Overview

Main Information

qualia is a unique, world class luxury resort in Australia.

Occupying a sun-drenched location on the northern-most tip of Hamilton Island, it looks out to Coral Sea waters – home to the Great Barrier Reef – and vistas of mesmerising calm.

qualia has been meticulously considered to relax the mind yet completely spoil the senses, offering 60 exquisitely appointed pavilions and an exclusive three-bedroom residence that sit in perfect harmony with the rare, natural beauty of the Whitsunday Islands.

Two exclusive restaurants provide the ideal stage to whet the appetite with cuisine both fresh and innovative; two climate-controlled infinity edge pools (one at the Long Pavilion and the other at Pebble Beach) provide the ultimate in liquid refreshment, and Spa qualia offers a luxurious menu of local and international indulgent treatments.

Dining

Dining

Enjoy the ultimate in fine dining at the Long Pavilion, or a more relaxed and casual experience at Pebble Beach.

Long Pavilion is set overlooking the Coral Sea, serving the like of succulent terrine of Barossa Valley chicken, crispy skin coral trout, luscious crayfish cannelloni or a zingy citrus ravioli with passion fruit.

Pebble Beach is qualia’s exclusive venue for a memorable luncheon on the water’s edge. Specialising in relaxing, casual dining at its best, the Pebble Beach lunch menu includes a tempting mezze platter for two to share, club or rib-eye sandwiches and refreshing seafood salads. Linger into the afternoon with a signature qualia cocktail laced with tropical fruit.

Sample fresh and innovative food at qualia’s two exclusive restaurants, Pebble Beach and the Long Pavilion, which provide the ideal stage upon which the Executive Chef delivers exceptional culinary talents.
