    Amazingly friendly and helpful managers and staff. The focus is clearly on guest's and visitor's experience of this beautiful island rather than on making money from them. The village has a relaxed atmosphere where you can be as social or as introverted as you like. No tired, fake smiles there, just genuine people who love working in paradise and want you to enjoy it too. Can't rate this place highly enough.

    The location and the owner - Geoff - was exceptional. It was such a nice feeling staying in this place and the people were amazing!! Also loved the pick up/drop off from the ferry and the snorkelling gear that you could borrow made the holiday easy and care free!

    Our stay at Great Keppel Island Holiday Village was absolutely amazing and exceeded all our expectations! The managers, Jeppe and Anthony, were incredibly kind and attentive, making sure we felt welcome every step of the way. Their team of volunteers was also wonderful—friendly, approachable, and full of good energy. We were impressed by how clean and organized everything was. The team was constantly ensuring the facilities were spotless and well-maintained, which made our stay even more comfortable. On top of that, we loved having access to the snorkeling gear—it added an extra layer of fun to our experience. We were invited to join yoga classes, share meals, go to the beach in their cars, and so much more. It truly felt like being part of a little community rather than just a guest. We made friendships with the volunteers and shared beautiful moments together. The level of care and hospitality from the entire team was exceptional, and we left with nothing but gratitude. I only wish we could have stayed longer! Without a doubt, I’ll be recommending this place to everyone. Thank you for such a magical experience!

    We stayed in a glamping tent, and the whole experience was a bit like staying in an outdoor youth hostel. The location is very good and the grounds are beautiful, lots of trees and birds, easy access to restaurants. The hosts are exceptional. The atmosphere is very friendly and casual.

    Nothing - I didn't want to leave !!

    Very relaxed and friendly budget resort on Great Keppel Island. We stayed in one of the onsite 'eco glamping' (my term not theirs) tents and it was fantastic. Anthony and Jappa (pronounced Yappa) were both very nice guys, nothing was too much trouble, lots of helpful suggestions. Free snorkeling gear for the length of your stay and lots of info. Good communal kitchen facilities, with ample fridge and freezer space. Adequate toilet and bathroom facilities. Although these facilities are older they are kept extremely clean and were a pleasure to use. Located a very short walk to the main resort entertainment hub of the island.

    Shared bathroom wasn't for me but hey you can't have everything I would book a room with cooking facilities and toilet next time round . I'm more of a glamping than camping gal lol!

    The island blew our minds. Beaches were out of this world. Very relaxed atmosphere 😌 we booked with intentions of trying something new to us so we Shared the kitchen and shared toilet with shower facilities this was a first for our family and it was an experience , very chilled vibe though . Room was clean beds comfy couldn't complain. Lazy days lovely. Very quiet and Lovely staff very helpful . Will definitely be returning for a longer stay.
