Discover your itinerary

Day 1

After a 15-minute helicopter ride from Hamilton Island Airport, land on Hayman Island.
Champagne in hand, make your way to the luxurious Hayman Beach House. 

Once all settled in your home away from home for the next 5 nights, why not pop the bottle of Dom Perignon to celebrate the start of an amazing stay at Hayman Island by InterContinental?  

Your late lunch awaits, head to your private cabana by the iconic Hayman Pool. From oysters to Fish tacos and poke bowls, indulge in California-Mexican cuisine prepared by the Chefs at Aqua. Spend the afternoon basking in the sun or in the privacy of your poolside cabana, and dive into the shades of blue of the iconic Hayman Pool. 

End your day at Pacific and enjoy the uninterrupted views across the coral sea from the restaurant’s ocean-facing dining room.  

Day 2

Enjoy a gourmet breakfast in Pacific then head to Hayman Spa for your Hayman Experience. 

Travel deeper into relaxation during this bespoke 4-hour spa journey for two in the Bamboo loft, giving you access to your own bath and steam room. After indulging in both facilities, your journey continues with a soothing foot soak, before immersing in an energising dry body exfoliation designed to improve blood flow and elasticity. Transition your body into deep relaxation with a bespoke massage experience tailored to your individual needs and with your choice of facial, pedicure or spa hand therapy.  

Following your spa treatment, we invite you to indulge in a pan-Asian lunch served in your private cabana on the beach and by the infinity pool.  

As the sun sets over the Whitsunday Islands, embark on a sailing boat and cruise around Hayman Island sparkling in hand: the perfect end of a day in the heart of the Great Barrier Reef.  

Day 3

Your next adventure awaits. Get ready for a fabulous day aboard your private helicopter. The Best of Both Worlds tour will take you for a fly over Heart Reef before landing at “Reef World” where you will snorkel. Before heading back to Hayman Island, land on the luminescent Whitehaven Beach for refreshments and for a swim in the pristine waters of the Whitsundays. 

After a lazy afternoon back in your Hayman Beach House, meet in Bar Fifty for your Chef’s Table Dining Experience. This unique dining experience will place you in the heart of the resort’s Main Kitchen where you will enjoy a front row seat to an artful culinary performance and a five-course degustation menu matched with premium wines.  

Day 4

After a gourmet breakfast, head to the spa to “rejuvenate in paradise”. This 3.5-hour exquisite journey in the Bamboo Loft will start with a salt exfoliation followed by a soothing body massage and a pure radiance facial with enriching masks and tension relieving massage. This experience will send you both to a place of complete relaxation.  

Complete your day with an afternoon in one of the cabanas or by the pool in the Hayman Beach House.  

Why not having a glass of the Penfolds Shiraz Grange as the sun sets over the Coral Sea? 

Day 5

Get ready for an amazing day on the Great Barrier Reef. Head to the marina and board Ocean Free, your private yacht for the day. The team will take you for a cruise around the Whitsunday Islands, stopping at the best snorkeling locations of the area. 

Finish your day by the iconic Hayman Pool for a dinner Under The Stars, a five-course menu with matching wines will be served by your private waiter in one of the four poolside cabanas. It is the ultimate Hayman experience.  

End your evening a glass of champagne in hand as you raise a toast to InterContinental’s 75th anniversary and the wonderful stay you’ve had in the heart of the Great Barrier Reef.  

Tomorrow, as you say farewell to Hayman Island from your private helicopter, soak up the views of Australia’s most iconic private island resort and its surroundings.
