Wayne Pihlgren of Skinny Dips Resort and Spa in Cairns commented that “with winter lows of 26C (82F) and balmy summer temperatures of 32C (94F) visitors can swim all year round, explore the magnificent Great Barrier Reef, the world’s oldest rainforests and our unique wildlife and leave boasting a healthy tan.”

Geoff and Chris from the 88 Lodge Luxury Bed and Breakfast in Kerikeri weren’t surprised by its inclusion and commented that “For the gay and lesbian traveler however the biggest attraction has to be the sheer pleasure and freedom of being amongst the friendly and accepting locals. It would be hard to find anywhere in the world that would be more homofriendly than Northland and especially Kerikeri.”

Next month, we will release the prestigious Pink Choice Awards. The award recognizes those hotels, guest houses and inns that have excelled in providing the very best in gay and lesbian accommodation, based on the reviews and ratings made by guests during 2008.
