An Award-Winning Mirage

On Saturday night luxury accommodation providers, Mirage Whitsundays, were thrilled to take home an award for the fifth time in a row.

Having entered into the Hall of Fame at the 2018 Whitsunday Tourism Awards for bringing home Gold three years in a row, the team were glad to be back after COVID put a halt to the awards, making the 2022 occasion even more special.

This year they took home Gold in the 4-4.5 star category.

General Manager Jeanette Harris said that she had recently joined the team, having worked over on Hamilton Island for the past eight years, and that it was wonderful to see all the great work they had been doing.

“The team were really proud!” she said.

“It was really fantastic to be among other industry participants in the region and really exciting to be with other excellent operators on the night.

“I would like to give special thanks to Connor Davis who is our Front Office Manager and Mick Bennett who is our long-serving Maintenance Manager who knows the place inside and out and keeps it running.”

There are 104 luxury apartments at the complex and Mirage Whitsundays manages 85 of them as Holiday Rental Apartments.

Ms Harris says that people comment most about the palatial feel of the large and modern apartments and Villas which have full kitchen facilities and spacious lounges. The Villas and Executive and Penthouse Apartments also each have their own private plunge pool.

“They also love the sea views!” she said.

Mirage Whitsundays offers a hot buffet breakfast each morning from the on-site Whisper Gin Bar and Restaurant, and their signature Bottomless Brunch is held every Sunday morning.
