Orpheus Island

A private island experience in a secluded, unspoiled tropical paradise awaits at Orpheus Island lodge in the Whitsundays. Stretching across 11km of immaculate turquoise coastline, the island is surrounded by a pristine fringing reef and features a main pavilion bar and alfresco-style dining area, restaurant, day spa and infinity pool. This food lovers' haven means each meal is an event in itself, from gourmet breakfasts, shared tapas-style lunches to memorable degustation dinners; think fresh seasonal produce from the island's own vegetable garden and local seafood delicacies. Start with seared scallops, butternut pumpkin, edamame, jamon serrano and dashi; before venison tenderloin, red cabbage puree, roast plum, sour cherries and young turnips, making sure to leave room for dessert.
