What makes the perfect holiday? That something special. That magical something that lives on in your memory for the rest of your life. That indescribable feeling where years later you still get a warm fuzzy feeling about your holiday.

Long Island Resort in the Whitsunday’s has all the magic that the holiday maker could ever want.

Long Island Resort does have the usual facilities that one could expect from an award winning 160 room three and a half star island resort. It has restaurants, swimming pools, tennis courts, kids club (4-14 years), activities, bars, nightly entertainment and so much more. Long Island’s accommodation enhances the natural ambience of an island setting, we aim to allow privacy and ensure the highest level of service whilst still ensuring an intimate getaway. 

Enjoy the magic of nature with 20 km of scenic walking tracks, explore the 2500 acres of national park and palm fringed beaches – ideal for all ages and fitness levels. For those who enjoy the great outdoors or simply wish to enjoy the complete Long Island experience, you may wish to completely circumnavigate the Island by foot. You will endure 9 hours of walking/hiking/climbing but the memories will last forever. 

As the sun sets behind the mountains of the Conway National Park, its last light shimmers across the water. A truly magical sight through the palm trees and the Resort surrounds. This also heralds the nightly flight of the fruit bats as they momentarily darken the sky at dusk silently flying across the expansive courtyard and off into the night. The outside world is forgotten as you are submersed in nature’s wonders.

The exotic howling bird, the flightless curlew, another of nights many magical creatures will soon run and prop as it sneaks through the gardens and onto the beach to search for crabs and worms. Occasionally, it lets out a howl that leaves no doubt in your mind that you are certainly holidaying on a magical Island. Then right on cue, the small wallabies come out of the hills and hop along the beach scratching for underground fresh water. This sight is one of great wonderment as usually our wallaby friends are associated with the outback not a magical island setting with palm trees and sandy beaches.

No Whitsunday getaway is complete without enjoying the Great Barrier Reef. Long Island boasts coral reef only 150 metres off shore. Snorkels, Fins and other equipment is available, a sight not to be missed! You may chose to enjoy your complimentary pool dive, for a small fee you can dive accompanied by a dive instructor on Long Island’s own reef and before you know it, you’re back in the hammock again with yet another magical memory.

From the young to the young at heart, Long Island Resort caters for everyone. We pride ourselves on the suitability of our facilities for all age groups, with an extensive range of daily activities in which to participate. Alternatively, indulge yourself by lazing on the beach in front of your room and soak in your surroundings – a cocktail from our pool bar really does enhance this experience! 

Long Island Resort boasts a comprehensive range of water sports, parasailing, jet skiing, catamaran sailing, glass bottom water bikes, water-skiing, scuba dive activities, fishing trips and Island cruises are all available. 

Indulge in an island picnic utilizing the 20kms of bush tracks, our water sport team will even arrange for a picnic hamper to be waiting for you on your arrival at the secluded Sandy Bay.

Long Island Resort – Club Croc has experienced a cocktail of name changes, however excellence in product and service has remained consistent. Since 1934, the original resort where Club Crocodile is now situated, was simply called Happy Bay. Aptly named after the Bay that laps its palm-fringed shore. In the early 80’s, the resort was sold to a Gold Coast tourist entrepreneur who renovated and renamed this magical place “Whitsunday 100”. Not long after Contiki Tours purchased this magical piece of heaven on earth and changed its name to “Contiki”, then a couple of years later, after spending over 30 million dollars on expansion, it relaunched itself as “The Island”. Not long after this, new management was appointed and the once Happy Bay became known as “Radisson Long Island”. In January 1994, Club Crocodile purchased this magical Island resort and named it Long Island – Club Croc and its charm has been taking guests’ breath away ever since.

First time visitors experience amazement at this idyllic location and return guests experience continued satisfaction. After a holiday at Long Island Resort – Club Croc, you will leave with unforgettable memories of beautiful views, food and service to last the rest of your life. 

From international guests to those a little closer to home, experience the real magic Long Island Resort, Whitsunday’s Best Value Resort has to offer.
