Left my heart on Orpheus Island The seaplane drops you at the Island, Aaron meets you with a fresh squeezed juice and knows your name without asking. That is just the start of the most amazing and personal service you will find on the island. The island itself is pristine. Being a national park, the only persons on the island are the small number of guests of the resort and researchers monitoring the health of the reef system. Waking to the birds, fish jumping out of the water and the smell of coffee was divine. The food was very good and plentiful. If there is something you want, just ask and they will do everything they can to provide it. Care to snorkel or dive with giant clams, just ask. The resort has a wonderful boat to take you anywhere you like to go. They also have small "tinnies" that are available to all guests to use at their leisure. They even pack the most amazing picnic lunch for you to take. The rooms are just as welcoming, very private and wonderful views from all. The only negative, leaving!
