The owners provide a great, friendly service and trust the paying public, there guests to behave in a manner with the setting and hospitality they offer. The cabins are lovely, the area lush, every thing is clean and tidy and what you would expect. BUT BUT why can't the people staying here be bloody respectful to one another, we came... More

ok, it's not the Mirage or the Hyatt but seriously, at this price you can't even get a decent meal in Airlie beach so I was overwhelmed with the bargain price of $59.00 in a private room. I will be honest...If I am staying in a hotel, I always stay in 4 to 5 star properties only because there is... More

Absolutely love this place, clean rooms with great air con, nice pool with several fully equipped kitchen areas. The owners (Shirley and Bruce) are the nicest, friendliest, helpful couple made our stay here great, we've been here 2 months while working on a local farm to get our 2nd year visa (we're english backpackers) for the same price as staying...

When we arrived, the friendly and helpful attitude of the... More

Really enjoyed our stay at Kipara Tropical Rainforest Retreat, the villa was perfect had everything we had hoped for and we managed to not get cabin fever even with 5 people in the room. The staff were so helpful and accommodating we originally booked for 4 people over new years 2012/2013 but last minute we had a friend travel from... More

Thank you Bruce and Shirley, I work in the industry in Airlie and required somewhere to stay whilst waiting on my long term accommodation to become available. I found what was on offer to be affordable very clean and comfortable. Kipara has the benefit of being located in a lovely setting and I found my stay to be peaceful and... More
