The stay
What to know about this stay.
Reef View Hotel sits on Hamilton Island, its large rooms looking out over either the Coral Sea or the island's tropical gardens. As part of Hamilton Island's broader resort complex, guests here have the run of the island's restaurants, marina and golf course alongside their own hotel.
The island's marina, golf course and dive shop are all a short buggy ride from the hotel, and day trips to Whitehaven Beach or the outer reef are easy to arrange from the resort's tour desk. It's a more accessible, family-friendly counterpart to the island's higher-end qualia resort further along the coast, with pool, gym and concierge services extending well beyond what a single hotel would typically offer.
