Whitsunday accommodation

Now I might be a little biased, but I do believe we have one of the best accommodation sites in the Whitsundays. So close to Airlie Beach and just off the Bruce Highway from Proserpine our ever changing rural view is rather spectacular.

We have enjoyed hosting many couples, and are pleased they also love our private sanctuary on the hill. We appreciate the 5 star accommodation reviews!

Katherine and Gary are amazing hosts, they make you feel welcomed and at home. The room is spacious and we particularly enjoyed the spa bath and the stunning views from the balcony. It's very close to Airlie Beach but secluded to enjoy the beautiful nature and wildlife. Breakfast consists of eggs on toast from Katherine and Gary's chickens. Best eggs ever! Warmly recommend!

Having lived in the Whitsundays for some years, and working in the tourism and hospitality industries, we can help you with your sightseeing and holiday plans. There isn't a tour, event or place we don't know about in Airlie Beach!

Come and enjoy our Whitsunday rural retreat and all that the beautiful Whitsundays region has to offer, including the award winning Whitehaven Beach and World Heritage Great Barrier Reef.

Whitsunday flying

This morning we were introduced to the Whitsunday Flying Friends at a fly-in breakfast at 'Heathrow' in Lethebrook.  They are a friendly bunch who regularly meet at various airstrips between Bowen and Mackay for some breakfast and chatter about all things aerial. Over delicious pancakes made from farm fresh eggs, it was exciting to hear tales of flying adventures, making us keen to hurry up and each get our gyroplane pilot licence.

We both were fortunate to be taken up in the host's light plane for sensational views of the O'Connell River, Repulse Bay and the Whitsunday islands. With plenty of sugar cane paddocks to land if need be, this wide open area would be an ideal place to get the hang of flying solo when that time eventually comes. Thanks to our hosts, Ian and Julie, for a great morning.
