The Resort – An eco-friendly paradise with complimentary activities
Located within the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Great Barrier Reef, just 45 minutes across the sparkling Coral Sea from Cairns, Green Island Resort is an eco-certified luxury resort that invites you to discover this marine wonderland’s delights while helping to preserve the reef’s precious eco-system.
While it may be small in size, with just 46 boutique suites, this serene hideaway plays a big part in sustainability, from using solar power and new-generation technologies to boasting some of the most innovative waste management practices in Australia.
On this dreamy dot in the Coral Sea, you will be able to create your own escape, doing as much (or as little) as you like. Spend your days on this one-of-a-kind coral cay – the only one with a rainforest in this exquisite marine park – exploring the reef, or stay on the island and enjoy the engaging array of complimentary resort activities, from snorkelling and kayaking to beach volleyball and windsurfing. Wind down with a massage, laze by the two swimming pools or enjoy a cocktail at the poolside bar.
Your Handpicked Inclusions – Daily breakfast, nightly drinks with a view, a full-day Great Barrier Reef cruise and so much more
There’s no better way to start your day in this natural paradise than with a complimentary daily breakfast, and there’s no better way to end the day than with a nightly sunset drink (one beer or glass of wine per adult), as you watch the pink and purple shades of twilight creep across the Coral Sea.
Indulge in sumptuous food with a side of stunning views at Emeralds Restaurant & Bar, where you can opt for beachside dining (surcharges apply). Sample the restaurant’s creations with A$50 credit per package to be used towards a decadent lunch or dinner, with no restrictions on the number of guests who dine together. Plus, up to two children aged 14 and under stay free with daily breakfast. Children eat free from the kids’ menu for dinner when dining with an adult purchasing a main meal from the à la carte menu.
Take advantage of fish-feeding presentations throughout the week (on select days), and complimentary kayaking and snorkelling on select days. Enjoy an incredible Great Barrier Reef cruise for two adults and up to two children (14 and under) with the team from Great Adventures Cruise. Dive into turquoise waters and witness the wonders under the sea with a snorkelling session, behold the technicoloured coral reefs in a semi-submersible viewing vessel, and enjoy onboard lunch with tea and coffee included.
Additionally, take a trip of a different kind aboard the resort’s glass-bottom boat to explore the stunning marine life, plus enjoy a 20% discount off an introductory or certified diving lesson.
