Bedarra Island - Great Barrier Reef, Australia - 5 Star Luxury Resort

Bedarra Island villa

ROOMS & SUITES: 16


On Bedarra, the emphasis is on quiet contemplation and total relaxation. Bedarra Island is an indulgent tropical private hideaway, off the coast of Cairns in Australia.


A maximum of just 32 guests are accommodated in 16 secluded villas, each hidden in the rainforest, only minutes from the beach. Superbly appointed, each has a separate living area, spacious bathroom and king size bed. On the balcony, guests can relax in a hammock and contemplate the beauty and calm of this elegant retreat. The cuisine is exquisite. The tantalising menus change daily, with an emphasis on fresh seafood and exotic tropical produce. A popular lunch option is a romantic beach picnic with a gourmet hamper. While the focus is on peace and relaxation, there are also many activities to enjoy, such as catamaran sailing, paddle–skiing, fishing, snorkelling and diving day trips to the Great Barrier Reef, as well as motorised dinghies for exploring the island's picturesque, private beaches. Guests can also unwind over a relaxing massage on the beach or in the privacy of their villa.
