I thought Palm Bay Resort was a beautiful Island. The only dispointment was that the tennis court was closed and not in useable condition but they still advertise it as an attraction. Everything else was perfect.

Ultimate relaxation. If you are looking for off the grid, look no further. The island is BEAUTIFUL!!!!!! There is so much wildlife and natural beauty here. The bush walks were great, it allowed you to see the whole island. Every morning we had breakfast with the cockatoo's and watched the wallaby's walk around and eat. If you are looking for a touristy kind of place this is NOT it. This place is so quiet and relaxing you forget there is a world outside of it. They do offer excursions for those who want to have an adventure. I would highly recommend the rafting tour out to White Haven beach.

A wonderful stay at the property. The staff was excellent. Shout out to Chase, Sarah, and Tommy. They worked non-stop to make sure our guest experience was perfect. The meals were excellent but with the heat, it would have been nice to have some lighter dining options.

Amazing location and beautiful bungalows overlooking pristine beach and bay. 5 day stay and loved it… so relaxing and part of nature. Only thing to change… music playlists as after a day they repeat (although staff happy to change at my request- thanks Tommy and Chase).
Very friendly cockatoos, love nuts!
