Cool location with nice units. The only letdown is lack of wi-fi in the rooms. We had to go to the kitchen for a connection.

Got a small but extremely clean and comfortable renovated room which we loved! The communal kitchen was clean and well equipped. A bit outside of the hustle of Airlie Beach so a car is required. Staff was friendly and helpful, perfect communication. Would recommend to everyone!

The unit I had is beginning to show its age with a yellowish toilet tank cover and flooring in the bathroom that is a bit tired. Other than the cosmetics, everything works and is very clean. The staff are great, it has an excellent cooking area with very good commercial equipment. The units are prefabricated steel buildings which are visually pleasing. My bed was great, the linens were great, and overall I would return in a heartbeat. I stayed 4 nights. The rates were very reasonable. The complex is a bit confusing at they own two properties, the first is nearest town, and the second is 100 m further down the road where their reception/office area is located. My accommodation was in the second complex.

Great staff

We stayed 5 nights and the staff were very accommodating. Shirley & Bruce are a lovely couple who really care about their guests. The resort is in the rainforest which is a little far from town but the bus stops near the resort.
