Ulysses Getaways

We are a family of Australian and European origin with a combined 25 years tourism experience helping travellers enjoy this majestic country.

Having first discovered Far North Queensland’s charm 12 years ago, we have, since early 1995, made this stunning tropical region our permanent home.

Our intimate knowledge of this area and all it’s attractions and services is enhanced by local experience conducting four-wheel drive rainforest/outback safaris, dive services (professional Padi Dive Instructor) and private luxury resort management.

What this means to you is informed answers to your questions. Having travelled extensively ourselves, we know what it’s like travelling to unfamiliar places. How true it is that we can all have very different needs, interests and wishes.

Please feel free to simply book your luxury beach-house, but you are welcome to take advantage of our extensive range of services (see activities). We are here to help you organise your holiday to be as active or as leisurely as you want it to be.

Our guarantee - we will communicate with you. If the information you require is not at hand, we will investigate and respond.

Come and get your own slice of paradise. We are waiting to hear from you.

THE LAIRD HOTEL IN MELBOURNE

Man Friday
is all about putting the fun back into Fridays. Sourcing local & occasional interstate talent, we want to bring you a diverse mix of entertainment comedy, live music, cabaret, karaoke & more. It’s a great way to start the weekend & an easy way to support local queer/queer friendly artists. This July, we present Wes Snelling & Tully Sumner. The beautiful honey smooth vocals of Wes are joined by blues/roots gem Tully for an acoustic set of songs they like & then fuck with a little, for your pleasure... "Fabulousness". The Age. "Super Fabulous". Herald Sun. 'I must apologize for my overuse of the word 'fabulous”' Inpress. The above quotes may or may not be true. Find out for yourself....

8TH & 22ND JULY. 9PM-LATE. FREE ENTRY

MID-WINTER UNDIES!

If there’s one thing that doesn’t slow down for winter, it’s our Underwear Party. Somehow when there’s more of a chill outside, guys are happier to strip down to their jocks & enjoy the warmth of a shot of schnapps & a hundered like-minded men. Smokers, our Beer Garden is heated, so you don’t have to worry about freezing your bits off. At $8 with free schnapps on arrival & full cloak facilities, it’s easy to see why it’s the best Underwear Party around, pants down!

THIS MONDAY. 8.30PM-LATE. $8 ENTRY
