QUEENSLAND'S wild weather was certainly unlucky for some, but the heavy rain has proved a blessing for Fraser Island.
After six months without much rain, the storm has replenished the native wallum around the resort and the waterways are full of new life.
Kingfisher Bay Resort Group general manager David Hay said the much-needed rainfall had hardened the sand roads on Fraser Island, making driving conditions much easier and safer.
Walking tracks that had been closed for some time due to fire danger will re-open soon.
While many Queensland properties suffered heavy damage, both Kingfisher Bay and Eurong Beach resorts on the island experienced no damage and boatloads of new guests are arriving daily.
Kingfisher Bay Resort has launched a Stay 5 Pay 4 offer for family villas, starting from $188 a night over the school holiday period.
