ECO ACCOMMODATIONS

Inspired by the surrounding landscape, DUENDE Whitsundays was designed to make your visit unique, comfortable and culturally fulfilling 

Duende is located on the side of a hill overlooking Midge Point Beach and Conway National Park, 30 minutes away from the Whitsundays airport and under an hour from Airlie Beach and all the fun.

Did You Know?

The word duende refers to a spirit in Spanish folklore. The term is traditionally used in flamenco music or other art forms to refer to the mystical or powerful force given off by a performer to draw in the audience.

Located in the Whitsundays Duende is a secluded nest from the busy Airlie Beach area but still close enough to enjoy the full range of the region’s appeal. 

In DUENDE you get up close to nature and get your entire sensory system stimulated but also you are able to dip into a visual art working studio.

The art studio features a wide range of visual arts displays:

• Sculpture

• Fine Art Photography

• Painting

• Driftwood jewellery

• Art mirrors

 Duende is now part of the Mackay Artist's trail concept, making your visit a cultural and unique experience.

Inspired by the unparalleled beauty of the Australian surroundings and the Whitsunday's ocean's shores, Duende offers a minimalist but sophisticated nest away from routine and stress.

Accommodation options can be arranged at least 24 hours in advance.

We look forward to welcoming you soon!
