Accommodation In Whitsunday Islands

What sounds good on your next holiday? Soaking up the sun on sandy beaches? Bushwalking through some of Australia’s best national park lands? Or sipping umbrella drinks in between massages and gourmet meal?

We know. This one’s a stumper. As long as you make your destination the Whitsundays, you don’t actually have to choose. All you have to do is stick around long enough to experience it all.

The Whitsundays are made up of 74 awesome islands. That’s 74 islands of swaying palm trees, dive-worthy coral reefs, and clear turquoise waters that are perfect for sailing. Book accommodation in the Whitsundays and pack your entire thong collection. You’ll need them both to fully explore this tropical paradise on holiday.

How do I get to the Whitsundays from the airport?

The closest international airport to our hotels in the Whitsundays is Cairns (CNS), 500km away. From there, you can take a coach, arrange car hire for a road trip, or hop another flight to Hamilton Island (HTI) or Proserpine (PPP). We can handle all of your flight details and accommodations when you book one of our Whitsundays holiday packages. Easy as sipping umbrella drinks at sunset. Bring your sunnies and a good hat, because once you’re in the islands, the best way to get around is (surprise!) by boat.
