Freeda! Freeda saved us! We needed the bridesmaids dresses steamed We were told that that could happen however when we got to the island, they said no. Freeda made calls and we were saved!

The most beautiful island experience in Australia, no doubts! Views, service and everything in between was amazing! Our eight years old had the best time with plenty of activities to enjoy (fish feeding the best!).

I stayed at Hayman in March and was absolutely stunned by this property and the boat arrival. While some areas are beginning to show their age, the resort still feels truly incredible. The team were outstanding and made the stay even more memorable. One of the highlights was the hiking trails through the island’s national park. You can easily spend a day exploring over 15 kilometres of beautiful wilderness, enjoying breathtaking scenery and a real sense of adventure. The island feels secluded, calm, relaxing and authentic. A truly special destination that offers both luxury and connection with nature. I would not hesitate to return.

I almost cancelled our trip to Hayman Island after reading some reviews on this site, but having just spent two weeks there I am so glad I didn’t. It was a wonderful, relaxing experience. The staff are great and the location simply stunning. Sure, there are aspects of the resort that could be improved but nothing detracted from a simply wonderful experience.
