Description

Please note: This business is currently closed due to recovering from the recent cyclone in Queensland. It is scheduled to re-open April 2012.

Dunk Island was known to the first inhabitants as 'Coonanglebah' - the isle of peace and plenty. Today, the palm-fringed beaches and lush rainforests of this tropical island are ideal for those who want to enjoy time out or the time of their lives. The resort is located in a National Park, halfway between Townsville and Cairns, off the coast of Mission Beach.

There are many activities to choose from on Dunk, horse-riding, rainforest walks, catamarans, tandem sky diving, golf, or visiting the island farm. For a change of pace, get away to a sun-soaked beach with a gourmet picnic hamper, or indulge yourself at the Spa of Peace and Plenty, to rejuvenate your mind, body and soul.

For a family holiday, there are plenty of things to do together, but when mum and dad want some time out, the Kids Club gives three to 12 year olds plenty to do. All rooms are well-appointed with four grades of accommodation, each with beach or garden views. On this family-friendly island children also stay and eat free.
