For those looking to experience the natural treasure that is the Great Barrier Reef, where better to stay than on the reef itself at Lizard Island Resort. Fringed by no less than 24 powdery white sand beaches and colourful coral reefs that are sanctuary to a spectacular diversity of marine life, this secluded island outpost is idyllic. Decorated in pure white, its rooms, suites and villas are beautifully understated, with private decks overlooking the ocean or gardens.

Naturally, the focus here is on the reef with its schools of tropical fish, manta rays and turtles. Complimentary snorkelling gear, motorised dinghy’s, kayaks and SUP boards are included, but you can also enjoy beach picnics and nature walks around the island. Dining is one of Lizard Island’s many pleasures, with the accent on fresh seafood and superb local produce. Facilities, which include a state-of-the-art fitness centre, tennis courts and spa, are everything you would expect at the Great Barrier Reef’s most sought-after address.

“PROFESSIONAL, PERSONAL – AND A REAL PLEASURE”
From the moment we got in touch, everything felt smooth and well looked after. The team were not only professional and thorough – providing tailored suggestions with clear costings – but also genuinely friendly. Even after we returned, a follow-up email (and a bottle of wine!) showed just how thoughtful Ultimate Travel really is. Nothing was too much trouble. We already have more trips booked and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.

“YES TO ULTIMATE – AND YES AGAIN”
This was our second big trip with The Ultimate Travel Company – and we’d happily use them again and again. The customer service is excellent: they really listen to what you want and make it happen. Their on-the-ground support, wherever you’re headed, is just as strong. Everything was seamless. Highly recommend.

The itinerary was spot on. Claire really listened and understood the kind of holiday I wanted – from the hotels to the pace of the trip. The team on the ground were exceptional: friendly, efficient, and always one step ahead, helping with everything from flight check-ins to tax-free procedures at the end. The guides were knowledgeable and genuinely helpful. I had an amazing time. Thank you!
