"We enjoyed a room away from the busy main hotel. However, we still had access to the main hotel. We were able to enjoy a simple (and cheaper!) home made breakfast. Coca Chu, Beach House Restaurant (which we tried - excellent!) - easy walking distance. We picked up a community umbrella at Beach House when we were caught out in rain, but would have appreciated if there was one left at our room. Many would find the adjacent buggy park useful, too."

"Right in the middle of Airlie Beach town, this is great for local restaurants and bars., as well as the beach. We stayed in a cabin which was spacious and had a small veranda to sit on at night.
