Fraser Island Retreat

The room was okay, needed a bit more cleaning because there was lots of sand on the sheets and the bin wasnt emptied. Restaurant food could have been better, very basic and not really good. But overall, good stay everyone was nice.

My partner and i plus 3 of our mates had a great stay overall at the retreat. The bungalow was a decent size with comfortable beds although it did feel strange having to all share the bathroom as well as use the sink to rinse coffee cups etc as there isnt any other sink except for the bathroom. There also wasnt any privacy at all for the mates of ours who slept in the other beds as there isnt actually two bedrooms as such, there is just one bedroom with the additional 3 beds being out in an open plan area with the fridge, small kitchen bench, lounge chair and pantry/personal cupboard space room where the beds are all side by side. The bungalow had a wonderful verandah out the front though which comfortably seated all of us and was nicely tucked away behind fencing but still had a view as we were at the top of the hill :) All of the staff that we met were very friendly and helpful and the bbq area was just fantastic. We made most of our meals there and it was always quiet and clean and there was plenty of seating + bench space to prepare food. We did love happy valley as a location and went fishing right in front of the retreat afew times but we were definitely glad to have two very reliable and capable 4wds to get us around to the other beautiful spots we waned to visit as everything is abit of a drive. Happy valley didnt have too much of a range of shops so be sure to bring as many of your own groceries as you can. Overall a peaceful and good value property though.

Very nice apartment complex, very helpful staff, great location

Lovely location and staff especially Tania were great. Room was great. Loved our short stay.

Quiet private and remote

We stayed for one night, the staff were very accommodating as I had to increase the number of people staying. The room was clean and tidy and the separate toilet/shower room looked fresh and newly renovated. The staff were able to provide gluten free meals and the food and drink was also really good. Would recommend as conveniently located and the service and accommodation was very good. Thanks again.

Our room was very clean also our bed linen and doonas. The staff were very helpful and the manager was extremely helpful with organizing our second day of our trip with great suggestions on what to do.

Great central location to the island. Bar staff are always friendly, food is great and reasonably priced too.

Last stay was 8 years ago. Enjoyed the stay but facilities are getting ‘tired’.

Clean, nice room and great location.

Beautiful and relaxing, staff were all so friendly. Convenience of dining in if you wish, a relaxed bar. We went at peak summer so an extra fan/s would have been a bonus. A few steps to tackle to take your gear up. Refreshing pool was fantastic.

Room is big and clean.

The room was filthy. The people staying next to our room were up partying until 2am and the staff did nothing about it.

The room was not cleaned properly with sand, dust and rubbish under the beds and the lounge. Very limited cooking facilities in the room which is described as "two bedroom". In fact it is a single bedroom with the sitting area converted to a bedroom. The "camp kitchen was no more than a barbecue with a sink. Overall very expensive for second rate facilities. I would not recommend this place to anyone.

The bungalow was dusty. The shower is a shocker it does not drain properly you are standing in 20 mil of water all the time and the spray goes on the floor very dangerous. And to finish off I pulled the top sheet on the double bed back and there was all black pebbles on the white sheets that looked like a cockroach had been living there. Never again. Errol

Friendly service

The staff were all so friendly . We had a lovely stay . The cabins were clean and comfortable .

Parking away from cabins was not ideal as our cabin was one of the furthest away from the car park. A kitchenette setup would be ideal.

Great accommodation as an alternative to camping. Basic but every you could need

Nice well kept property. Clean Large rooms. Excellent owners and staff. Property lacks AC but the island cools of after 10.00 pm so not a big deal. I would suggest to the owners to lock the pool area during restricted hours as some guests decided to use the pool late at night disturbing other guests with the noise they made.
