It is a pleasure to write a 5 star review for Suzette’s cottage. Staying in the cottage was like taking a step back in time, yet it had everything I needed. The attention to detail, both in the house and the surrounding gardens is impressive. Very private and peaceful setting, clean and very friendly host. Would love to come back if visiting in the area again.

Sea and Forest Suite

BrunoRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago

We had an incredible stay at Jilly & Geoff's place! Hosts were friendly, responsive, and made sure we felt welcome. The property itself was impeccably clean, and equipped with thoughtful touches like umbrella, beach towels and welcome snacks! The location was ideal, close to the town center, yet peaceful for relaxation. We especially appreciated the view from the balcony and waking up with the amazing view from the bed. This stay exceeded all our expectations, and we can't recommend it enough.

Airlie Views- Mandalay Tropical Waterfront Studio

MarcRating, 5 stars1 day ago

The room with a view! What a lovely place to stay! We definitely will come back there again. It was everything advertised yet so much more when you stay in person. Peaceful, beautiful, calming, restful. The hardest thing was leaving, and we were hard pressed to find anywhere in Arlie Beach that was as good as where were staying. Our first day we just sat there and enjoyed the beautiful view and surroundings. Roz and Peter are just simply wonderful hosts. Friendly, helpful and plenty of great recommendations for places to eat and things to do. This stay is a real gem. You will not be disappointed, it is a really special place and you are cared for by two really special people. Thank you Roz and Peter for a wonderful stay!

Great Barrier Reef Pool,Whitsundays beach house

DemiRating, 5 stars2 months ago

We loved our stay here! It was a very rainy weekend but the view was still amazing, even better in person. The driveway is how everyone has mentioned but once you are in and out a couple of times it was more manageable. I was worried at how kid friendly the house was going to be as my 8m old has just started crawling but he had an absolute ball cruising around looking at all the books and art on the walls. We also had a 4m old with our group and I can happily say it is 100% kid friendly. We still enjoyed the pool in the wet weather and the bath in the ensuite felt like you were staying at your own retreat. Lisa was so welcoming and kept in touch during our stay. I’d definitely stay again but not in the wet season and probably bring our fur babies next time and hopefully enjoy the fire pit and pool house.

A bright living area is presented, featuring a spacious gray sectional sofa adorned with decorative pillows. A dining table with wooden chairs accommodates four. The kitchenette is visible in the background, with essential appliances and storage. Natural light illuminates the room through windows.

Poinciana 105

JohnRating, 5 stars4 months ago

My daughters and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The location is quiet, peaceful with stunning views. The wallaby’s outside on the lawn make this location especially memorable and a great experience. Our experience was excellent from airport pickup to checkin and all the way through checkout.

Hibiscus 107 Deluxe 2 Bedroom Apt + Buggy

DorothyRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago

The apartment was beautiful with stunning views. Every morning we woke to find kangaroos on the lawn and at one time had 9 cockatoos on the balcony. It is truly a tropical paradise island. Arthur was a terrific host answering any questions we had almost immediately. The apartment facilities were amazing and the buggy was the icing on the cake. We appreciated being picked up and dropped off at the airport in the buggy by courteous reps. It has been an unforgettable experience having travelled to Australia to see our relatives and ticking off the Whitsundays on the bucket list. I have never seen such breathtaking views and the Great Barrier Reef and Whitehaven beach are the most beautiful places I have ever seen. Thank you Hamilton Island for making my dream come true.

Hydeaway Bay is a hidden gem in the beautiful Whitsundays, it’s only a short drive to Airlee Beach or Proserpine. Rods place is ideal to explore the region or to just chill and enjoy the views from his place which has all the amenities to enable you to feel right at home. If you don’t want to travel, it is worth noting that Coles or Woolies do deliver to Hydeaway but sometimes you need to book ahead in case their delivery schedule is full.

Fantastic house in a area that we love. Amazing views and great place to relax with your whole family. Clean home and unlike many other airbnb's you didnt feel like you were imposing on their space as the owner has not left all of their belongings everywhere. Fishing as always is great.

Excellent stay in this beautiful home. Phillip was so helpful from the get go, we stayed with three kids which was really helped by Phillip providing a high chair, crib and baby gate.
