A time to be had by all. Barramundi – Mackerel – views to die for, but most of all the hospitality is beyond measure – “World Class”

I think you have created an amazing oasis, so far away from life’s mainstream. Fascinating aboriginal art, beautiful bay and water activities plus a lovely climate mean that this must be on of the best (if not the best) holiday resort in Australia.
Melbourne, Victoria, July 2007"
Congrats Bruce for your foresight in building here. Not even Shakespeare could find the right words to describe the combination of beauty and tranquilty.
Balwyn, Vic, July 2007"
We had a wonderful time over the last four days. It was amazing to see the vastness of this Kimberley Region. Photographs can’t capture the beauty. The individual attention we had from the crew was most appreciated……..Luckily we’ve experienced the No. 1 eco resort in the world!

Every once in a while you find a little piece of heaven on earth. Faraway Bay is that place. Perfect. I want to tell the world about this place but don’t want to in case it gets spoilt. Please take care of this faraway place until I come back.

I had a dream…..today a reality…. tomorrow a memory; it is here – Faraway Bay – an oasis in the remote bush with convivial hosts, hostesses and fellow guests, gourmet meals, perfect accommodation.

We came not knowing and without expectation. We leave refreshed and with a deep feeling of satisfaction of the things we’ve seen, of the people we came with and met. Most especially we are in awe and debt to Bruce for giving ‘today’s generation’ access to this wonderland.
Perth. WA, May 2006"
A secret recipe – comfort to relax the spirit and simplicity to ensure nothing distracts the senses from absorbing the real Kimberley. Thanks for sharing the magic!
City Beach, WA, July 2005"
We have been in a seven star hotel in Dubai and slept in the Indian desert close to Pakistan; we thought we had seen it all!! Until we came here!!??!! What a unique place. Everything is right: the staff, the food, the view, the atmosphere thanks to the vision of Bruce and Robyn. We hope to come back.

An astonishing venue, established by a family with vision, and managed by a great team; simply, a wonder of the world.
Castletown, Isle of Man, UK, October 2003"
A place of serene beauty that begins to feel more and more like home. What a peaceful and interesting experience to see and learn about the area and its flora and fauna – and through such likeable and knowledgeable staff. We will certainly look forward to a return visit and hope the “camp” remains as far away as possible. A dream time for us.

What a fantastic setting. The King George River Gorge and the falls is one of the truly impressive places on Earth. A great effort has been made by "Faraway Bay Resort" to preserve the pristine beauty of the area and yet make it accessible. Thanks for sharing it with us.
Oakland CA USA, May 2000"
When you spend around 7 month's of the year travelling for work it takes a very special place to immediately impress and affect you and Faraway Bay is that place! There are a very few places in the world where I would rather rest my head at night, dozing off with that divine breeze flowing through the cabin, waking to the sheer magnificence of morning in this bay. I won't forget this time ever and I am so grateful to have had the privilege to see this place. Faraway Bay the most relaxing place I have been in a very long, long time.
Daniel Scott - AUSTRALIAN GEOGRAPHIC, October 1999"
We lived 3 days in a romantic, technicolor brochure. Can’t believe the experience was real. The pampering by the perfect staff was unforgettable. Many thanks.

One crowded hour of glorious life is worth an age without a name. You've found the formula - don't change any of it. We'll miss you and your paradise.
