Bedarra Island Resort

Great Barrier Reef, Tropical North Queensland Australia

When you simply do not wish to be found, when you need to escape and unwind, there is no better place to disappear than Bedarra. Bedarra is an all-inclusive, private, tropical haven – Australia's most unique resort, and the ultimate in barefoot luxury.

Bedarra comprises just twelve private villas hidden amongst 45 hectares of tropical rainforest, offering solitude, privacy and sublime views over the turquoise waters of the Great Barrier Reef. With a maximum of 24 guests at the resort at any time, you are guaranteed a sanctuary of seclusion, solitude and relaxation.

The open terrace restaurant, bar and lounge are the heart and soul of Bedarra, where guests converge to indulge in a delicious and ever-changing menu or at the legendary open bar. An exquisite menu (that changes daily) is matched only by the sublime beauty of uninhabited beaches fringed by lush rainforest.

We pride ourselves on offering unique experiences without equal. Enjoy a candlelit dinner for two on your own private beach, pack a gourmet hamper in your own dinghy for a romantic picnic on one of the nearby deserted islands or book the entire resort with a group of friends or family for a bespoke tropical island experience you will remember forever.

Bedarra’s philosophy is centred on relaxation however we also offer a number of less sedentary activities including sea kayaks, stand-up paddle boards, snorkelling, fishing, tennis and self-guided interactive walks through the verdant rainforest. For the more adventurous, personalised trips to the outer Great Barrier Reef or Deep Sea Fishing Charters can be arranged.

Bedarra is situated 10 kilometres off the coast from Mission Beach in Tropical North Queensland (approx. 140 km south of Cairns). Road transfers from Cairns take approximately 2hrs, with daily launch transfers from Mission Beach to Bedarra. Alternatively, scenic 45 minute heli-transfers are available from Cairns airport directly to our beachside heli-pad.
