  • and have paid your final balance while the Queensland border is open to your State, if there is a sudden Queensland border closure after your final balance payment, we will amend your travel dates without penalty.

Reservations held in credit

If you need to change your travel dates due to illness or border restrictions, you can do so without penalty. You have two options:

  • If you know the exact dates you’d like to book, we can reserve those dates at time of rebooking (subject to availability)
  • If you don’t know the exact dates you’d like to rebook, we can hold your booking in credit for up to 12 months for Hamilton Island Holiday Homes (dates can be changed for the same property only) or for up to three years for any of our Hamilton Island Hotels.

Please note, that whilst no penalty applies to change your booking, if your new travel dates fall into a new yearly rate period (rate periods renew 1 April every year), the overall price of your booking may increase according to the new room rates in that period.
