Decadent Lunches & Spectacular Dinners At Elementa

Set high above the Coral Sea on Mount Whitsunday, Elementa Whitsundays, together with its on-site artisan gin and vodka maker 74 Islands Distillery, is transforming how locals and visitors experience dining, connection, and celebration in Airlie Beach.

Now open to the public for walk-in evenings and exclusive daytime events, Elementa offers something rare: a venue that fuses world-class culinary experiences with panoramic views, small-batch spirits, and the effortless luxury of the tropics.

From daytime distillery lunches to twilight cocktails under the stars, every gathering at Elementa is designed to feel special and unmistakably local.

TASTE OF 74 LUNCH
Cruise Ship Days (Open to All) | 12-2pm

Created for guests short on time but big on flavour, Taste of 74 is a curated two-hour experience that blends regional produce, local distilling, and coastal elegance into one unforgettable lunch.

Hosted on cruise ship days and open to everyone, guests are transported via return transfers from Airlie Beach Lagoon. On arrival, you’re welcomed with cocktails and canapés on the rooftop, followed by a guided tasting comparing spirits made with ultra-pure Whitsundays rainwater versus reverse osmosis - an experience that never fails to spark conversation.

Lunch features a selection of woodfired pizzas highlighting local produce, ending on a sweet note with house-made dessert and limoncello handcrafted onsite.

74 ISLANDS COCKTAIL CLUB
Fridays | 5pm-late

Fridays at Elementa are designed to surprise and delight.

The 74 Islands Cocktail Club is a weekly ritual for the curious, the intrepid, and the lovers of something a little different. Each week features a signature cocktail revealed only on the night, a rotating showstopper pizza (think hot-smoked crocodile with pickled torch ginger from the Elementa garden), and live entertainment curated by Total Entertainment.

With seasonal ingredients from trusted local providers Fish D’vine, Master Butcher Whitsundays, and Prickly Pineapple, the menu changes weekly - so no two nights are ever the same.

Bookings for Taste of 74 & the 74 Islands Cocktail Club are essential via Airlie Events.
