Wilson is a next level piece of paradise if you are looking to disconnect.

10.0

Wilson Island is a next level experience if you are looking to disconnect - no wifi, no 4g. The food was delicous, timing of meals well thought through, the staff very friendly and helpful but left you to your own company

For me the beds are too soft but this was a minor issue

The best down to earth luxury

9.0

It’s just the most stunning location you can imagine. We were there at the beginning of the breading seasons for turtles and different birds which was brilliant. You do have to have strong ears at night to accommodate their cacophonies. Liam, our cook, outdid himself with every meal, really impressive making the experience top notch. And the tents are very comfortable.

The Heron Island organization seems biting itself in the tale every once in a while. The restrictive boat schedule and excessive cost of alternative transportation counter the idea of accommodating luxury travelers. Heron Island staff if doing their best however to patch up these managerial problems.

Paradise Found.

10.0

The fantastic staff, Nick, Beth and Ben, really looked after everybody, and no request was too big or too small. The location and the seclusion were super relaxing. The snorkelling was unbelievable!

Personally, I loved everything about the property. It might not be for everyone, as you do have communal showers and toilets due to their commitment to preserving the environment. The benefit of which is seeing the abundance of wildlife on the island.
