Overview & Features

7 Samarinda Drive, North Stradbroke Island, Point Lookout, Australia

Whalewatch Ocean Beach Resort

A statement hotel perched along the spectacular shores of Point Lookout, Whalewatch Ocean Beach Resort redefines coastal opulence. With commanding views that stretch from the golden sands of Main Beach to the horizon of the Coral Sea, guests are greeted by a stunning lobby that melds polished stone with subtle coastal motifs - the first hint of luxury where nature and comfort intertwine. As you step inside, your senses ignite with the fresh ocean breeze that wafts through expansive glass doors; the large, airy common areas pulse with relaxed elegance, while curated art installations capture the essence of Stradbroke Island's natural beauty.
