Overview

When you simply don't wish to be found, when you need to escape, unwind and experience the finer things in life, there is no better place to disappear to than this island; an exclusive tropical private hideaway, lying off the coast of Cairns. On the island, guests can do as they wish, when they wish. A maximum of just 32 guests are accommodated in 16 secluded villas, hidden in the rainforest, only minutes from the beach. Superbly appointed, each villa has a separate living area, contemporary bathroom and king size bed. On the balcony, guests can relax in a hammock and contemplate the beauty and calm of this elegant retreat. The cuisine is exquisite; sample local delicacies on the open-air terrace restaurant, with a freshly prepared menu every day. A popular lunch option is a romantic beach picnic with a gourmet hamper. While the focus is on peace and relaxation, there are also many activities to enjoy, such as paddle-skiing, fishing, snorkeling and diving day trips to the Great Barrier Reef, as well as motorized dinghies for exploring the island's picturesque, private beaches. Feel like more indulgence? Enjoy a relaxing therapeutic massage in the privacy of your villa.
