Great Keppel Island Holiday Village Review

Great Keppel Island Holiday Village is located in a garden setting less than a minute's walk to two great swimming beaches. Accommodations include twin or double rooms with shared bathrooms, twin or double canvas tents erected on timber decks, and en-suite cabins, sleeping four. Also available are two self-contained houses suitable for families of up to six people. The private two-bedroom Dolphin House has a queen-size bed in one room and a double bed and bunks in the other. The two-story, solar powered Keppel House is set among large shade trees on the southern end of Fisherman's Beach, and sleeps up to six. Verandas off the spacious lounge room offer plenty of shade, and there is a barbecue outside. All linen is provided (but bring your towel), as is snorkeling gear to use during your stay. There is a fully equipped communal kitchen for those in the tents and cabins, with gas stoves, refrigerators, and microwave available, as well as a barbecue. Basic grocery items, such as milk, bread, soft drinks, and some food items, are available to buy. Kayaking and snorkeling tours are offered. There is no smoking in the village area.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
