Comfortable Respite Accommodation in the Whitsundays

Our Guests Are Our Family

Welcome to RADS, a premier disability respite service in the majestic Whitsundays region of Queensland, Australia. We are dedicated to providing unique and fulfilling experiences for individuals of all abilities, ensuring they have the opportunity to relax, recharge, and enjoy the wonders this beautiful destination has to offer.


Family and disability carers play an essential role in the lives of individuals with special needs. However, caring can be physically, emotionally, and mentally demanding. Therefore, it is crucial for these carers to have regular breaks to rest, recharge, and take care of their own well-being.


And that’s where RADS comes in.


We are delighted to provide a warm and enjoyable experience for our guests. 

Our accommodations have been designed with comfort, accessibility, and relaxation in mind. Each room is thoughtfully furnished with cozy bedding, personalized touches, and all the necessary amenities to ensure a pleasant and restful stay. 


Our communal areas are inviting spaces where you can socialize, meet fellow guests, and engage in activities that cater to your interests. 


Whether it's a quiet corner for reading or a lively game night, there is something for everyone. Our dedicated staff is committed to providing exceptional care and support throughout your stay, ensuring that you feel welcome, safe, and well taken care of. We look forward to creating a memorable and enjoyable experience for you at RADS in the Whitsundays.

Professional care, 24/7

Caring for a special needs family member can be incredibly rewarding, but it can also be physically and emotionally draining. As a carer, it's crucial to recognize that taking breaks and prioritizing your mental health and self-care are just as important. 


Seeking respite care and allowing someone else to provide assistance and support can offer a much-needed break from the demands of caregiving. During this time, you can take the opportunity to focus on your own well-being, engage in activities you enjoy, and recharge your energy levels. 


By giving yourself permission to take a break, you can alleviate stress, prevent burnout, and ultimately enhance your ability to provide the best care possible for your loved ones. It’s an act of self-compassion and an investment in long-term caregiving success.


With RADS you can rest assured all our guests have round-the-clock care, support and attention. We will provide an enjoyable experience so you can feel good about taking a well-earned break.

Quality Home Cooked Meals

We understand that everyone has unique dietary requirements and preferences, and we strive to cater to those needs with delicious and nutritious meals. 


We cook a wide variety of dishes that are not only flavorsome but also mindful of dietary restrictions, such as gluten-free, vegetarian, or vegan options. We use fresh and locally sourced ingredients to ensure the highest quality and to support local farmers and producers. From hearty and satisfying meals to light and refreshing options, our home cooked meals are designed to provide a balanced and nourishing dining experience. 


We are committed to creating a welcoming and inclusive atmosphere where all guests can enjoy their meals with peace of mind, knowing that their dietary needs have been considered and met.
