OK, so it was my first visit to Lizard, and my girlfriend and I were completely blown away by the experience. It really is a special piece of paradise, that I suppose very few (relatively), ever get to experience. My advice to anybody weighing it up, is to just go there, as there is no way I could ever convey... More

From the moment you arrive on the private airstrip to the moment you check out, this is a 6 star property if there were such a thing. The attention to details, the individual attention from the chefs, the personal attention of the marina staff, is first class all the way. We were upgraded from our original booking to a larger...

The flight to the island over the reef is an adventure in itself. Then you are greeted and taken to your chalet with sea views and own garden opening onto the beach. The villas are recently refurbished and beautiful. Scented oils and ambient sounds lull you into complete relaxation on the most downy, comfortable bed I've ever experienced. Add to... More

Really difficult to review without resorting to hyperbole. Downside - it is expensive. But what you get get for your money is just amazing. You are met at the "airport' by the hotel staff with a glass of champagne, and that is just the beginning. Everybody on the Island is really friendly and accommodating. The rooms are beautiful. Having the... More

This was a perfect holiday for us. The resort is small and low key nested in the beautiful bush, and the rest of the island is national park so the natural environment takes centre stage, complemented by the understated relaxed elegance of the resort . Every meal was a gourmet treat with five-star service provided by a young staff, all... More

After hearing news on our wedding morning that our honeymoon in Fiji was cancelled (due to the severe weather) we were in an absolute panic. A friend recommended Lizard Island and we're glad she did. As soon as we step foot onto the island we were greeted with friendly smiles, a cool amazingly scented washer and a air conditioned transfer... More

From the minute you arrive, you are pampered. We stayed in an Anchor Bay suite which allows you to almost walk out onto the beach. Fantastic snorkeling is then possible just a few meters from the shore. The are multiple other locations to go snorkeling or scuba diving although we just did snorkeling Can't say enough about the food. It... More

For our second honeymoon we wanted to go somewhere special - we certainly found it! Lizard Island is just amazing - the location, the beaches, the staff, the wildlife, the food, the snorkelling... I could just go on. We're not people who would normally spend this kind of money on a holiday but as it was a week without the... More

As a previous reviewer has said, Lizard Island is truly a 'Died-and-gone-to-heaven' place. We stayed 5 nights, mid-March for our 25th Wedding Anniversary, and would easily say this is the most wonderful Island we have ever visited. We stayed in an Anchor Bay Suite (worth the extra money) which can best be described as a smaller version of a luxury... More

The Island and resort is the perfect place to get away from it all. The snorkelling off the beaches is great and the day trips even better. The staff team couldn't be better. If you have the chance visit.
