Best Fitzroy Island Hotels

"The hotel looks much better than the pictures, we were pleasantly surprised. The staff is friendly and ready to help you with all your questions. The snorkelling around the island is great as well, but you have to rent out all the needed gear at extra price. You can also go on nice hikes, the view is spectacular! The island only has two restaurants, and one shop which closes at 4:30pm and the prices are higher than on the land. We recommend bringing your own snacks and water if you don’t drink from the tap. The breakfast is served at only one place for $35 per person for the buffet. There was not much to choose from, there was only one type of cheese and only pork available. The lunch is only served at Foxy’s, which is a second restaurant, it has a limited menu but it is a good place with big portions and good price. For dinner there are two options, either at Foxy’s, same menu as lunch, or at the restaurant where the breakfast was served. There you can choose two ($68) or three ($79) course menu, the choices are good, food is great as well, but the portions are on a smaller side. Overall the experience at this hotel was great, would definitely come back with the rest of the family but will bring our own snacks, water and fizzy drinks."

"Although the room is not new, it is well maintained, but there is no quilt. I stayed in late July. It was still a bit cold without a quilt at night, so I had to take the thin blanket in the closet. There is a free shuttle boat from Cairns to Green Island when staying at Green Island Resort. It takes about 40 minutes to arrive. It is free to go to DIVE SHOP to get snorkeling equipment and glass boats when staying on the island, but there may not be underwater photography equipment to borrow. Try to bring your own or borrow it in the city. If breakfast is not included, you can bring some food and water to Green Island. Green Island has only one fast food restaurant, one formal restaurant and one cafe, and the food is limited! There are some self-funded projects on the island, such as parasailing, helicopter or boat to a farther place for snorkeling, choose according to your needs. You can snorkel in the shallower place near the island with younger children, and you can also see beautiful small fish!"
