Hayman — Australia’s private island resort located in the Great Barrier Reef — has reopened after a five-month renovation that included the construction of eight new beachside villas.

In addition to the new villas, the renovation included the recreation of the Hayman garden, upgraded F&B offerings and additions to the Hayman Activities hub such as new floodlit tennis courts, squash courts and a basketball court as well as a new walking trail.
