“Wongai Beach Hotel has a great location; that much is clear. The familial atmosphere cultivated by its local staff appeals, and its proximity to the airport matters, although some may find the price a little high relative to the dated rooms. Even so, its island vibe is a major plus for exploring the Torres Strait.”
