Heron Island Hotels with Parking

This is an ECO resort. Don’t come here if you want a luxury resort experience. Come here if you want a truly unique wildlife experience. The island is teeming with birds and surrounded by marine animals. You don’t even have to get in the water to see turtles, sharks, rays and fish. You can stand on the jetty or watch from the beach and you will see something amazing. You can snorkel or dive to see more. This is Australia’s version of a mini Galapagos. The resort balances guest comfort and aesthetics with budget and ecological sustainability. If you want 4 or 5 star aesthetics, this is not your place.

The Wilson Island experience was amazing for those who love being emmersed in nature; a huge array of coral and fish, turtles nesting and hatching in their season. Abundant bird life, and visitors must be prepared for the unending chatter from the species who inhabit the island (we loved it!). The hosts were sensational! Nothing too much trouble and they hold a wealth of knowledge about the wildlife (and cocktails!). And the food!!! Our chef was incredible and the food was out of this world. The tent accommodation was good; bed very comfy. Walk to amenities wasn’t too far, and all eco friendly toiletries and sunscreen was available. Due to the number of guests on island we were allocated our own shower room, but there is sometimes a need to share. Overall this was the best holiday experience we have had. Unforgettable!
