Orpheus Island Blogs

Leave the hustle of everyday life behind as you step aboard the helicopter for the short flight to another world - the beautiful island of Orpheus. A tropical paradise where warm turquoise water gently laps the palest of white sand beaches, where emerald green palm trees wave gently in the ocean breeze and where the underwater world is as spectacular as the one above. Orpheus Island Lodge is an island-hideaway that gives unrivalled and privileged access to the Great Barrier Reef. Just 14 suites lie scatted across the resort, each boasting an exceptional, full-frontal ocean view. Simple, white pavilions peek out from the lush, tropical forest which covers more than 1,000 hectares of national park, promising serene sanctuaries in which to unwind and relax. Every stay at Orpheus includes three gourmet meals daily, a selection of fine Australian wine, beers and spirits, plus soft beverages and Orpheus signature experiences. Paddleboards, kayaks, dinghies, and snorkelling equipment are all complimentary for guests during their stay. Walking trails weave around the island for those looking for respite from the beach, but there’s also a library, games room, and a sparkling infinity pool. Gwandalan is the exceptional day spa, and in addition to the included experiences, there is an extensive menu of fabulous adventures including diving, fishing, helicopter tours, and eco experiences for guests to enjoy.
