Whitsunday Wonderland.
Australia’s Great Barrier Reef is one of the world’s must-sees. If anyplace justifies a splurge, this is it. And for years, actually decades, the big-ticket, private-island splurge has been Hayman Island.
But now, there’s a new sybaritic paradise in the Whitsundays that makes Hayman look like a bargain. It’s called Qualia and it’s on Hamilton Island. It features individual pavilions – starting at AUD$1,400 a night – a wealth of watersports, and two excellent restaurants.
Meals are included; alcohol isn’t. And it you want to take the kids, head for Hayman. No one under 18 may stay here. Okay by us. Information and reservations are available at http://www.qualia.com.au
