At Beachfront on Aore Resort  , our tours run Monday to Friday  a rhythm that reflects the heart of island life. These days are when our local guides, gardeners, and cooks are at their best, ready to share their world with you. Come Saturday and Sunday, the island slows down. Families gather, children play, and work pauses for church we honour that tradition by keeping weekends free, giving everyone time to reconnect.

Your free transfers and tours are designed around that same respect. From Monday to Friday, our team handles everything boat taxi pickups, guided farm visits, bushwalks, cooking lessons, and cultural tours. By aligning with the island’s natural pace, guests get the best of both worlds: authentic experiences during the week and the chance to unwind in peace on the weekend.


This approach isn’t about schedules  it’s about respect for island families and balance. The people who welcome you into their homes, share their gardens, and guide you through Aore’s hidden trails also deserve their own quiet moments. Staying with us means being part of that rhythm  connected, relaxed, and in tune with true island living.
