AVOID THIS PLACE. DO not waste your time or money going here. The resort is dead. There were only 2 other couples when we got there, so everything was shut. No food, no drinks, no activities. NOTHING!!! We only went on a half day trip to see the supposed bird paradise, but there were no birds to be found. The... More

This place will blow your mind. There is nothing like it at all. It is like a video game or a scary movie - I cannot reccomend it enough but it is seriously so weird. The place is definately in disrepair; but certain features are spectacular - the GIGANTIC and deep swimming pool; the captain cook mural... the place is... More

I went to Adventure Island Resort in March and I had a great time. Got to see loads of tropical fish while swimming, the island walks where great and I got some awesome photos of the Whitsundays. The island had a great bar, with loads of entertainment, I loved the karaoke and the staff where really helpful! More

I booked this holiday as a retreat for me and my partner who haven't had a holiday together for a long time. I booked the beach front bungalow as I wanted it to be special. The first problem was the the boat ride over and transport from airport were not included. Not that big of a deal but most Whitsunday... More

DO NOT GO - My partner and I booked to stay for 3 nights and ended up staying for 1 because it was so awful. We were looking forward to sailing around the island in a catamaran and eating delicious seafood in the restaurant. The online advertising lead us to believe it was a resort with resort facilities - but... More

My partner and I booked for 2 nights here in the garden view room. From the outside the place looks nice but is a very old, run down resort..actually wouldn't even use the word resort. I can say we were upgraded to a beachfront room, thanks to out very lovely just Maria. The room was very poor standard, very dirty,... More

I booked in at late notice after checking the website about room types, activities, etc, looking for some peace and quiet. Sometimes you have to be careful what you wish for. I was one of somewhere between 3 and 5 guests on the Island. The main restaraunt was closed and the cafe was open at limited times with very limited... More

We had read the very mixed reviews about Koala Resort on South Molle Island in the Whitsundays and wondered what we might be getting ourselves in for, but it was just fantastic, and we would go back. It is the place to go for a quiet, relaxing holiday amidst beautiful scenery. You can do as much or as little as... More

To be fair, we only paid a visit and didn't stay (thank goodness) but part of the reason for reviewing is so that owners/managers can take our comments on board and do something about them. Hopefully. So here, in a nutshell, are my thoughts: 1. Peaceful and beautiful. 2. Shabby, run-down resort and in dire need of a re-vamp. 3.... More
