InterContinental Hayman Great Barrier Reef by IHG

10/10 Excellent
"Had a fantastic trip here. Facilities were excellent, however the hotel was looking a little dirty and tired. Considering the price per night, and the extremely high prices for all the food and beverages, I would have thought this would have been a bit more up to scratch. Most of the staff were very friendly."

"Pretty plain room. It was right next to 20 plus wallabies that come out in afternoon to feed. Lots of Australian birds too! Not good for seniors that have a hard time walking."

Beach Club

Beach Club

10/10 Excellent
"Beach Club is a wonderful location for a tropical island holiday break and the staff are absolutely first rate! Nothing is too much trouble and they are so friendly and efficient. Breakfast offers a huge range of options, most of which can be modified to your liking or particular dietary needs. The room views are spectacular (idyllic), with wallabies regularly grazing on the lawns outside your room. Walks/hikes to Passage Peak and/or various other locations provide for stunning views of the Whitsundays."

8/10 Good
"qualia is one of the most beautiful properties we have visited. The setting, architecture, views, and atmosphere truly feel special and uniquely Australian. Our arrival experience was excellent. Noemi provided a warm airport pickup, smooth check-in, and a thoughtful overview of the property and room. The accommodations themselves were stunning. We also had an incredible “Best of Both Worlds” tour with Pedro, who was engaging, knowledgeable, and passionate about the island. It was one of the highlights of the trip. The main challenge during the first 24 hours was inconsistency in service attentiveness. At times, particularly at the pool and during our first dinner at Long Pavilion, service felt less proactive than expected for a property at this level. Drink refills, reservation follow-up, and simple check-ins occasionally required prompting rather than feeling naturally anticipated. What truly elevated the experience was the response from leadership. Rebecca, the General Manager, was exceptional: thoughtful, responsive, attentive, and genuinely interested in feedback. Her professionalism and accountability significantly improved the remainder of our stay. Beach Club dinner was another standout, with warm staff, relaxed pacing, and beautifully prepared food and cocktails. Overall, qualia delivers an extraordinary setting and many memorable moments. While there were some early service inconsistencies, the property’s beauty, excursions, dining, and strong leadership respon"
