Great views, basic accommodation.

Airlie Beach and the Whitsundays is a great destination. Sea Star apartments have fantastic views. But the property itself is pretty basic and the interiors are quite dated. While it is listed (e.g. on Google Maps) as a 4 star hotel, it is in fact a set of apartments with few of the amenities that one would expect in a hotel. If you have a car and are used to self catering, it’s fine. But without a car, you have to rely on taxis from the center of town. Walking down the steep hill is no problem, but walking up is tough; you will be breathing hard and drenched with sweat. And note, if you have any mobility issues, you absolutely cannot stay there. I gave 4 stars because the views are fantastic, the apartment was clean and well kept, we are fit and don’t mind walking up hills, and we didn’t expect a fancy hotel. But do be prepared if you select this property.

The apartment has basic features and a view of million $. Because the pool water was always cold, we enjoyed solitude at the place every time! Only downside was a very loud car leaving every morning before 7 am which was not ideal! Wonderful place otherwise. Staff was quite responsive regarding a minor hot water shortage, which self resolved. Thank you!
