The room was quite spacious, and the location was excellent, very close to the main street. We even had birds visiting our balcony, from where we could see the sea. The room was reasonably clean, and the bed was large. Overall, it was great and very satisfying.

The hotel's location is unbeatable, right on Airlie Beach's main street. It's super close to restaurants and perfect for just relaxing by the sea. Our courtyard room on the ground floor was lovely and quiet, which we were really pleased with!

The hotel's location is fantastic, right on the main street. However, there's been some construction downstairs recently, with drilling noises starting at 8 AM. So, at the moment, it's perfect for early birds! 😂
The weather wasn't great during this trip, so we couldn't go out to sea, which was a bit of a shame. But before we left, we finally saw the blue sky, white clouds, and the beautiful coastline – definitely worth the trip! Looking forward to my next visit, I'll still choose to stay at the Airlie Beach Hotel. ☺️

This hotel is really not good. There's a bar right downstairs that's incredibly loud, playing music until 3 AM. It's completely unsuitable for a vacation. Two thumbs down!

Let's start with the positives: the location is incredibly convenient, and they even have their own restaurant. A pleasant surprise was seeing cockatoos visiting daily.
However, the downsides were quite noticeable. There was construction noise every day, which really disturbed my rest. One day it started as early as 7:28 AM, and in the afternoons, from around 2 PM to 4 PM, there was almost constant noise. The duvet was a layered type, which felt unhygienic and difficult to use, and the sheets kept slipping off, making for an uncomfortable sleep. Additionally, the bathroom didn't have a separate wet and dry area, and daily housekeeping didn't include cleaning the bathroom.

The room was clean and bright, and the bedding was soft and comfortable. The front desk service was warm, but the lady at the front desk seemed a bit impatient with the group checking in before me, who weren't very good at English. The location is excellent, with plenty of dining options nearby. Overall, the experience exceeded my expectations and offered great value for money. I'll definitely choose to stay here again.

There are many restaurants downstairs and in the surrounding area. It's close to the beach, but not many people swim there. The open-air swimming pool by the sea is 200 meters away, clean and suitable for swimming. If you want to take a boat trip or a small plane tour, there's a car service to pick you up from the hotel. The location is excellent.

I stayed in a courtyard room located in the annex building at the back. It was relatively quieter, though the hotel's bar played loud music daily. The room wasn't spacious, comparable to a motel room, and was generally clean. A minor inconvenience was that the shower only had a curtain, with no separate space to hang clothes or place toiletries. Similarly, the bathroom itself lacked hooks or shelves for hanging or placing items. There was only one switch for all three lights and the exhaust fan in the bathroom, meaning they all operated simultaneously, which was quite inconvenient. Plus, the exhaust fan was extremely loud. The bathroom odor was manageable, as we could just close the door and open the window. The mattress in the room was quite comfortable. Visiting Airlie Beach in September was perfect; we didn't even need to use the air conditioning. The location was excellent, very close to all tour pick-up points, right at the end of the main street. The hotel's own pool was quite small, but thankfully, there was a beautiful public lagoon nearby that we could easily use instead. The beach across from the hotel offered free BBQ facilities with excellent views and was noticeably quieter than the main town center. Overall, it was an acceptable stay.

The front desk staff at this hotel were very welcoming; they seemed to be of Southeast Asian background. The room was quite spacious, especially the bathroom. However, when I returned at 9 PM, the elevators were out of service, even though it wasn't a high floor. Overall, this island felt livelier than Han Island, but it lacked a bit of a resort feel. Also, the lively restaurant and bar downstairs offers great value for money – definitely worth a try!

The room was pretty average overall, but the location was decent. I think there might be some newer hotels on the main street, so it's worth checking out other options.

The room was spotless, and the balcony offered a direct sea view. The location was incredibly convenient – just a few minutes' walk to the main street, and bus stops for excursions were also very close. Even though we booked via an online platform, pick-up and drop-off services were still provided.

Absolutely loved this hotel! Its central location makes it incredibly convenient for shopping and strolling along the main street. Being right by the beach with a sea view from the balcony was a personal highlight for me.
