Description

Located amidst the magical waters of the Great Barrier Reef, Orpheus is nestled in a sheltered bay of a National Park island, fringed by some of Queensland's most spectacular corals.

Catering for the discerning traveller, the island atmosphere is relaxed and unspoilt, one that best suits a magical tropical isle. Accommodating just forty indulged guests at any one time ensures serenity and seclusion reign. With a unique ambiance, and a beautiful balance between luxury, sanctuary and modernity, all accommodation types ensure utter comfort in a relaxed and chic setting even our eco tent's offering a rare opportunity for guests in a 'glamping' like setting.

There are no forced activities on Orpheus, however there is plenty for you to do! Orpheus' dive and snorkel sites are home to 1,100 of the 1,500 species of fish on the reef and 340 of the 359 varieties of hard corals. The reef is also a fisherman's playground as the local waters surrounding Orpheus provide some of the most sought after reef and game fish species. You can also take the helm of your very own motorised dinghy and discover the secluded and unspoilt coves surrounding the Lodge. Walk straight off the powder-white sand into pellucid blue-green waters or bask in the warm sunshine and enjoy a delicious gourmet picnic hamper on your own private beach. Alternatively, you can do nothing at all - one certainty is that on Orpheus, you will find the perfect sanctuary.
