All the included activities

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Green Island Resort. The room was beautifully furnished and very comfortable, and the restaurant surpassed our expectations. All the included activities made the package great value. We especially enjoyed the snorkelling and night time nature walks. On top of all this, the service was exceptional. I would definitely recommend Green Island Resort to couples and families.

GREAT PLACE TO STAY!

We had an AWESOME holiday on Green Island. The staff were great. The room was very good. Would defiantly recommend it(and have already started) to everyone. GREAT PLACE TO STAY! It was the high light of our trip. To snorkel off the beach and see the GB reef and fish, how could you not enjoy it. You also spot turtles swimming by. And you are guaranteed to see NEMO! And the FREE drinks at 5.15 each night, PRICELESS! Go Green Island Resort, YOU ROCK!

Amazing

We could not recommend Green Island more highly. The wildlife, facilities and staff were all amazing.

Posted By Kaitlyn Hare

Wonderful location

Wonderful location, best place to snorkel, great staff. Nice room v comfy great air con. A little tired, but the location is so wonderful i would have stayed in a grass hut.
Probably more food options would be ideal, however the food we had was great. Absolutely great staff who were helpful. Once things pick up hopefully, an option for food other than burgers and big mains would be ideal.
