Relaxing holiday
All staff were friendly and welcoming, the food was freshly prepared and delicious, the room was comfortable and updated. Great reef location and we took the opportunity to have a digital detox!

Unforgettable stay
Lady Elliot Island is a must see for any nature lovers. What an incredible experience. Snorkelling with turtles, sharks and manta rays. Watching the huge turtles come up at night to lay their eggs. The island covered with friendly birds and their fluffy babies. Just amazing!

Wonderfully welcoming, friendly, accommodating, knowledgeable, competent staff
From the moment we arrived we felt so welcomed. It was obvious that management care for and look after their staff as that culture flows thru to your guests. Your staff are real credit to the Gash family and Management. The staff were wonderfully welcoming, friendly, accommodating, knowledgeable, and competent.
The meals were delicious, and the variety and various dietary requirements catered for was impressive. The only disappointment was the lack of good coffee (bags, plunger or percolated) available with the large variety of teas on offer. Another suggestion for an additional service would be a massage centre.
The constant need to check in with the dive shop re: activities available each day, time of departure etc was tedious. It would have been far more convenient to have these posted on the activities board in the dining precinct and on a sandwich board outside the dive shop or reception.
Thank you for a wonderful stay, we will certainly be back and will continue to recommend LEI as a holiday destination.
