What makes the perfect holiday? That something special. That magical something that lives on in your memory for the rest of your life. That indescribable feeling where years later you still get a warm fuzzy feeling about your holiday.

Long Island Resort in the Whitsundays has all the magic that the holiday maker could ever want.

Long Island Resort does have the usual facilities that one could expect from an award winning 160 room three and a half star island resort. It has restaurants, swimming pools, tennis courts, kids club (4-14 years), activities, bars, nightly entertainment and so much more. Long Islands accommodation enhances the natural ambience of an island setting, we aim to allow privacy and ensure the highest level of service whilst still ensuring an intimate getaway.

Enjoy the magic of nature with 20 km of scenic walking tracks, explore the 2500 acres of national park and palm fringed beaches ideal for all ages and fitness levels. For those who enjoy the great outdoors or simply wish to enjoy the complete Long Island experience, you may wish to completely circumnavigate the Island by foot. You will endure 9 hours of walking/hiking/climbing but the memories will last forever.

As the sun sets behind the mountains of the Conway National Park, its last light shimmers across the water. A truly magical sight through the palm trees and the Resort surrounds. This also heralds the nightly flight of the fruit bats as they momentarily darken the sky at dusk silently flying across the expansive courtyard and off into the night. The outside world is forgotten as you are submersed in natures wonders.

The exotic howling bird, the flightless curlew, another of nights many magical creatures will soon run and prop as it sneaks through the gardens and onto the beach to search for crabs and worms. Occasionally, it lets out a howl that leaves no doubt in your mind that you are certainly holidaying on a magical Island. Then right on cue, the small wallabies come out of the hills and hop along the beach scratching for underground fresh water. This sight is one of great wonderment as usually our wallaby friends are associated with the outback not a magical island setting with palm trees and sandy beaches
