Kingfisher Bay Resort’s signature restaurant, Seabelle, located on World-Heritage-listed Fraser Island, has won the Queensland Hotels Association Best Restaurant Award for Excellence 2006.
Resort Managing Director Gary Smith said, “The restaurant is attractive to both domestic and international tourists seeking to try the best of the local Australian foods and wines, offering relaxed atmosphere, friendly staff, quality service and food and the experience of the different flavours of the Australian bush combine to create a happy dining experience for guests.”
Seabelle has also been placed in the Fraser Coast Tourism Awards Hall of Fame as a best Tourism Restaurant and also features weekly tasting sessions that focus on Australian food and wines.
The restaurant takes its name from the schooner Seabelle that was wrecked on the island on a voyage from Gladstone to Sydney in 1857. A model of the Seabelle, created by Hervey Bay artist Albert Coy, is on display at the restaurant entrance and Kingfisher Bay Resort ranger and photographer Peter Meyer’s photographs of Fraser Island beauty spots decorate the restaurant walls.
Kingfisher Bay Resort is also the current holder of the Queensland and Australian Tourism Awards for Ecotourism.
