“Best Girls Trip for our Honeymoon / 1st Anniversary” – 5 stars
Best Anniversary Trip. The trip on the Flyer was relaxing and the staff were friendly and great. The resort staff were beautiful. We had exceptional services, the food was soo Good!. We didn’t feel the need to do extra curricula activities because the resort, beach, bar and resturaunt was enough for us as a couple.

“Overnight Holiday” – 5 stars
Loved Fitzroy. We arrived on the 8am ferry and left the following day on the 5pm ferry. I would recommend these travel times as you can realy make the most of your time on the island. We had our toddler with us so didn’t partake in many activities but we loved the beach and the kids pool at the resort. Staff were all friendly and accommodating. We ate at the zephyr restaurant for dinner. Dinner was very good, flavors, portion presentation. Would recommend.
Our room was very clean and tidy with a great view for sunset on the third floor. Nice verandah to enjoy a drink on.

“Turtles in Paradise” – 5 stars
We stayed at Fitzroy island resort for three days. The atmosphere was very relaxed and family friendly. Our room was amazing with a view out over the water. The highlight of the trip was when we snorkelled with a family of turtles right in front of the room. We also climbed to the summit of the island for a great view of the surrounding area. The island has so much to do that next time I will book a longer stay. This place ticks bucket list items a plenty!

“Fitzroy Island” – 5 stars
A week holiday on a exotic island was what we planned for a while and was very pleased that we have chosen Fitzroy Island.
Rooms were very good and the resort well maintained with friendly staff. The restaurant and functions room staff exceeded them selves and we will remember that.
We will like to come back to have more of that experience

What a fantastic place to stay, apart from the resort, beaches and walks to the summit the rest of the island is untouched. The whole place is idyllic snorkelling and diving produced fantastic results in the fish, coral and turtle life at the island. What a magical place!

“Fantastic Trip to a Beautiful Resort” – 5 stars
We recently returned from our 2nd trip to Fitzroy Island Resort and what a beautiful island.
After a disastrous trip to Green Island where we left after staying just one night ( do not go there as felt like a run down theme park) we decided to spend the remaining 3 nights of our trip on Fitzroy and it didn’t disappoint.
The resort is fantastic and as soon as you arrive on the island you just feel so chilled and relaxed.
The Ocean suites are huge and have the most beautiful views over the ocean .
We loved sitting at Foxys bar with a jug of Pimms listening to the music and watching the beautiful sunsets.
The staff were so friendly and helpful.
A special mention to Shane at the pool bar. What a great asset he is. When he heard that we were celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary he had a word with the restaurant manager and they arranged for us to receive a lovely complimentary glass of champagne with our celebration dinner.
Such a lovely touch. ( we also received a welcome letter on arrival wishing us a happy 25th anniversary).
Also a mention for Juan , our fantastic Argentinian waiter who couldn’t do enough to help us and provide such excellent and friendly service.
The restaurant food was a great standard and the buffet breakfasts offered a great selection. Such a beautiful location eating breakfast overlooking the ocean.
Foxys bar also offered a great selection of reasonably priced great evening meals.
Also enjoyed kayaking and snorkeling and got the great pleasure in seeing turtles and numerous other fish.
Would highly recommend Fitzroy Resort and can’t wait to return for another trip.

“Warm Tropical Getaway” – 5 stars
The clear water was a stand out here. Snorkelling with all types and colours of fish just a few steps from the shore and a good chance of swimming with turtles too! The resort runs are Beautiful, spacious and attractively furnished. We stayed in room 227 and then 209 and both had lovely views of the palm fringed ocean. Sunsets are amazing! The bar is great day or night and live music plays some nights too. We brought in supplies for cooking as the general store on the island hardly has any groceries. Great nature walks and visiting the turtle rescue hospital was really wonderful. Wish we’d stayed much longer than just 4 days. Highly recommended for everyone!

“Quiet, Relaxing Resort with Great Service” – 5 stars
I have so many good things to say about this place. It was definitely the highlight of our Australia trip. First off, the staff is all super helpful and friendly. I discovered on arrival that I had booked and prepaid for the wrong days and was showing up on the day I was scheduled to checkout. The front desk manager didn’t make me stress more than a minute before rebooking me a room and activity package with no penalty. That and all other experiences booking activities and eating around the resort were very pleasant and easy.
Second, there’s only this small resort on Fitzroy and it feels very quiet and peaceful, so so much better than busy Cairns. Especially after the last ferry leaves the island for the day. The island itself is gorgeous. Loved the summit hike and the snorkeling was amazing. Saw an octopus, a bunch of rays, a handful of sea turtles, sharks and a huge variety of tropical fish and coral. The glass bottom boat brought us to an amazing snorkeling spot with better coral but the fish we saw right off the resort beach was just as good or better. The boat operator was fantastic too.
I was very happy with our suite which had a full kitchen huge windows/ sliding doors, balcony and nice bathroom. The A/C worked like a dream and I didn’t think anything smelled musty or looked outdated

“Best Valentines Day Ever” – 5 stars
Went to Fitzroy at the suggestion of a friend, it was beautiful and relaxing. The views were wonderful, the sunsets romantic and made for the perfect Valentines day dinner. My wife and I along with another couple (great friends of 30 years) had dinner catered on the beach. Candles, the sound of the surf, and a wonderful sunset, what more can you do for your wife after 28+ years of marriage and talk about it on Tripadvisor.
Would recommend 2-4 days on-site, get the “activity” package as well. High marks for the room, nice beach view, breakfast was also well done.
If ever near Cairns again, we will spend a long weekend at Fitzroy!

