Great central location close to shops and restaurants, owner is friendly and very helpful. Very noisy due to pub music and nightclub across the road and the public lagoon to the other side with annoying mine worker blasting music on a speaker all day which is not the fault of the owner but does impact your sleep and experience. Room was a bit run down but clean and beds are comfortable. Overall if i were to visit Airlie beach again i would stay here, there are locked gates that made us feel a lot safer with all the drunk riff raff at night

Great Getaway

We stayed for 3 nights and had a room close to the lagoon. Very comfortable however there was a bit of noise from the unit above. There was also construction being completed next door which started very early in the morning and sounded like it was in our room! Other than the noise the place was perfect. Close to absolutely everything with ample parking and security. The host was extremely helpful and provided us great options to explore. All dining options were within walking distance.

An amazing location, right on the main street and backing onto the lagoon, but the hotel is pretty tired and in need of a refresh. If you want to be right in town, but on a budget, this is a good option.
