Great place to take the family, with three swimming pools and great views. Great location, just a short walk to everything at Airlie Beach - main street with restaurants, lagoon, beach harbour, Woolworths across the street. Only faults is that some maintenance and furnishings need renewal - sofa seating collapsed, outdoor seating at end of life, noisy exhaust fan in ensuite.

Comfortable and spacious rooms, easy walk to town, however do aim for level 2 or above if you want/pay for an ocean view. Trees have grown to tall and obscure what otherwise a lovely view. We changed rooms due to this factor which was no trouble for staff to accomodate - made a world of difference to our 8 day stay (also our original room definitely had not been renovated as stated on the website)
