Fodor's Review:

Just 35 minutes by boat from the glitz of the Gold Coast, this ecotourism resort is a haven of peace and harmony. The vision of Olympic athlete Ron Clarke, a long-distance runner, the property has an exceptionally wide selection of sports opportunities: biking, swimming, tennis, rock climbing, baseball, basketball, various water sports, and more. There's also an Aboriginal culture center, a gallery and art studio, a tour desk and a general store, as well as music, games, and Internet rooms. The marine resort area includes deluxe rooms, suites, and two- and four-bedroom lodges (all with kitchenettes and cooking facilities). Some are built over the water so you can fish right off the balcony. The resort's nature cabins were refurbished in 2007.
