GOLF BUGGY (APPLIES TO HAMILTON ISLAND PRIVATE PROPERTIES ONLY)
You will be provided with a complimentary golf buggy. Same as when you hire a car, the valet will ask you to inspect the buggy at the start of your stay for any damages and to sign a declaration that there were no damages at the start of your stay. You are liable for any damages caused by you or a person within your group. Golf buggy insurance becomes invalid if the driver is under the influence of drugs or alcohol. In this case you will be liable for the entire cost of repair. Where insurance can be used you are liable for $1000 excess for drivers over 24 years of age and $1500 for drivers under the age of 24. Drivers under the age of 24 cannot drive the buggy without written consent from the owner/ property manager. By law on Hamilton Island you must have an Open Drivers License to drive a golf buggy on Hamilton Island
