Family Getaways

All-inclusive meets choose your own adventure

Whether you need a relaxing break, or want a week of adventure, Keats has you covered.

Let us take care of all the details (like transportation and meals), while you spend time with your family on an island getaway on the Sunshine Coast. Make each day your own, choosing from a variety of activities, exploring amazing West Coast nature on the island, or just finding a peaceful place to slow down.

Choose your cabin style, spend the week with your family or as a few families together, and we will take care of all the rest for you.

We can’t wait to welcome you to Keats this summer!

Book now to join the fun!

Your family vacation, your way.

This isn’t your typical family camp where your day is determined for you and everything is programmed. Instead, YOU decide what each day will look like for your family and how you want to spend your time.

Wake up and head for a great breakfast to start the day. Make it a family trip to our waterfront to try tubing, or wander off camp property to explore the island’s beaches, hikes, or trails.

After a full morning, it’s time for a quick break to grab lunch, and then an afternoon of fun. Whether you want to play a round of frisbee golf, scale the climbing wall, or even just grab a couple snacks in Mariners Inn and find a shady tree to read under, the island is your playground.

After dinner, wind down with a walk to Campfire Rock, hanging out on the Boardwalk with friends, or enjoying the view across the water from the front field, before heading back to your cabin to sleep, dreaming of what you will do tomorrow!
