Long Island, Whitsundays hotel rooms at the Independent

"A beautiful property with the most amazing tropical gardens. Our apartment was very spacious, awesome kitchen, beds extremely comfy , incredible view & even a fantastic laundry. The pools were excellent & the buffet breakfast every morning was fabulous. 10/10, could not fault the property."

"Beautiful short stay in a stunning location. Loved it and wish we could have stayed longer!"

"As you are in an Island , you have to rely on their food options and restaurant, this would be shocking when you have a child and been told the food is finished or all the tables have been reserved! they should know how many guest on the Island to ensure the variety and enough food in reasonable prices available for everyone. "

"A lovely ocean side resort. Spectacular views and an easy walk into town along the waterside. The surrounding boardwalks have amazing views and feel very safe. Our booking included a continental breakfast which had a good range of cereals, danishes, yoghurt, fruit, toast/breads, juice/coffee. It was lovely but by day 3-5 I was craving variety and a cooked breakfast. Pack a warm jumper as it can be cool in the morning when having breakfast when it is windy (July). We will definitely return. Such a lovely place to relax and enjoy the view "

"We absolutely loved our short-stay (too short) at Elysian. Everything was just perfect. The private island is so peaceful and tranquil. The activities available are plentiful and nature oriented. The food is just divine - every meal was beautifully prepared with the freshest ingredients and meant we did not have to worry about a thing. The cherry on top is the service - each staff member (Alice, Emily, and Nathan in particular) was delightful and attentive, and would do everything in their power to make our stay even more special. We cannot recommend Elysian more highly - we will definitely be coming back! "

"Fantastic accommodation. Staffs are all very friendly and supportive. "

"Booked on our travels, so glad we choose to stay at Airlie Beach Hotel. Everything in short walking distance. Highly recommend."
