A member of the prestigious Luxury Lodges of Australia collection, the island dazzles with countless moments of quiet wonder – take your complimentary motorised dinghy and spend days picnicking across 24 exceptional beaches, hike your way across over the lush hinterland, or take your pick from some of the world’s most legendary dive sites, including the Ribbon Reefs and the world-famous Cod Hole. With all-inclusive dining included and unlimited free-flow drinks, you’re all set for the adventure of a lifetime. Enjoy a modern Australian menu at Salt Water, head to Driftwood Bar & Cellar for world-class wines and sunsets guaranteed to leave you breathless, or try out Marlin Bar – the island’s only public venue – for casual fare, cocktails and good times aplenty.
