Happy visitors

Karen L

Fabulous service right from the pick up at the jetty. Plenty of time to enjoy the beachside cabanas before snorkelling or kayaking in the crystal clear bay. Perfect for working up an appetite for the scrumptious lunch!! Definitely a must do on your trip to East Arnheim land!

Geoff W

This is an outstanding place, with breathtaking views and utter tranquility. Ideal for a ‘get away’, retreat or a place to wind down. Lots to do and see – and the meals were chef quality. Warning – this is remote – off grid living, at its best.

Jim B

We had the best day! Staff were so friendly and the facilities were great. The kids spent all day snorkelling and kayaking and have already said it was their favourite part of our holiday.

Nicole E

My friend and I were fortunate enough to stay the night at Banubanu resort! The highlights were definitely the food, strong cocktails, friendly staff and island dog. A big bonus is we survived swimming in the ocean! They also provide snorkels to hire. I definitely recommend staying the night, the day trip isn’t long enough

Katherine I

What a lovely place to come and visit. We came for a day trip but we will definitely book a holiday here next time it is worth every cent. Food is amazing as is the service.
