Stay from $115 per night (Sunday to Thursday, two-night minimum), including tour discount, a bottle of wine and a whale-watching gift pack.
The property features a heated outdoor pool, sauna and day spa.

Cruise Whitsundays has recommenced daily departures to Hardy Reef, using its Heart Pontoon, which has been thoroughly refurbished after facing 11-metre waves and strong winds during Tropical Cyclone Debbie.
The refurbishment of Cruise Whitsundays’ other pontoon, Reefworld, is continuing.
The cyclone apparently hasn’t scared off the star attractions at Hardy Reef. Chip the Turtle, George the Queensland Grouper and Wally and Maggie, the two maori wrasses have all been seen by dive crew around the pontoon.
Guests can still expect to snorkel amongst the colourful corals and abundant marine life.
