    Whitsunday Sands Resort is located on a peninsula, providing direct access to beautiful Horseshoe Bay on the eastern side, and four secluded beaches on the western side. We offer self contained, studio and motel units set amongst acres of beautiful landscaped gardens. It's like an Island on the Mainland! Paradise has never been so easy and affordable.
