Castaways Resort and Spa is located in Mission Beach, a sleepy seaside village just 90-minutes’ drive south of Cairns. The best way to access Mission Beach is via the Spirit of Queensland rail, which stops at nearby Tully Railway Station, or via the Cairns Airport. Castaways is able to organise shared and private resort transfers from both of these locations.
Choose from a wide range of accommodation: 47 luxury beachfront rooms and self-contained apartments, a private beachside villa, 18 lush rainforest rooms and a luxury three-bedroom apartment spread over three centrally located properties. All rooms located within the beachfront property other than the hotel rooms feature a private balcony or garden patio with stunning views of the Coral Sea out to Dunk Island. All rooms located within the rainforest property are surrounded by lush rainforest gardens, providing privacy and serenity.
Look no further than BUKO restaurant and cocktail bar for a taste of tropical North Queensland you will not soon forget. Overlooking the beach, BUKO uses the freshest, locally sourced produce to create bold flavours and unique dishes that capture the atmosphere of this special place. Specialties include seafood linguine, Dunk Island trout, crispy skin infinity blue barramundi and more.
You don’t need to leave Castaways to have a fun and relaxing holiday. Treat yourself to a feast for the senses at the onsite BUKO restaurant and cocktail bar. Enjoy a refreshing dip in one of three pools: a 25 metre lap pool, a beachfront leisure pool and a rainforest lagoon. Wander down to the beach to sunback or swim in the azure waters. Anything else you may need, just ask a friendly member of staff.
