Everything from the staff, food, and most importantly location. Once in a lifetime chance, and it was worth every penny. Make sure you go scuba diving, snorkeling, and take a picnic to your own beach.

Lizard Island is the place to go when you want to spoil yourself. The small plane takes you over the reef to the private runway. You are escorted into paradise by smiling, friendly and professional staff and the dream begins. The food was varied and delicious. The chef will create something special for even the fussiest palate. The views are... More

The biggest plus of the resort in my oppinion is the staff. Each and every employee is so friendly and welcoming and you really can feel that all of them like their job a lot. They are very attentive and do aspire after living up to every wish. So a big applause there! Also the food is just amazing and... More

The snorkeling right off the hotel's beach is excellent. Cod Hole one of the ten greatest dive locations is a one hour boat ride away. Sincerely friendly staff in the restaurant and water sports. The wonderful surprise was the excellent cooking. Plus free wine including French Champagne and excellent Australian Cabernet and Chardonnay.

It's great to have enforced peace and tranquillity. One hour north of Cairns flying over the great barrier reef is just the beginning. There was plenty to do here and nothing to do! Just want we needed. Great beaches, plenty to see snorkling, optional trips to the outer reef, sailing,sups and kayaking. But most importantly tranquillity. Great food and service.... More

Long due review, but we stayed on Lizard Island for 4 nights in August 2012 following our destination wedding on Lizard's sister property, Wilson Island. All I can say is WOW! What a fantastic place. It is true paradise and luxury. We flew from the US, into Brisbane, then to Gladstone for Wilson, then back to Brisbane and up to... More

We stayed on Lizard island for 5 days in the beginning of March 2013. Imagine fantasy island with Ricardo Montebalm and you have Lizard Island. This is one of the best resorts we have ever stayed at. We felt like we were in a good friends home. The staff was attentive and interested in what we were doing on the... More

We agree with all the superlatives. But, if forced to decide on THE factor which makes us want to return, it would be the staff. We stayed for five nights and not once did we experience any negative reaction, no matter what we asked for. The beach hut staff go out of their way to help with all the water... More
