Culinary Delight

The food at Arajilla is nothing short of extraordinary! Every meal featured a changing daily menu, ensuring that we were always excited to see what was on offer. From beautifully presented dishes to delectable flavors, the culinary experience here rivals some of Sydney's top restaurants. One highlight was a delivered seafood BBQ pack to a beach, where we enjoyed fresh seafood surrounded by amazing views!

Luxurious Comfort

Our Kentia Suite was a slice of paradise. Nestled in lush greenery, the room was modern, impeccably clean, and filled with natural light. The spacious layout and lovely bathroom provided the perfect relaxing atmosphere after a day of exploring. The nightly turn-down service added that extra touch of luxury that made our stay feel special.

Serene Spa Experience

I indulged in a rejuvenating hot rock massage and facial at the spa, which is beautifully set within the garden. The professionalism and friendliness of the staff made the experience truly nice. The complimentary herbal tea after the treatment was a good addition that enhanced the relaxation.

Active Adventures

Arajilla provided us with bikes and snorkeling gear, making it easy to explore the amazing surroundings. The island's walking paths and stunning beaches are just a stone's throw away from the resort. We loved the relaxed vibe of cycling around the island and enjoying the pristine environment. We felt active and connected to nature during our entire stay.
