We loved our stay despite all the rain. There was lots to do while we waited for the rain to move out which it never did so unfortunately we never got to do any excursions but lots of walks around the property and eating out.

What a wonderful, unique property. We loved Hamilton Islands, and Palm Bungalows has such a charm, making it feel even more special. We had heavy rain at night so this felt very tropical.

We stayed in the bungalows. They were no frills but met our needs. We had a maintenance issue that took a couple of days to resolve but they did fix it. The staff was nice, a little frantic at times but fun. Definitely rent a cart (buggy) and make restaurant reservations in advance or there wont be any when you get there. The Wallaby's grazed just feet from our front porch. Once in a lifetime!!!

Lovely island but felt a bit too restory for our liking. Food options limited and average for price paid. Everything looks fake and Disney-esque. Limited tour options (we came for diving and there were no diving excursions for the full 4 days we were there). All tours very expensive and the one boat one we did was average. On the other hand, all staff were friendly and helpful and the room was nice.

This place truly is one out of the movies. Heaven on earth. Bungalows and villas right on the beach. The view over Palm Bay is to die for. Food was five star although you have to pay for breakfast which was a bit steep. We don’t usually return to the same place for holidays because we like to experience new places but we will be going back to this one. It is sensational.

The room could have benefited from a lounge, there’s certainly enough room for one. Otherwise an excellent alternative choice to a hotel room.

Great Break
First time to Hamilton Island and we were impressed and had a great week rest. We had a Bungalow and it’s a very spacious and has all you need. I little dated but clean and would book again. The resort would be expensive if you ate out 3 meals a day but because there is a very good IGA on island, plan well and enjoy all the facilities without breaking the bank. The weather was outstanding and we will be back.

Beware: Smokers are an issue in these rooms. You’re so close to your neighbors that if they are smokers you might end up being trapped in your room to avoid their smoke clouds. I will not stay in these rooms again.
