Whitsunday Island, Whitsundays hotel rooms at the Independent

"Triple a+"

"Everyone stresses that you need to keep your doors shut because of the cheeky cockatoos, but no one mentioned to be careful leaving clothing on the balcony. A cockatoo too a bikini top from the drying rack and dropped it on the roof of the restaurant below. Luckily it was able to be retrieved. This should also be mentioned upon check-in as a lot of people were reporting lost clothing and the staff then said, oh yes, they are very cheeky."

"Excellent property with huge rooms, awesome ocean view, complimentary coffee and tea 24/7, lovely pool, outstanding location and A+++ staff! Will come again! A+ hotel!"

"Beautiful, relaxing idyllic stay. Food was good. Staff were lovely. Pool was nice. Loved the setting and nature. The hammocks were a nice touch. Lots of activities. Bush walks were fun. Bedding etc was very clean. Room 15 was very musty so had to keep aircon on at all times. "
