Anonymous traveller

A balcony with a view of a beach and ocean.

Airlie Beach Hotel

Airlie Beach

10/10 Excellent

Its central location & reception staff are absolutely wonderful. Honestly, the reception team are amazing and did anything they could to make our stay as comfortable as possible - exceptional. The decor needs a refresh in our opinion. For example the floor covering lets the hotel down. Such the old fashioned carpet needs changing with wood/ tiled flooring. The hotel’s really for people who like to listen to loud music, live music, a pub culture etc. For example, we never used the outdoor pool...

An outdoor dining area with wooden tables and chairs, overlooking a body of water and mountains.

Freedom Shores

Woodwark

10/10 Excellent

I was advised that there is a complimentary shuttle bus and can be adjust if any of us need the bus earlier than 11am but didn’t mention that there is a strict 11am starting route . That’s why I booked with Freedom Shores even they are quite far from the center (15-20 mins driving )but if I had to choose again the distance will put me off rebooking with them. Otherwise all the rest was excellent.

Anisa

A coastal hotel with a pier, a pool, and a view of the sea and hills.

Coral Sea Resort

Airlie Beach

10/10 Excellent

Excellent first impression very pleasant and accommodating staff went out of their way to please. Rooms well appointed and clean. Despite the devastation in the area due to cyclone 'Debbie' the hotel was coping with repairs but always keeping focus on customer service. Due to the short stay we were unable to fulfil some of the prearranged excursions and the lagoon nearby was closed due to the cyclone which would have been good for my grandson but would not hesitate in recommending Coral Sea...

10/10 Excellent

Cabin was very basic but good value and in an excellent location for getting to Airlie Beach. Irish girl on reception (sorry didn’t get her name) was lovely and we had an amazing time here, great as a budget option and although about 1.5 miles from the centre there were buses up until 2230hrs and a taxi was between 10-15 dollars. The walk in was pleasant but you were drenched with sweat after 5 minutes. All in all no issues and would definitely return.
