As the legendary poet and musician Orpheus charmed all gods, mortals and animals with his magical lyre, so Orpheus Island will enchant you with its beauty and tranquillity pervading all around.
Nestled in a sheltered bay on an island, an hour's flight from Cairns and surrounded by breathtaking reefs, this privately owned resort exudes privacy, seclusion and total relaxation throughout. Of the twenty-seven rooms, two bungalows are appointed in a Mediterranean style and possess their own luxurious spa enclosed in a courtyard garden, whilst six luxury villas are secluded in a lush forested hillside and allow you the privacy to indulge in your oversized Jacuzzi!
A fragrant curtain of bougainvillaea and palm trees separates the lodge from the allure of an enchanting sea and Orpheus Island serves as a stepping stone to an underwater paradise. Dip in and out of the two swimming pools, make the most of the heated spa and enjoy your `Discover Scuba' complimentary enticement to the underwater world. With no televisions or telephones, every hour of glorious sunshine is there for you to experience the wonders of seeing dolphins, giant manta ray and humpback whales at certain times of the year. |
