Cabinet above bathroom basin is in the road when trying to use the basin to wash your face or clean your teeth. Suggest cabinet is tilted higher or a shorter one is fitter with greater space above the basin. We could not operate the bench top hot plates and no instructions were provided. Hot water dribbled out of taps and showers.

What's good? Great location, tidy rooms, plenty of family facilities including paid laundry, kitchen and pool. Best price we could find. Free safe parking on-site. 3 min drive from Airlie Beach marina. What's not so good? No flexibility at all in offering early check-in. This might not be suitable for bigger families but it was me and my wife so we managed the 4 hour wait. We do understand that this might not be possible during busy times but when I called to inquire about early check in two days before arrival I was told it's possible (still no assurances) but possible. but when we arrived we were told it's not and that check in is at 2pm. I have to say though after that everything was smooth and we enjoyed our stay so no regrets.

The room was adequate for the money. Very clean. Walls very thin and if you encounter a noisy Neighbor at 2am who turns their TV on and coughs for 30 minutes, this is why I would not be too keen to stay again. Staff were lovely.

The girls at front reception were very helpful and welcoming. We stayed in a pet friendly cabin it was clean, small but good for an overnight stay. Pool area is clean and inviting looks like it has recently had a refurbishment done. Short walk down the road to the convenience store, but a drive to go into town for dinner.
