a second floor room overlooking the pool. They were very accommodating. Used the gym and ate at all the restaurants. We also enjoyed the great acoustic guitar player each night. "

"Fantastic all around. "
