Hamilton Island Tennis Retreat 2026 — Itinerary

Retreat Itinerary
Hamilton Island Tennis Retreat — 6–9 August 2026
The Sundays, Hamilton Island

DAY 1 — ARRIVAL & WELCOME
Arrival
Arrive on Hamilton Island (HTI) and transfer to The Sundays, where you can unpack, breathe in the ocean air, and settle into island pace before we play; take a moment on the balcony or by the pool, meet your hosts, and feel your shoulders drop instantly.
Mid-afternoon
We ease into things with social doubles, with play at a pace that suits you—no pressure, just fun; gentle rallies and friendly pairings help you shake off travel, find your rhythm, and meet fellow Queens who’ll quickly feel like friends.
Evening
We gather for welcome cocktails on The Sundays Pool Deck before a relaxed group dinner at coca chu; expect bright flavours, warm conversation, and zero decisions—just show up, enjoy, and let the evening set the tone for the days ahead. This dinner is included.

DAY 2 — ISLAND VIBES & PLAY
Morning
Begin the day with optional sunrise yoga to wake up gently, then linger over an included breakfast before rolling into round-robin tennis, with play at a pace that suits you—no pressure, just fun; light sweat, big smiles, and easy wins in confidence.
Afternoon
Spend the afternoon exactly as you like: an ocean swim, a beach wander along Catseye, a spa booking, or a book by the pool; this is unhurried island time designed for you to exhale, recharge, and choose your own pace without a schedule tugging at you.
Evening
We reconvene for a hosted dinner at Catseye Pool Club by Josh & Julie Niland, where share-style plates and sunset light make conversation effortless; you simply arrive to a set table and savour the moment together, with this dinner included in your package.

DAY 3 — PLAYOFFS & PICNIC
Morning
Keep the rhythm going with Round-robin Tennis — Challenge Day 3, with play at a pace that suits you—no pressure, just fun; rotate partners, cheer the points, and enjoy that sweet blend of movement and laughter that leaves everyone glowing, not drained.
Midday
We gather for an included seaside picnic lunch that invites you to linger; think simple, fresh bites, feet-up relaxation, and time to swap stories with new friends before drifting back into the afternoon, pleasantly full and gloriously unhurried.
Afternoon
Let the afternoon unfold your way: float through a golden-hour swim, wander the shoreline for photos, or simply return to The Sundays for poolside lazing; this is generous, open time for rest, reset, and the kind of quiet that feels like a treat.
Evening
The evening is free for you to explore the island at your own pace; browse dinner options we’ll recommend—from casual beachside to refined—and cap the night with a stroll or a nightcap, returning to your room relaxed, content, and early-tomorrow ready.

DAY 4 — EASY MORNINGS & GOODBYES
Morning
Ease into your final morning with an included breakfast, a slow pack-up, and those last photos around The Sundays; take a final dip if you wish, breathe in the view, and soak up the feeling of having truly rested, played, and reconnected with yourself.
Departure
When you’re ready, your included return transfers will take you to Hamilton Island Airport (HTI) for departure; hugs, numbers exchanged, and promises to meet again are part of the ritual, because the best souvenirs here are the friendships you take home.
