An amazing getaway on the Great Barrier Reef
A great place for a short visit (4 nights). Easily accessible yet absolutely isolated. We keep coming back (our 12th visit I think). We love the ambience, the food and the access to the Barrier Reef. A truly wonderful experience. We intend to go back again.

Fantastic Visit to Lizard Island Resort
Lizard Island is a slice of paradise. It is an island in the Great Barrier Reef reached by plane from Cairns. The main resort is on Anchor Bay with a lovely beach to enjoy. But there are many other beaches on the island reachable by dinghy or staff drop-off (which we preferred). The snorkeling is fantastic. We especially liked the Clam Garden in Watson’s Bay (next to Anchor Bay). These clams are 4 feet across which was just mind blowing. The sunsets are spectacular, especially from your own private pool in the Sunset Beach villas. The food is really good as well. The menu changed every day for lunch and dinner with entrees and mains to choose from, with both fish and non-fish choices. The staff is young, energetic, and very friendly. They are from all ove the world and always willing to share something about their home which made the visit that much more special. I highly recommend visiting Lizard Island Resort. You won’t regret it.

Outstanding experience at a beautiful resort
Outstanding experience at a beautiful resort. First class all around. The food was great, the dive masters were very experienced, and the island is beautiful. Pricey, but worth it. We dove with Hanna and Max ... they were both excellent. Hanna, in particular, is one of the best divemasters we've had

Trip of a lifetime to Paradise
This is paradise !!! Unbelievable views, superior service and food, wonderful amenities, and lots of water activities. Very relaxed atmosphere to do as little or as much as you want. I believe our group did it all, from hiking to water sports. Snorkeling and kayaking on the Great Barrier Reef is a definite bucket list item to check off.

Welcome to paradise
Words cannot describe the experience we lived here. We started to say wow before arriving and never stopped. We were pretty lucky, as hotel was at less than 50% capacity with probably 20 people on the entire island. Result: we had amazing beaches only for us. Landscape is wonderful and marine life unbelievable, both on earth and on the sea. Room was spacious and super comfortable, with daily refill of snacks, soft drinks and wine. Only minor flags on the restaurant, as service was good but too slow (we spent more than 1.5h for every meal!) and food quality not always as expected
