About the hotel

Experience island magic like nowhere else with a stay at this idyllic eco-resort, hidden on the UNESCO World Heritage-listed paradise of K’gari, off the Queensland coast. Kingfisher Bay Resort sits on the island’s western bay, consciously designed to sit within its natural surroundings while you’re tucked into private terraces overlooking the forest.

Days unfold around ranger-guided walks through ancient rainforest, then out to Lake McKenzie’s (Boorangoora) impossibly clear water or Eli Creek’s flowing channels. Return for sunset drinks at Sunset Bar on the western bay – the only place on the island where you can watch the sun drop into the Great Sandy Strait from the beach. Two lagoon-style pools snake through the property, and three restaurants and four bars keep the dining options rotating, from Sand & Wood’s produce-driven menu to Dune Restaurant’s Asian-fusion delights.

The all-new Illumina light and sound installation transforms the bushland after dark while humpback whales migrate past the island’s shores from July to October. Between guided eco-walks, the K’gari Discovery Centre and self-guided trails, the island’s natural features become the activity itself.
