Cherry, Tiger, Daddy and Me just arrived home for the most amazing 10 days away in tropical paradise… I could not recommend a more incredibly beautiful, relaxed, fun and safe destination for a family holiday, of any age than Hamilton Island on the Whitsundays, Queensland. Daddy and Me have visited Hamilton Island a few times, (before we were parents), and this was by far our favourite experience.
The weather was absolutely perfect – 30 degrees everyday, not too hot and defiantly not too cold for a swim, any time of the day. In fact I packed cardigans thinking the evening might get a little chilli but we never even wore them.
The island was very kids friendly. Cherry and Tiger loved the pool by the beach where they could splash in the shallow waters while I read magazines and Daddy practiced his underwater laps.
Breaky on our balcony with the birds
Down to the pool for a morning swim
Home to our apartment for lunch on the balcony followed by an afternoon nap
Then back down to the beach for a late afternoon swim and sandcastle building
We even walked next door the The Reef View Hotel for a swim in their long infinity pool
Too much fun for this little fishy
We hired a double pram from the ClownFish Kids Club for evening walks to the Marina
We found fabulous family friendly restaurants, a few where kids ate free!
We loved Popeyes Fish and Chips takeaway by the marina but for a special night out we highly recommend Romano’s Italian Restaurant!
Elle’s top pick – Beef Carpaccio
We even caught the shuttle bus up to One Tree Hill for sunset mocktails.
“Let’s take a selfie!”
Tune in next Sunday to see what adventures Daddy and Me got up to while Cherry and Tiger visited The ClownFish Kids Club!
Hi there,
What a beautiful holiday you have had! Thank you for sharing it! I was wondering where did you stay at? I love the view from the balcony! And is the kids club within the accommodation facility or separate? Many thanks,
Zerina
Hi Zerina, we stayed at the Whitsunday Holiday Apartments. The kids club is separate but just a 2 minute walk from where we were staying. The Reef Hotel is also an excellent option which is right next door with the same incredible views. I highly recommend a family trip there! 🙂
