The room was large and the woodwork in the room was gorgeous. The bathroom was well appointed and the veranda backed on to rainforest. The room felt very private and you are not overlooked by other guests. The pool area was very relaxing and the staff were very friendly. It felt like a private island after the day guests left at 4.30\. Highly recommended, you would not be disappointed. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/0133d4f5-e253-469f-a0ed-7aa174cd65b6-1753779901910.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/277e045f-8771-4220-a077-140762a487a1-1753779903949.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/fb564f56-9467-43b6-8571-b2389bc4e2d9-1753779901701.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/7795667c-0a46-42f6-ad01-a34b737a7525-1753779900488.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Julie Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tristan Kyle Apr 20, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Loved the rainforest vibe of the island!

Daily snorkelling and walks along the beach or through the rainforest. The staff are delightful and don’t miss daily fish feeding followed by sunset drinks after the day trippers leave. Already planning my next stay! ##### Jacqui Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Maria Dec 25, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We had a wonderful stay at The Mantra. We booked the spa onsite for a massage and it was amazing. We had a connecting room with the kids and the rooms were so spacious with a wonderful view. Internet was dicey, but we did not care. We asked for 3rd floor even after reading the reviews but we loved it. Staff are wonderful too. The walk to the affiliated restaurant for breakfast was alot in the muggy weather but so good. One of the best buffets we have had and we also had lunch one day there. Fantastic. ##### Maria Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Akane Aug 17, 2024 The rooms were clean. Be careful of the birds swimming in the pool and stealing food from customers' plates in the restaurant. It's a shame that there is very little to do in bad weather. ##### Akane Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Renee Jan 28, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Beautiful island but incredibly overpriced for what it is. The rooms are tired, without basics like a couple of champagne glasses or a wine knife, We had electrical items that didn’t work. $38 for a buffet breakfast which was really basic and fairly tasteless and you could not order a proper coffee with breakfast.. A budget coffee machine that can’t make a flat white and no decaf coffee anywhere on the island. We were directed to the instant coffee sachets. You can have black coffee, black coffee and black coffee from the self service machine that looks like it was made in the 80’s, even though there is a barista coffee machine behind the bar, it was refused. Who doesn’t want a good coffee on the morning? Absolute bonuses- sunset drinks on the jetty, great dive instructor, beach and location, quiet and ambient evening once everyone goes home. Staff were welcoming and friendly and dinner was off the hook amazing. Must have the barramundi spring rolls and kangaroo. Our dinner was absolutely worth every cent! All in all a great stay but just overpriced for the stay and breakfast. . ##### Renee Stayed 1 night in Jan 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller Dec 31, 2024 #### Disappointed. If you are in cairns just for the Great Barrier Reef, then maybe you are better off just staying in a nice resort and going by boat and checking out the reef and coming back. The green island resort is definitely eco-touristy in the sense that it is on the island but the number of tourists that come during daytime is insane during peak periods and you feel like u r in a Disney theme resort. It was nice that we could come back from our snorkel tour, take shower and immediately take a nap vs. wait for the afternoon boat tour to go back to Cairns. Just not sure if it was worth the nearly 450 dollars or so a night for the room. The food was extra and the dinner choices were not that great, don’t order the naan eggplant. Oyesters had gone bad. We enjoyed the Salmon and the risotto. The breakfast choices were good and the kids enjoyed it. The dive shop snorkel tour was very convenient and extra price. Clarissa was a marine biologist and we did the glass bottom tour with her and she almost salvaged our trip. If I were to do this again// would stay at a better hotel for that price in Cairns/ book all trips thru the main land. You also need lots of bug spray if you want to enjoy the national park and want to walk thru it. It’s a paved path and I am glad they are preserving it. In terms of the GBR itself — definitely nothing like it in terms of the biodiversity. I have been to Galapagos and Roatan, and am glad I had the privilege to see this as well. Hope this helps. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/670BC8DD3CA52770F42F037D5934D5DDB6722E1B1735612880446.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Roger Dec 14, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities Wonderful, unique island, great staff, friendly. Reef suites are a classic design and spotlessly clean and spacious. Terrific snorkelling off beach beside pier, on the fringe and outer reef. The various reefs ARE in great shape with healthy coral and myriad fish. Dive shop team led by the extraordinary Craig, are outstanding. Emerald Restaurant's current food offering is expensive and virtually inedible. This was our 5th, five night stay on Green Island. Everything, except the restaurant met our high expectations. Resort is not viable unless the restaurant and food offering on the island are dramatically upgraded to competitive global standards. ##### Roger Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### James Sep 7, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Overall great stay. Menu options could be improved to match the captive audience pricing! Not a deal breaker but step up the game a little. Would certainly return! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/0c77cf94-5cfc-4384-abd9-4c62a840f284-1757213049903.