Great video! I'm headed there from the US in Mid-March and have been super worried that it will be raining the whole time. Glad to see you had some nice sun! Also heard it's stinger season there...hopefully I'll make it out alive 🤣
You’ll love it! It technically is rainy season but if it does rain you’ll find it might just storm in the afternoon but be sunny for the rest of the day. I’ve been there a few times around March and it’s barely rained. If you go to any reefs or away from Hamilton island you’ll have to wear stinger suits but it’s generally fine swimming at the beach by late March.
Love the video John! The authenticity is fantastic! So many people are so boring and you really capture the fun and authentic moments of your holiday while still making it enjoyable to watch. Looking forward to some more holiday videos from you!
Thank you so much!! I’m really glad you enjoyed it! I really try to be authentic. I understand social media can really glorify peoples lives in an unrealistic way, leading to false expectations and dreams. I want to share my authentic and realistic life/lifestyle and I’m glad you liked it! 😊
Please more vlog together with your Dad & Aunt 💖💖🌈🌈 so lovely to see the 3 of you 🌸🌸🌸🌸 I so much like the snorkeling part with beautiful water & sea creatures in a Perfect music you have used therein. 👍👍 So happy family driving the golf cart 🌈🌈🌈🌈🌼👍👍🌸⭐💫🌠🌟✨💖💖💖💖 you and your family gave me a relaxation now while watching your vacation vlog 😊😊😊😊
I absolutely love how you filmed this vlog. You show the scenery and activities you’re doing instead of talking for 30 minutes and calling it a “vlog”. Really sold Hamilton Island to me. I’m considering going. You deserve more views than the stupid influencers 💛 Quick question: What camera do you use for the vlog?
Thank you so much! I’m glad you enjoyed it. I used a mixture between my canon r6 with a shotgun mic which I “vlogged with” and then my iPhone 13 pro for some b roll and my GoPro hero 9 for all the water activities. I really wanted to capture the island itself and also show my family and I have a good time and being silly and still try and make it fairly entertaining. I appreciate your feedback. 😊 Also I recommend going it’s so much fun!
Looks amazing! I am going in October, cannot wait! What time did you find the sun set there? I am from Melbourne so always sets late in the spring/summer!
So we were there in March and the sun set around 6/6:30. There’s no daylight savings in Queensland and the days in summer are much shorter than in the south
We stayed at Shorlines 24 which is a 2 bedroom house on the western side of the island. It was really good but next time we want to stay on the eastern side which is more ‘resort style’ and where the nice beach is (Catseye Beach). We are staying in the frangipani apartments in a 3 bedroom apartment. I noticed some are renovated and some are quite dated so I made sure to book the newly renovated one. 😊
Fantastic content. Video is so clear and editing is spot on.
Thank you! 😊
Fantastic video! Spot on realistic vlog of what i want to watch when i'm considering going somewhere! Very enjoyable video. Looking forward to more!
Thanks. I’m glad you enjoyed it 😊

When Peter says he's ok to drive you know he's really not 🤣
Hahahahaha ikr. At least they’re just golf buggies and they’re all speed limited
Your family are so funny! Love it 😍
Thank you! 😊

I think id struggle to drive those buggies too 😮
It feels weird when you first start driving them but easy after a while
Very sad to read about what happened to the young lady from Sydney a few weeks ago. Safety of these vehicles need to be assessed.
What is that very first song you guys used for the video, every time I watch a Hamilton Island Video that seems to be the most used 🙂
Oh really? It’s called Starfields by Hallman
May I ask where you stayed and where you’ve decided to stay next time?
We stayed at Shorlines 24 which is a 2 bedroom house on the western side of the island.

What was the hotel called you stayed at In Hamilton island ?
We stayed in a holiday rental house called shorelines. It’s on the west side of the island
Mannn I gotta go sometime soon !!
Yeah you’ve got to it’s so much fun!!
Where is this Island?
It’s in northern Queensland, Australia
