11/10 this place is amazing! Of all the things in such an idyllic, serene, relaxing, secluded and beautiful place - the food was our highlight! Our activities focused around getting back for meals! Friendly and welcoming staff provided great service without being overbearing. We truly switched off for a few days and it was worth every cent.

Our stay at the Elysian was an unforgettable, all-inclusive, eco-friendly experience. Nestled on a pristine island, this hidden gem offers sustainable luxury surrounded by the best of what the Australia's Golden Coast nature has to offer.
We stayed in thoughtfully designed eco-bungalows with stunning water views of Paradise Bay. We enjoyed farm-to-table dining, relaxed by the excellent pool overlooking the water, and immersed in unique eco-friendly activities. One of our highlights was the island hike that took us to a hidden beach on the other side of Long island.
From guided snorkeling to kayaking to paddleboarding to sunrise yoga sessions, this eco-lodge offers something for everyone.
Thank you to ALL the fantastic staff at the Elysian that made our stayunforgetable.

Superb property in stunning location. Staff were amazing. Villas lovely. Only issue was getting there from airport. Expedia web site said 18 min drive implying you could get a taxi. But only options were helicopter or boat, and both were expensive and in addition to the holiday cost.

A very relaxed week spent here. Food was great, staff friendly and attended to our every need. We really felt spoiled and pampered. Our stay was in july and the pool was too cold for swimming as was the ocean ( for me )
Daily yoga, walks on the island and excursions filled our time. A must see is Whitehaven beach. A fantastic week.

We felt like we were staying with friends on their private island oasis. Charlie and his team including the beautiful Alice, Monica and B were more like new friends than resort staff. The food was amazing, the company of other guests was lovely around the Firepit each night. It was so good to simply unplug technology and relax and unwind in nature. Thank you, we will definitely be back.

What a beautiful location! The staff were so friendly and considerate, providing amazing service and making sure we were comfortable and enjoying our stay. The room was immaculate and the food was absolutely amazing. The chefs were very considerate to any food intolerances we had. A lot of time was spent in the pool, and we'd love to come back sometime out of stinger season to do some snorkeling! The limited number of villas in the resort made the experience very intimate and secluded. Elysian was the highlight of our honeymoon and we will definitely be back, we highly recommend staying here!
