Whitsunday Sands Resort is uniquely located on its own private peninsula, by the turquoise waters of the Great Barrier Reef. It offers all guests private access to 2 separate, magnificent beaches. On the eastern side of the resort is Horseshoe Bay, rated as one of the best beaches in Australia, while on the western side is the picturesque Greys Bay. You can enjoy watching the sunrise and sunset over the water on the main land, from the resort.

It was a comfortable stay for the purpose of our trip (stayover en route from Townsville to Mackay). The room would have been too small for a longer stay with my children of 16+. Very clean. Friendly and helpful staff. Beautiful location. Parking close to accommodation.

    The location was fantastic, right on the beach with views from the room we booked. The other rooms have lovely tropical garden views, so that's not bad, either. There is a path out the front, so you can walk up and down the bay or do parkrun there if you wish. Very quiet location and easy to access. Comfortable beds and kitchen to prepare your own meals.

    Although the apartments are older, they were spotlessly clean. It was lovely to have a separate bedroom. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking. It was in a fantastic location, a 2 minute walk to the beach. I wish we had more days available to stay longer. The staff were very helpful in assisting us to change our booking because of Cyclone Jasper. We hope to visit again soon.

    The size of the cabin suited our needs and it was pet friendly. The bathroom was well fitted and spacious. The bed was comfortable but needs a fan to get cooled from the air conditioner in the next room. The lined was fresh and clean. The kitchen was completely stocked and suitable for cooking own meals.
