I felt very sorry for the staff. They were overworked, inexperienced but tried hard. The dining options were very limited and usually had long waiting times. A shuttle service to the spa villas at the top of the resort would have made getting children, strollers, aged a lot easier on such hot and humid days.

Mediocre restaurants and uncomfortable beds
We were extremely excited for this trip, but unfortunately the resort is just mediocre. We stayed in the villa #614 (privately owned and administered by the resort) and, while we'll thought out, we had to contend with some of the worst mattresses we had ever experienced in our lives (think a 15yo mid-level Ikea mattress). The couch was also in a terrible state, so we may have been unlucky there. The it comes the restaurants, and we tried all three. Dune (the more expensive one) was pretty adequate, but the other two were not. Mediocre breakfast, domino's-like pizza, and it ended up taking up some time to find a few good dishes (Onion rings, Korean chicken, nachos and fish and chips at Sand and Wood). Finally, the pools were permanently cloudy with people behaving like animals without any interference from resort personnel. It is easy to say that it is not really worth the price.

K’gari means paradise and is aptly named.
This was a wonderful place to stay. It’s set in native bushland, with lots of boardwalks and formed tracks through the property. We enjoyed sitting on the veranda watching birds and lizards, swimming in the lovely pools and watching the sunsets. There are also a number of excursions to explore the island from the property, and a small shop with plenty of supplies. Highly recommended!

We have been going to Fraser for many years & were lucky enough to spend many of our visits there when it was privately owned. Since it has changed hands we’ve been quite disappointed with how they’ve changed it. The number of staff & level of service has diminished quite dramatically & the food selections are disappointing, there is only so many burgers ect one can eat, the buffet dinner that used to be in what was the Maheno restaurant was much better & I think the people of Hervey Bay would miss the once a week seafood extravaganza. It really is a shame when big companies ruin things that have been so successful in private hands, I don’t understand why they would change things that work?

Gorgeous piece of paradise is Frazer island. The hotel at this moment is not a resort. The lack of staff makes it really difficult for guests to have a resort experience. Boat tours are all cancelled (Although the website says sold out) because there are no workers, Spa is closed cause there are no workers. Restaurants closed because there are no workers or the hotel doesn't wanna pay Sundays or bak holidays rates. Either way the experience is the same for guests, poor. Frazer Island makes it up in behalf of the hotel......
