Sarah was friendly & helpful. Room features such as spa / kitchen / coffee / King bed / netflix / balcony / car park were great for price. Last minute booking 5 mins before we arrived in Airlie Beach after hours but still were able to get straight into room with instructions from text message.

Just could not see the ocean but that was ok - still a good view of marina

Very good location. Very nice facilities. Lovely beds

The only negative was that the penthouse main double middle shower head does not work properly. Ceiling fans were not clean. Had very bad hayfever. And main aircon in living room has a fault so it won’t stay on

Beautiful view of the marina and water, small, quiet property which felt as we had the place to ourselves. Horizon pool, private spa bath and bbq area, these spaces were used every day and we enjoyed very much. The room was very spacious!! Bed was very comfortable and kitchen was well equipped

We have stayed before and the rooms have had an uplift since we last stayed and feels much fresher, modern, and nicer in general. Spa bath on the balcony is what we enjoy most about the room, very relaxing.

Nothing, all was very nice.

The location is great, with only a few minutes to town for meals. Pool was lovely, view was also great. It was nice having a spa on the balcony.

The bathrooms are very tired and probably need an update. Not enough bench space in the bathroom. Tea towel is needed in the kitchen.
