10/10 Excellent

The moment we walked into our room at Whitsunday Apartments, the immediate focal point was the ocean view--and it was magnificent! Truly, the room and the view were even better than the advertised photos. The staff was always helpful, cheerful and gracious. It would have been the best vacation ever, except the weather wasn't cooperating and we didn't go snorkeling. This only means we will have to go back--poor us! Lol

Palm Bungalows

Whitsundays

10/10 Excellent

The palm bungalows were absolutely great. We had a 5 year old and a 1 year old with us. The hotel staff provided us with a complimentary stroller, high chair, baby bed and anything else we needed. When we put them to bed, we would just sit outside in our bungalow own hammock and watch the sun go down until the kids went to sleep. It was a fabulous vacation and I would recommend anyone to stay there, especially those with kids who need the “extras”.

We had a wonderful time staying at Airlie Beach hotel. The staff was super friendly and booked the reef snorkeling tours for us and offered discounts as well. It's right in the middle of the most happening part of the town, with excellent dining options and across from the beach. I want to especially thank Ms.Sandy who accommodated our last min change in plans for an earlier checkout and she found a way to refund us the last day's charge even though it was very last minute.

My husband and I absolutely loved this place. In the middle of a long trip around Australia to meet all his friends and family (I’m American) we stayed here as a break and chance to rejuvenate. The Acacia Villa is gorgeous, feels brand new, and has everything you’d need for a long weekend trip. We loved the gorgeous view, watching the birds, and relaxing in the outdoor bath. We brought most of our own food to cook, but did get one of the baskets delivered to us, which was fun and yummy. I only...

The place is located at a 10 minutes walk from the city, and 5 minutes walk from the Greyhound bus terminal./ Port of Airlie. For dinner, we recommend you to try their restaurant. The food...
