Airlie Beach Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This was my third trip to Airlie Beach and I decided to stay somewhere central this time rather than trudge up the hill to my accommodation. Airlie Beach Hotel is the perfect location to access everything, and only a short level walk to most restaurants, shops and walkways. Despite being almost above the pub and restaurant, my third floor Premium Ocean King room was quiet and I could barely hear any of the ongoings downstairs at any time of the day or night during the weekend that I was there. There are presently renovations being undertaken at the hotel, but this did not interfere with the comfort of my stay. The room was exceptionally clean, and the coffee machine, iron, full sized ironing board and facilities were much appreciated. My morning coffee while sitting on my balcony in the early morning sunshine overlooking the water was perfect. The Saturday morning markets are directly across the road. The restaurant is very popular, and the food is amazing. All of the Airlie Beach Hotel staff, from reception to cleaning to bar and restaurant staff, were incredibly friendly and helpful, and made me feel very welcome. I will definitely be staying at the Airlie Beach Hotel for my next visit."

'Vue de Bleu' Luxury Whitsunday Retreat

8/10 Good

"he house was really nice, with a great pool, views, and surroundings. Our complaint was that we felt the house was not represented correctly. It worked out for us since we were all adults, but I’m not sure it would suit a family. It is listed as a four-bedroom house, but in fact, it is a two-bedroom house with a detached building that has a further two bedrooms and a bathroom included. There are 19 large outdoor steps down to these rooms, and unfortunately, it was raining most nights, so we got quite wet going to bed. These two downstairs bedrooms are actually one room separated by two steps up and no door, so they are not really two rooms and lack privacy. The back bedroom is quite pokey and claustrophobic. The standard of this downstairs space is not in keeping with the house itself.There was only one hairdryer provided for three bathrooms, the mugs and glasses didn’t match, and there could have been more crockery and cutlery provided. When paying this much for a property, this feels a bit cheap.There are also safety concerns if you had children with you, the porch around the pool is quite tall with no barrier and a drop straight onto concrete below. I don’t know if it is council compliant but it’s a long way to fall on concrete. Overall, while we appreciated the charm of the house and the stunning views, clearer communication about the property’s layout and improvements in safety and amenities would greatly enhance the experience for future guests."

Seascape on Shutehaven

8/10 Good

"We enjoyed our stay at this property. The pool is large and perfect for a family, with a great BBQ and seating area. The view from the upstairs windows is stunning and it would be great if the overgrown plants were cut back so you could have this view from the pool.The kitchen is large and has everything you need. There were just a few little things that could be improved, like a wardrobe or chest of drawers for clothes in the upstairs bedroom and the shower screens and windows haven’t been cleaned in a while. Overall, we had a good time away and will definitely visit Airlie Beach again."