“Day Trip to the Resort with Glass Bottom Boat & Snorkelling” – 5 stars
Had an amazing day trip to Fitzroy Island, we took the Fitzroy Flier over and back, fast and efficient. The Glass Bottom boat with snorkelling was amazing, Tor took us over to little Fitzroy, told us all about the Reef, the fish we were seeing, the coral’s, etc. he was very knowledgeable and he, Aston and Lassi were brilliant. It was all very well organised and a wonderful experience. The visit to the Turtle Rehabilitation Centre with Cherie was another highlight, it was great to see the work they are doing there with sick and injured turtles. Snorkeling off the beach with the baby black tip reef sharks was just the icing on the cake. Well worth a visit!!

Room had fabulous views through the trees to the ocean, and beautifully appointed. Swam with turtles and gorgeous tropical fish in pristine waters, learnt about turtle conservation at the rehab centre. Just enough time to recharge at the end of our holiday. Highly recommended, would love to come again!

“Piece of paradise” – 5 stars
Excellent, excellent, excellent. We just spent three glorious days on Fitzroy Island! The staff are amazing, friendly, smiling, efficient with great positive attitudes. We felt welcomed from the moment we got on the Fitzroy Flyer in Cairns, the guys on the boat are great fun. The staff on the Island go out of their way to help you.
Our ocean view suite was amazing. We left all the windows open at night so we could hear the ocean, not one mosquito or fly in sight. It’s incredible.
It rained most of the time we were there but it was still awesome and it kept the place cool. The walking tracks are wonderful. The view from the summit outstanding. Nudie beach is divine. The smell in the air and in the rainforest is spectacular.
Having a cocktail sitting in the bar pool was fun. They even have a movie theatre, a games room, a kids room, a massage room and a small library.
Last but not least is the beautiful Zephyr Restaurant. The chefs sure know how to make mouth watering food. Try the rib eye with bernaise sauce, it’s divine. Make sure you book a table. The service is excellent. We booked dinner early as we wanted to eat and watch the ocean. The wait staff are really friendly and attentive. The buffet breakfast has a great range of food.
I kept thinking this is an island in the middle of the ocean and everything I need is at my fingertips, even the internet.
Fitzroy Island is paradise and I will definitely be coming back. Thank you everyone for making our stay with you so special!

“Perfect Weekend Getaway!” – 5 stars
We spent two nights on Fitzroy Island. The scenery is spectacular. The facilities are great – the reef is only metres from the shore, even weak swimmers can see it. They have a glass bottomed boat tour, so you can have a guide give more information. The two eateries are excellent and the cocktails are beautiful. I would recommend taking the adventure package and also doing a bushwalk to the summit. Can’t wait to visit the island again!

“Fantastic Fitzroy!!” – 5 stars
This island is amazing. Family with children aged 7 and 9. We stayed for 3 night’s in an Island Suite. Room was clean, spacious (although the kids shared a sofa bed) and balcony 50m from the beach.
Snorkelling was great, straight off the beach in front of the resort as well as at Nudey beach.
We also did the tour to the Turtle Rehab centre. The guide was very knowledgeable and engaging.
We had full buffet breakfast included in the package we purchased. Was good variety of food. We brought food over from the mainland to make lunch in our room to save a bit of $. But ate at Foxy’s for dinner each night. Delicious and large meals and a reasonable variety.
Would definitely recommend this resort!

“Love this laid back paradise” – 5 stars
We stayed here 3 glorious days. It is a low key resort, that was very relaxed, clean and comfortable. As the island is a National Park, there was lot’s of exploring and beautiful walks. Our room was the least expensive, and though it didn’t have a view, it was very comfortable. We spent most of our time snorkeling, kayaking and walking to the many gorgeous spots on the island. Our buffet breakfast each morning, had a good choice of food. We had dinner at Foxys pub, serving good food while watching amazing sunsets.If you are after a comfortable, relaxing place to stay, I would recommend this resort. It seemed to cater very well for families as well.

Fitzroy Island Resort is the PERFECT relaxing getaway! All the staff are beyond friendly and helpful! I booked the Ocean Suite Room and the view was breathtaking! You get to see the ocean waves crash and you have a full range of beautiful tropical plants and palm trees. Puts you in an instant “vacay mode.” At night it was heaven because you could hear the sound of the ocean waves right from your room!!! I really enjoyed the Turtle Rehab Centre Tour, highly recommend! I learned heaps from Jen and it really raised my awareness about the Sea Turtles. They are very passionate and loving for them. Even the ferry staff are very helpful and kind! If you are staying in Cairns you DEFINITELY need to make a trip here and stay for a few nights! I enjoyed my time there and cannot wait to go back!!!

Hiking, Swimming, Eating and Drinking! An exceptional day. Started with a challenging hike to the island summit and then cooled down in the water swimming with sea turtles and beautiful sea life. This was my first trip to the inner reef and it was fantastic!!! Ended the day with drinks and a bite to eat at Foxys. If you are in Cairns for a few days I recommend Fitzroy Island, Green Island and at least one trip to the outer reef. Fitzroy has the best of all worlds b/c it offers hiking as well as swimming.

You can stay at the resort and this was something we wish we had done as we met a few people who were and loved it! There are 2 beaches and as you approach the island the beach to the left is the one to go to. There you will see turtles, rays , black tip sharks and of course coral! Half way up the beach is best place to see the turtles.
