Located some 900 km north of Brisbane, between Mackay and Townsville, the Whitsunday Islands are a group of continental islands off the coast of Queensland, Australia. Constituting their part is Hayman Island, nestled in the Great Barrier Reef and famous for its superior location, elegance and excellent service. A unique five-star resort, Hayman is the only one of Australian islands to be accepted as a member of the Leading Hotels of the World.

A unique destination in itself, Hayman is the most scenic island off Australia's north Queensland coast, ideal for pleasure and romance. Together with Hook Island, Hamilton Island, Daydream Island and Dent Island, it forms the spectacular Whitsunday Islands, renowned for their charming beauty.

In 2001 the new fantastic resort, Hayman Island was unveiled as the culmination of a two-year development program that involved introduction of new levels of accommodation to reflect the relaxed style of the resort. It welcomes its guests from the white sandy bay on the western side, and is the only facility on Hayman Island. Natural beauty of the surroundings blends with the uniquely designed buildings to create the atmosphere of comfort and relaxation. Throughout the resort gentle waterfalls and ponds spread among open air lanais, scenic gardens and spacious walkways.

Hayman Island presents a well-favored resort, comprised of 244 guest rooms, penthouses, suites and a villa, nestled in Palm, Pool, Beach and Lagoon Wings and featuring private balconies and terraces. Comprised of Pool Access, Pool Deluxe and Pool Superior rooms and Pool Suites, the Pool Wing overlooks the renowned Hayman Pool and tropical gardens.
Some rooms offer the view of neighboring Hook Island and the Coral Sea. The Pool Wing is perfect for first-time-visitors to Hayman Island who want to stay close to all amenities and enjoy fascinating views of the pool. Designed for visitors traveling to Hayman Island on a budget, the Palm Wing is located centrally in the resort, featuring Palm Superior rooms. Included in the Lagoon Wing are Lagoon Deluxe and Lagoon Superior rooms, Lagoon Suites and eleven Penthouses, all of them overlooking Lagoon Pool, tropical gardens and tranquil lagoon.

This part is known as the luxurious end of the resort, offering more spacious rooms and suites as compared to those in the Pool Wing. Couples looking for superb accommodations in tranquil surroundings should consider the Beach Wing, comprised of Beach Front rooms and a private Beach Villa facing Hayman Beach. All the rooms and suites are designed as a complement to their lagoon, pool, garden and beach, while the in-room features and services include individually controlled air-conditioning, direct dial ISD telephones with two lines, private fax, cable television, mini refrigerator, safe, personal bar, coffee- and tea-making facilities, ironing board, seven-day laundry and dry cleaning service.
