1. The beauty of the Whitsundays

No matter the time of year, the Whitsundays is always magnificent—bursting with colours, laid-back vibes and glorious sunshine. Come to town during winter to enjoy endless days of blue skies and glassy waters, or drop by over summer for non-stop tropical vibes. Every month of the year brings its own unique beauty, which needs to be experienced to be truly believed.

One of the Whitsunday’s most beautiful residents, Whitehaven Beach, has even been dubbed the most picturesque stretch of sand on the globe when it was named the winner of TripAdvisor’s ‘Travellers Choice Best Beach in the World 2021’. Now, that’s the type of beauty that deserves a spot on your bucket list.

2. A bucket-list destination

The title of ‘Best Beach’ isn’t the only accolade the Whitsundays has under its belt. In fact, our region has attracted awards and recognition from across the globe. People now travel far and wide to experience the Whitsunday Islands for themselves, and that’s seen us ranked as number one in the ‘Top 5 Islands in Australia and the South Pacific.’ It’s the type of place that you will remember visiting for years to come.

3. Memorable experiences

As well as being a bucket-list destination in itself, the Whitsundays also offers an abundance of must-do experiences for everyone. Whether you’re an adrenaline-junkie looking for your next thrill or you prefer to do things a little more slow-paced, we’ve got something for you. 

How does scuba-diving on the Great Barrier Reef sound? Perhaps you’d prefer to go for a hit of golf at Hamilton Island Golf Club— the only 18-hole championship golf course on its own island in Australia? Or maybe you want to spend your afternoons watching the sunset over glistening blue waters with a cocktail in hand? However you choose to spend your time at WAHI, you’re destined to leave with a stack of memories to last a lifetime.

One of the best parts about travelling is having your loved ones by your side to experience it all with you. The beauty of staying at WAHI is that you’ll have room for everyone! Our self-contained apartments each sleep up to five people, with a great open-plan living space and balcony to enjoy time together. You’ve also got the option of hanging out around the pool for a lazy day in the sun or whipping up a feast for the family in your fully-equipped kitchen. There’s something to please everyone!
