No fault in our stars

So what’s with the star rating anyway? Good question. The star rating has little to do with the price, and more to do with the amenities. 4-Star hotels in Great Barrier Reef as well as everywhere else, usually have all those thoughtful touches that make you go “Ooh,” “Ahh,” and ”YES!” Think amenities like luxury bedding, high-end electronics, concierge service, and restaurants that make eating in a gourmet experience.

Stars that shine
