The Crosbie Family

Wow – I’m trying to find the right words to describe our holiday in the Whitsundays on board the sailing catamaran Tara.

Our family of 6 have never experienced a holiday like this and a week on, we are still trying to settle back into our normal city life.

Our floating hotel, Tara, was well equipped with everything we may need for the week. The cabins were much roomier than we expected, the beds comfortable and even with 4 wild kids on board she never felt cramped.

The best part of our holiday was that us adults actually got to relax – we didn’t have to find activities to keep the kids busy! They explored the bays and beaches in the dinghy, spent hours jumping off the boat into the water and enjoyed playing games and generally being kids. There was so much room that the kids could be doing what they wanted at the front of the boat while we relaxed with a glass of champagne and nibbles in the cockpit.

From the moment we enquired all the way through to checking out, the Whitsunday Escape staff were friendly, helpful and able to answer every one of my questions (and trust me, there were lots of questions!)

The memories will live with us for a lifetime and we can’t wait to start planning another trip to the Whitsundays. Don’t worry Whitsunday Escape, you haven’t seen the last of the Crosbie family.
