Earlando

Earlando – your own piece of paradise in one of the most secluded and beautiful areas in the Whitsundays. Get back to the nature and beauty of the Whitsundays as they were intended, and envelop yourself in the beautiful, natural surroundings.

Ceremony

Arrive by sea, air, or land and tie the knot in your chosen spot. Choose between our private palm fringed beach with the sand between your toes, or opt for one of our two beautiful ocean front pavilions. There is also the option of a ceremony in the outback fields and traditional cattle yards or even at our mountain top lookout with views over the breathtaking Whitsunday Islands – the choices here are endless!

Meander through the lush tropical gardens to your choice of canapé area and spoil your guests with magnificent views and extraordinary photo opportunities. Then, whisk yourselves away for a varied photo tour of numerous other secret and private locations. Our top photo spots include the top of the mountain range for panoramic views, our private ocean jetty, our untouched private beaches and our rustic cattle yards.

Reception

Imagine holding your reception outdoors under the stars, listening to the ocean waves without another sound to be heard – what could be more peaceful?! A newly renovated undercover deck gives you peace of mind that the wonderful North QLD weather will not alter your plans for your special day!

The options at Earlando are limitless, allowing you to customise your day exactly as you wish.

A last little bit about us!

Earlando has forever been a family owned and run business. Our aim is to make you feel as comfortable as possible throughout your journey with us. With strictly one event per week, you will have our full attention, dedication and care. Become part of one of the Whitsundays best kept secrets, and make lasting memories in paradise.

My name is Teena Titley and I am one of two daughters of Ron and Rachelle Earle. My parents and grandparents founded and created what was formerly known as “Slaters Bay” to the now known “EARLANDO”, they did this by combining their names Earle and Anderssen. This venture started in 1969 and has been in the family ever since.

Earlando and its 6500 acres, has had many different lives- a Paw Paw and Mango farm, a tourist resort with camp grounds and units, and all throughout a rugged working cattle property. In 2003 Earlando closed its doors to the general public and I decided to marry the man of my dreams here for its last hoorah!

My husband Ben, is a 4th generation North QLD Charters Towers man, and we started our life together on a cattle property in Western QLD. After 6 years we made the move back to the sea air, bringing with us our first born child- Mac, now 10. After a couple of years our 2nd child- Pippa was born, now 6 years old. We now have the 3 generations living, working and playing here at Earlando.

After spending 13 years enjoying Earlando’s natural beauty, we have made the decision as a family to share our beautiful backyard with those who will treasure the memories, feelings and experiences that only Earlando can bring.

We are very family orientated, with a strong passion to work and play together. Our favourite thing to do is camp on the property and have picnics in the paddock. Our other love is the water, and to spend weekends fishing and sightseeing the top end of the Whitsundays.

We are very fond of Earlando for many reasons, but mostly because of its privacy, space and tranquillity. It’s natural bushland, private beach and ocean frontage is also very hard to top. This will always be our home and I want to share it with people who will get the same overwhelming enjoyment, great feelings and fond memories from it that we do.
