save your money - go elsewhere
Ok so Fraiser island is lovely without doubt, not so lovely is paying 1k aud for 2 nights in a hot tub villa that has a tub that struggles to fit 1 normal sized person comfortably, and that for all intensive purposes isnt part of the resort, and that you need to clean yourself!! ..... likewise the dune restaurant at $100 per head is terrible, the food would be good at a $25 price point as doesnt even live up to most surf clubs, and doesnt even have nice views!. Also the resort itself is inland and has no good views (although is sat in a forest which is cool!)

There were plenty of helpful friendly staff, but I feel some waiter service around the deck area and pool would enhance the experience. The room was greatand clean but could use a little general maintenance.

I felt very sorry for the staff. They were overworked, inexperienced but tried hard. The dining options were very limited and usually had long waiting times. A shuttle service to the spa villas at the top of the resort would have made getting children, strollers, aged a lot easier on such hot and humid days.
