“What struck me most is the range of accommodations, from spacious apartments ideal for families to luxury penthouses with private lap pools; plus, the adults-only pool is a thoughtful touch. The location is superb, granting easy access to both the Great Barrier Reef and Airlie Beach itself. In my opinion, this stay balances adventure and relaxation quite nicely.”

waterfront villa private pool nice selection thick pile basic food misleading description
the three bedroom two story waterfront villa with a private pool was a perfect fit for our family. the villa had ample space. the views from the rooms were captivating. breakfast was a good surprise with a nice selection.
the hotel's facilities did not fully meet five star expectations. i noticed thick piles of dust next to the skirting boards in the lounge room.
