The location is FABULOUS so close to the shops, loved the pool areas, and didn't realise they had a spa and that was warm enough. Only a small hill to climb (and Airlie has many !!!), friendly staff and good clean apartments. I've stayed there twice and would book again based on location alone.

Airlie Beach

Although I was sick the whole week I spent a lot of time in the apartment, and noticed it is very tired and in bad need of modernisation given the price charged. Very steep hill to get into and out of the property. All through the place there were lots of areas that were not that clean- bare feet kept collecting fluff and hair from previous occupants, and beds although comfortable, did not look the greatest. We were there for a week although cut short due to illness after 5 days. Staff very helpful and pleasant. Vary noisy late at night from singing at the pub in front

The cafe in the hotel is actually closed, which wouldn’t have been a problem but there wasn’t any notice before the stay began. The room itself was very spacious and would be great for a family. The kitchen was especially well stocked with cooking equipment. The hotel grounds could use a blow as there is a lot of debris and it just generally looks untidy. The view from the balcony is amazing and at a really great price point. If you’re budget minded with a family, this would be a great hotel to stay. The pool was maintained really well and crystal clear. There was outside uncovered parking which was great for us as we had a large ute. It is located very conveniently and is just a short walk to the marina where many of the tours leave from.

Great holiday stay

We stayed for three days at Water’s Edge Resort. The apartment is spacious with a beautiful sea view. Simple decor, nice furnishings, well equipped kitchen. We felt the holiday mood the instant we stepped into the apartment!The undercover free parking was good. Three swimming pools look great but too cold for us to use them. Supermarket just across the road was very convenient. The only downside was poor WIFI .
