Great stay for a couple of days, accommodation needs some updating (parts of the room were falling apart ie. broken tiles, sharp grout and dripping aircon). Some staff were amazing and some were very abrupt and unhelpful. The guided kayak tour was great, Sara was super lovely and just a really relaxing way to hang out on the way. Pool area is small and limited seating but drinks at the pool were great. Foxy’s has ok food but prices are pretty high, live music on a Saturday night is a good vibe. Overall a good short stay if you’re looking to just relax, snorkel and get away from winter.

Overall, the place was beautiful. Our room was mediocre - didn't realize we had reserved one without windows. The snorkeling was great across from the turtle center. Nudey beach is beautiful but the snorkeling there is not nearly as good.

Stayed in the two-bedroom apartment,.The apartment it self was amazing overlooking welcome bay, it was bright and clean the connecting studio was as expected quite dark with only one window overlooking the walkway at the back of the property. After reading the reviews we did bring our own food over however the quality of food at both restaurants was really good. The staff were all lovely and helpful and the island is amazing, got to see lots of turtles.

If stay in ground floor units you hear all the footsteps of guests that stay on the top floors. That happens all day long. Rooms are not thoroughly cleaned. There are a lot of mosquitoes in the resort. If you open your sliding doors, you will wake up with a lot of mosquitoes bites. The best area is nudey beach.

The Island itself was picturesque. The lack of information, room, food was discraceful. I have written my concerns directly to the Manager on Fitzroy Is. Parking in Cairns is limited to 10 hours a day paid there was no one who could let me know where i could camp overnight to stay out on the island. I would have only done a day trip or not at all if i knew that you did not offer ant parking for YOUR customers. The fines i received should fall onto your company responsibilities $ 74.00 per day x 2 days, nights totaled $148.00 , if any of you decide to go out to Fitzroy island, note you will have to factor in parking fines, of up to $90.00 others got fined. Not a good look Fitzroy, for anyone.

The location is stunning - the resort is badly designed the pool lounges face a wall rather than looking out over the ocean, no change room near the pool or beach, the smaller rooms face dark corridors, the resort shop is grungy the room decor not tropical at all. The restaurant staff were great and food reasonable but They had run out if half the menu items, signage around the resort was laminated photocopies sticky taped up - very tacky- there are lots of weeds from the resort gardens escaping into the surrounding rainforest. oh and the piped music is terrible - kiss and ACDC
