Virgin Holidays View
One of Australia's most spectacular luxury resorts, this tropical haven lies on the Great Barrier Reef and is nestled between a stunning beach and lush forest landscape. The centrepiece is a large and breathtakingly beautiful pool with a smaller island pool and sun terrace, complete with poolside dining. You can also dine overlooking the azure waters of the ocean, in a selection of romantic restaurants, privately on your candlelit balcony, or even at the chef's table, in the kitchen. Modern European, Asian, Italian, Mediterranean and, of course, Australian flavours are on the menu. The gorgeous Spa Hayman is part of Guerlain-Spa Chakra alliance, and has 13 treatment rooms and a special hydrotherapy area. The guest rooms are large and airy, with plump-cushioned rattan furniture and a large balcony or terrace.
