The Resort On Lizard Island - Cairns

I could have stayed at this restaurant forever. It was truly the most amazing place I have ever been to. You can go straight from the beach and snorkel at the reef! How cool is that? The staff was lovely, attentive, and down-to-earth, willing to help with anything you need. The menus were a work of art, catering to all tastes. The accommodations were luxurious and perfectly beachy. I love Lizard Island, thank you so much! xxx

Great place Wonderful food/ Fantastic chefs Friendly professional staff from all over the world Beautiful beaches and very educational trips to the outer Barrier Reef snorkeling!

When i heard that Kate Hudson called this blessed spot on the planet just ridiculously luxurious i almost negated a proposed visit. Be that as it may, i recanted and guess what?.... it is and more... especially the rivalry by the island 's stunning natural beauty....Gob-smacked we idled in the rainforest that tumbles down rugged hillsides, swam in idyllic rocky bays that shimmer with crystalline blue begging to be explored. The resort just takes your breath away. Boardwalks meander through thickets of eucalypt and acacia, revealing tantalising glimpses of sparkling ocean while simultaneously making our presence private ensconced in our chic beachside pavilions. Opening the sliding glass doors we inhale the soft scent of the sea while sipping champers on our daybed watching the colours dance across the water as the sunset bathes the sky in soft pinks and lavender blues. We walked, swam, snoozed lazily in the warm sun and blew as many kisses to each other that was decent to do in public. Our lungs never tired of breathing below the water 's surface watching giant clams over a metre wide cluster just off-shore, their jewel-like colours shimmering like the contents of an underwater treasure chest.. Its easy to fall in love here... all you need is to be here.... with your better half , quipps the femme. ps. The food is superb, rivalling the oceanic bounty on our plates. Fish, in fact whole fish rather than slivers kept us sate and gestating wonderful platitudes to staff and management for a terrific four day sojourn. pps. Special thanks for my wonderful massages at the finale of dives.

The food was poor the service was poor and it certainly wasn't worth a day trip with my mum. It was meant to be a lovely day trip as a special treat but she was very unimpressed with it all.

Despite the logistical challenges of maintaining such high standards in a remote area, the resort was well worth it. The highlight of our stay was the incredibly helpful and cheerful staff who went above and beyond for us. One day, they arranged for a dinghy trip to one of the many bays, complete with a picnic lunch, beach chairs, towels, and support for our excursion. Upon our return, everything was taken care of for us. There were various snorkeling trips available, but we particularly enjoyed watching turtles. Swimming alongside them as they fed was a truly unforgettable experience. Meals were served in the main dining room overlooking the bay, with excellent food and a selection of high-quality wines. Once again, the staff made our dining experience memorable, as each waiter was knowledgeable about the menu and wines. It felt as though we were the only guests on the island at times.
