    Relaxing beach stay at cute accommodations

    There were a couple of very minor things in the room that could have been updated (shower door handle, bathroom garbage).

    The location is nice and quiet — they even provide a free bus service that is quite convenient. We only had to take a taxi once and it was because we needed to leave for a snorkelling adventure at 7:00am, so the bus wasn’t operating yet. The staff was also really kind and helpful! Lastly, the on-site restaurant, Northerlies, is really good! I would recommend the octopus salad and the chicken sandwich.

    The location and views were absolutely incredible!! Stunning is an understatement. The landscaping and design of the boat cabin right down to the sea view and restaurant. All the lights make it so magical at night time.

    The size of the hotel is slightly small and the location is a bit out of the way.

    The theme of the hotel and style was very tropical. Breakfast included was a nice touch and staff were very friendly. The view was also spectacular.

    Rooms are small and no where comfortable to sit inside except on the bed. We were unlucky it rained and no undercover to sit outside our room.

    Northerlies Bar is amazing and convenient. The accommodation is quirky and fun.

    The reception closes at 6pm, this means the lounge/lobby is also closed. The accommodation does not have any indoor seating. Not great if there's lots of rain.

    Cute boat themed accommodation a 15 minute drive from Airlie. Great views and a restaurant beside the accommodation.

    The property is quite off the beaten track, not near to any shops and cannot be accessed by public transport. You need a car, or a reliable taxi service. 123Cabs can take some time to arrive/confirm - luckily reception will happily help you book one, but this cannot be done in advance. No fault of the property but there were lots of horseflies in the reception/breakfast area which made it hard to fully enjoy breakfast.

    Gorgeous and unique accommodation. Friendly and helpful staff. Lovely setting. Good breakfast and mini-bar selection. Very relaxing. The rooms/cabins have all the modern facilities, including mini-fridge, kettle plus tea & coffee, A/C, iron and ironing board, hairdryer, pool towels, etc and feel very comfortable and the design is well-thought out. They even provide bug spray in each room.

    Nothing! The only improvement I could offer would be to somehow incorporate room service from Northerlies to the hotel. Currently you are able to call and order but still need to pick up your food and while it's not a far walk, a full room service menu would add to the feeling of luxury.

    Stunning surrounds and incredible views. This place truly is like a resort you could find on any tropical island! Our room felt very private and the bed was one of the best I've ever slept in. Continental breakfast by the pool each morning was wonderful and the short walk to amazing food at Northerlies was super convenient. While we didn't use it, the offer of a free shuttle into town was also a great option.
