It pains me a little to write this review because our apartment was lovely and well appointed and the location is fantastic, on the flat part of Airlie and close to shops and restaurants. Our private roof top terrace was ideal for relaxing and the pool was enjoyable with a nice temperature. The big problem was the relentless traffic noise virtually all day, and this is the only reason we would not return.

Such a wonderful place. Position is perfect, so close to everything. Colleen and John were wonderful hosts. Quick to help us with extra accommodation. Large and fully self contained units with a perfect view of the ocean and marina. And a hot tub with a view was excellent. To top it off and amazing pool to cool off and relax at. Thanks for making our anniversary stay special.

Look no further for the perfect place to stay when visiting Airlie/Whitsundays. Perfect for couples, and perfect for families. We stayed with 4 adults and a 3 year old. My 3 year old keeps telling us how beautiful our holiday house is 😂 and he is right! The views are immaculate, it’s a 1-2 minute walk into town, a 5 minute walk to Port of Airlie for tours to Hamilton Island, Daydream Island etc. We stayed in a 2 bedroom with private rooftop with jacuzzi and BBQ, which is incredible, but if you didnt want to go for the private rooftop, the shared pool is beautiful with stunning views and from our experience is rarely full unlike some other places I have visited where the pool is full of people. The apartments are so clean and spacious, I could live in them full time. John and Colleen are the best hosts you will find, so kind and accommodating and up for a yarn. Will stay here every time I visit the Whitsundays without question.…

After weeks of travelling on a cruise ship and staying in hotels, motels and cabins, it was a pleasure to spend three nights in a spacious Portside Whitsunday apartment with distinct living, eating and sleeping areas. Our unit was nicely furnished and very much like the many comfortable time-share properties we have stayed in over the years. It was good to have our own private terrace and to be only a few steps away from the pool. The owners, Colleen and John, were friendly and helpful with excellent guidance on local tour companies, shuttle buses, etc. At first sight, the location of Portside Whitsunday Apartments seems just OK. However, it didn’t take long for us to realize that it was actually an excellent spot, with the local shuttle buses stopping right outside the door and the main shopping/restaurant area starting just 100 yards away. Being at one end of the town, the apartments were also close to the start of the 3.5km coastal walk to Cannonvale Bay that took us past marinas, swimming lagoons, secluded coves and some attractive properties. Another bonus of the location was that it did not require a hill climb to reach, unlike much of Airlie Beach accommodation on the steep slopes above the town. We would happily return to the very pleasant little town of Airlie Beach and to the Portside Whitsunday Apartments.…

We stayed in a studio apartment for a couple of nights on the end of a longer stay elsewhere in Airlie. We were delighted by the standard and cleanliness of the room. Bed super comfortable, shower great, views spot on. Colleen and John are friendly and helpful. Booked our transfers and offered a ( free) later checkout. 😀 Heated pool is deep: spa not working now, but nice to sit in and admire the view across to the marina. Garden areas manicured well. Easy short walk to cafes and town centre. Sloping walk up through car park and to lifts did not worry us, but may for others. Highly recommend.

We were celebrating our 30th wedding anniversary and wanted a lovely room with a view (which we had specifically asked for). Unfortunately we were allocated room number one which had very little view as the garden obscures any view at all and a huge electrical pole is directly In front of this room. The pool was right next to this room which did not make it very private either. The room was comfortable and fairly spacious with a kitchen which we didn’t use. The bathroom was adequate but lacked some little things like a soap holder in the shower and extra towel rails. Little extra touches would make it easier to use. The toilet had a tendency to block easily and on occasion we had to use the outdoor pool toilet as the room’s one was blocked. The location of this property is good as it is walking distance to the shops, restaurants and the marina, but keep in mind the busy road is directly in front. Despite our initial disappointment we still had a wonderful time in Airlie beach and hope to return one day but probably staying elsewhere. If we were on a higher level the rating for this review would be much higher.…

We visited Daydream & Hamilton Island before Airlie Beach on our honeymoon and Portside was by far our favourite place we stayed! Colleen and John were so helpful and informative, the rooms were incredibly clean and tidy and it had awesome air conditioning, which was perfect in 95% humidity. The location is amazing- close to Port of Airlie, close to the Main Street and all of the best restaurants. We had Room 16, which had our own little staircase opening out onto the street, which was perfect! No big hills to climb!! We had the one bedroom apartment with a spa, which we enjoyed in the afternoons as the day cooled down. Earlier in the day, during the heat we cooled down in the pool, which has the most beautiful view. Our only regret is not staying longer!

Great stay after we got changed from lower room # 16 located at front of hotel close to the road it didn't feel private at all and staying with our 15month old the room had internal stairs not safe for our walking toddler we soon got changed to a higher level room #12 which was amazing the stairs to rooftop where just out our front door all very private. The views where amazing! Beds very very comfortable and apartment was lovely. Air con works great also. Only down fall where there where a few stairs up to 3rd floor no lift which could be tiring but great if you like a work. The noise from main street was a little loud in our room and no blockout curtains made it hard if you like a day sleep. I didn't get pics of room but is lovely with 2 bedroom private roof top Jacuzzi with bbq, all utensils and cooking needs avalible.…
