Introduction ; Our loft style villa is surrounded by native bush land with access to resort facilities and is your gateway to iconic World Heritage Listed K'gari (Fraser Island). Barge your 4wd to the resort or walk on. Once you are here you are steps away from your K'gari experience. The resort and villa is great for couples and families alike. Space or privacy, romance or adventure, get pampered or DIY fun - it's up to you. Come see what you have been missing. Our Property ; Sapphire 535 is open and airy in the summer and warm and cosy in the off season. You can't help but relax in this award winning eco designed space. The best value for money on the island. Nothing but trees and the Sandy Straight are in your view from the balcony. Inside it's all island comfort. Everything you need for R&R or unwinding from a day hiking or touring around the island. The master bedroom is roomy and bright with a comfy queen size bed and plenty or cupboard and storage space.

Guest Access ; Several 3 car parking bays are within a short walk to the villa. We are a 5-minute walk to reception and the resorts amenities (as the villa is elevated in the tree line the walk does have a manageable hill in it).

Excellent for two small families
We spent 5 nights in this villa with 2 families with toddlers and it was wonderful. It had all the amenities we required and extra space for the portacots. Will stay again.

Great place
Fraser is amazing thoroughly recommmend spectacular scenery
Our stay at the bungalow treehouse at Kingfisher Bay Resort was comfortable and made for a great home base while exploring Fraser Island. The beds were cozy, and we loved unwinding on the balcony, which offered a lovely view of the surrounding nature. The resort’s location made it easy to access all the stunning beaches nearby.
However, the treehouse was slightly rundown and the loft was not ideal for young children—it felt too unsafe for them to use, so we opted to sleep downstairs on the couch. Despite this, it was still a pleasant and convenient place to stay.
Everything about the place was great. Clear instructions,communication and a comfortable place to stay with the family. Would definitely stay there again.
Very neat and tidy villa, very spacious and excellent resort facilities. Typically have been 4wd campers to K’Gari, this time we decided to forego the camping and super glad we did. Highly recommend this accommodation and host. Thank you :)

My niece was married at Kingfisher Bay resort on Friday, so we made it a short stay, Thurs to Sun.
Tom was an amazing host, loved the Villa and he was so accommodating.
Thanks Tom 😊
Great size for a small family or 2 couples. Had all the items we needed for a week long stay. Property was clean. Bonus that we could use resort facilities. Would stay again.

Spacious and quiet villa that had everything we needed for our 6-night stay. Great value for money. The washing machine and dryer was much appreciated! Our children (7 and 9) slept in the loft, the ladder is steep and I wouldn’t feel safe with smaller children climbing up and down. A railing attached to the wall would make it a bit safer in my opinion.
The kitchen was well equipped but we felt the villa could do with a very thorough clean, the floors and kitchen cupboards looked a bit grimey but it definitely didn’t stop us from having a wonderful stay.
We really enjoyed our time at the Banksia Villa, Kingfisher Bay. The rooms were comfortable and and we had plenty of space for all the family. The location is nice and leafy and close to all the resort amenities.

About the host
Hosted by Tom Bender
We are a family of 4 - Zonya, Tom, Jake and Pearl. We bought what we call "Camp Saphire" back in 2004. I happened upon 535 while staying at Kingfsher and that was all it took. We live in Sydney and get there as much as we can.
Why they chose this property
Our little villa is not an investment - it's a life style. This purchase of the villa probably won't appreciate much with time but it is certainly getting more appreciation from us over time. It's cosy, gives access to one of the most wonderful places in the world to explore and provides all the comforts you could desire with a little bit or luxury thrown in. .