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### James Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Rosalee Jun 30, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities The island and accommodation is lovely Perfect escape from Cairns ##### Rosalee Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Maria Jul 8, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Very pretty island, would visit again. ##### Maria Stayed 1 night in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Elisabeth Jan 12, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Staff were incredible - answered all of our questions. ##### Elisabeth Stayed 1 night in Jan 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Glenn james Jul 20, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Our 5th or 6th stay. The resort is clean, quiet and peaceful! The team did everything they could to make sure we had a lovely 10 day stay. Many thanks for making it special for us. ##### Glenn james Stayed 10 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jurate Sep 15, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Was good experience. ##### Jurate Stayed 1 night in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### mark Sep 6, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Marine life was wonderful. Marine land and Melanesia were good. Amazing to see crocs up soo close. Room was excellent, food was very good. Bigger or changing menu would have been nice. Very expensive place to visit but also a very nice place. ##### mark Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bo Jun 20, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The only downside is the smell in the room. Apart from that, all good ##### Bo Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Nick Apr 25, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Service is done by backpackers - lazy! Food is below average and Uber expensive. This resort is way over priced - they seriously need to lift their game. ##### Nick Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alexander Mar 26, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Delightful 1 night stay. Id go back. Not sure for more than 1 night. But perfect for a night. Dinner was splendid. Far better than we expected. Delicious for an islans restaurant. Breakfast satisfactory and hotel manager very empathetic with a bit of an issue we encountered with work at home - and did whatever she could to help us resolve it. Room was comfy, tidy and as youd expect. Mint place ##### Alexander Stayed 1 night in Mar 2023 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Thomas Oct 31, 2023 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Really run down room. Broken blinds couldn’t keep sun out. What you guys are charging a night needs a major revamp for that price. The island needs some TLC. Should of stayed at Fitzroy island. ##### Thomas Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### shaun Mar 6, 2023 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities This property is ideal for a day trip but therein lies its downfall. We didn't expect it to be full of day trippers we expected (at the price point of >ÂŁ400/night) more of a tranquil and relaxing environment. It is sell sell sell from the moment the ferry departs to when it arrives at the island. Because of the volume of day trippers the food outlets can't cope so there is extensive wait times, again not what is expected. The accommodation is okay but slightly dated and in need of repairing some areas. All in all not a good experience for us, so much so we returned to the mainland after only one night cutting our stay short, the staff dealt with this very well it has to be said. ##### shaun Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Shearwater Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Shearwater-Hotels-Shearwater-Resort.h11114220.Hotel-Information) > > [Bahia Principe Luxury Sian Ka'an - Adults Only - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Akumal-Hotels-Bahia-Principe-Luxury-Sian-Kaan-Adults-Only-All-Inclusive.h4093165.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Toronto](https://www.expedia.ca/Pearson-Intl-Airport-Hotels.0-aYYZ-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hyde Beach House](https://www.expedia.ca/Fort-Lauderdale-Hotels-Hyde-Beach-House-Resort.h42435925.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Whitby](https://www.expedia.ca/Whitby-Hotels.d7606.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Holiday Inn Express New York City Times Square by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/New-York-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-New-York-City-Times-Square.h2039863.Hotel-Information) > > [The Copa Cabana at Copacabana](https://www.expedia.ca/Copacabana-Hotels-The-Copa-Cabana-At-Copacabana.h33554165.Hotel-Information) > > [ibis budget Southampton Centre](https://www.expedia.ca/Southampton-Hotels-Ibis-Budget-Southampton-Centre.h6174943.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Riu Plaza The Gresham Dublin](https://www.expedia.ca/Dublin-Hotels-Hotel-Riu-Plaza-The-Gresham-Dublin.h6919.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in La Malbaie](https://www.expedia.ca/La-Malbaie-Hotels.d9545.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Fairmont Resort Blue Mountains MGallery Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-Fairmont-Resort-Spa-Blue-Mountains.h522363.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels with Free Airport Shuttle in Vancouver](https://www.expedia.ca/Vancouver-Hotels-Hotels-With-Free-Airport-Shuttle.0-0-d178315-tHotelswithFreeAirportShuttle.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [AccorHotels Hotels in Palm Springs](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Accor-Hotels.0-0-d180676--bAccorHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [The Sebel Whitsundays Airlie Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Airlie-Beach-Hotels-At-Blue-Horizon-Resort-Apartments.h2650727.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express & Suites Halifax - Dartmouth by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Halifax-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-And-Suites-Halifax-Dartmouth.h34504431.Hotel-Information) > > [Canvas Moncton, Tapestry Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.ca/Moncton-Hotels-Tapestry-By-Hilton-Moncton.h39216336.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn New York City - Wall Street by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/New-York-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-New-York-City-Wall-Street.h2202045.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Toronto](https://www.expedia.ca/Toronto-Hotels.d178314.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Kelowna](https://www.expedia.ca/Kelowna-Hotels.d3997.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Niagara Falls](https://www.expedia.ca/Niagara-Falls-Hotels.d6023515.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Bonnie Doon Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Bonnie-Doon-Hotels-Bonnie-Doon-Hotel.h20516057.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Philippine Airlines](https://www.expedia.ca/Philippine-Airlines-Flights.cPR.Travel-Guide-Airlines) > > [Flights from Vancouver (YVR) to Delhi (DEL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/del/vancouver-to-delhi) > > [Flights from Buffalo (BUF) to Fort Lauderdale (FLL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/buf/fll/buffalo-to-fort-lauderdale)
