    qualia’s highly-private location (the resort is tucked away in an exclusive precinct on the northernmost tip of Hamilton Island) is truly something special. But it’s the elegant lodgings—with luxe private balconies facing the Whitsundays or the spectacular tropical bushland—that will have you tempted to extend your stay.
