Location
Our Organic Bed & Breakfast overlooks Airlie Beach – the
gateway to the Whitsunday Islands and the Great Barrier Reef. It
is only 250m to the village with its choice of cafes, restaurants
and shops and the Airlie Beach Lagoon, yet our house is quietly
positioned in a natural setting of organic fruit and nut trees
and tropical plants.
The Whitsunday region is home to the Aboriginal inhabitants – the
Ngaro and Gia people. The Ngaro homelands encompass the Whitsunday
Island chain and take in the part of the mainland including Airlie
Beach. The Ngaro and Gia people were saltwater people and expert
seafarers and feasted on shellfish, turtle, dugong, fish and native
bushfoods which were all found in great abundance in the reefs,
waters, mangroves, and rainforests of the Whitsundays.
We exhibit and sell original art and crafts by the local Aboriginal
people in our Bed & Breakfast.
Your Hosts
We are John Sergeant and Sharini Kumarage. For many years we ran
an organic business selling certified organic produce and organic
meals. We know the difference of tasty and nutritious organic food.
Our common interest in good food and healthy sustainable living
and the love of the Whitsundays has inspired us to bring the first
Organic Bed & Breakfast to the area.
We love this paradise. With his passion for sailing, John sailed
into the Whitsundays nearly 20 years ago boasting a lot of local
knowledge. We want you to appreciate the beauty of this place as
much as we do and would love to share this knowledge with you.
