We stayed here for 10 nights and were greeted in a friendly manner and shown to our room, which was presented in a very immaculate fashion. This standard was maintained throughout the whole stay, with great daily service. Best part...definitely the jacuzzi on the balcony!!! Location was also a plus, as it was only a very short walk into town... More

Recently we spent 6 nights here. The accomodation was well set out and very comfortable and private. There are only 6 units and with only adults allowed to stay in was peaceful. The manager was a delight, very friendly and helpful. He kept the place clean and tidy inside and out. Thanks for a wonderful holiday. More

Myself and 3 close girlfriends (all Mums) had a wonderful stay at Waterfront Whitsunday Retreat. 3 days 2 nights, away from our hubby's and children, absolute bliss. We stayed in the 3 bedroom Penthouse with Jacuzzi on the balcony. It's clean, modern, spacious, equipped with everything you could want/need during your stay. Short walk to the main drag. Highly recommend. More

We stayed here for a couple of nights this week. It's a perfect base for a short trip being close to Airlie Beach and easy buses or taxis to get to the harbour for trips to other islands. The room was really quiet (despite schoolies staying in all close-by accomodation!!) and lovely and clean, bed was really comfy and the... More

My husband and I spent 2 nights in a spa suite. The place was big, bright, and spotless. The view was... loud... lots of buildings work going on... The bis disappointment was the service and breakfast. Breakfast was an already prepacked pack of cereal, milk, juice and cookies. Good enough for me but not worthy of a so called luxury... More

My wife and I stayed in the penthouse for our honeymoon in October 2011, and it was just straight out awesome. Pros: The location, the room, the service, the price, the amenities... everything, really. Cons: The view was the only thing even close to a con about this place (read below). The penthouse room is very well equipped and looks... More

Beautiful apartment with a real homely feel but with the luxury you would expect from a penthouse, loved the jacuzzi on the balcony with a bottle of wine after a day cruising the islands of the Whitsundays. Very friendly staff ready to do anything for you, Thankyou for a great experience... More

My fiance and I stayed here in early Sep 2011. Upon arriving at the hotel I was confused as the name out the front didn't match the full name on any of the websites (I think it was abbreviated to Whitsunday Retreat). Moreover, upon entering the room we booked (which was very nicely equipped), the view of the boats in... More
