The room in this old style motel was comfortable. Right in the centre of town next to the Lagoon. Easy access to everything. On site parking, Not peaceful at night however. Being so close to pubs and nightlife the noise from the street with people shouting etc wasn’t good. For two nights out of three it went on well after midnight. Very disturbed night.

Excellent location. View of the lagoon from the balcony. Good-sized fridge which I did use plus cooking gear which I didn't. Didn't have the room made for my 4-night stay tho.

Great central location close to shops and restaurants, owner is friendly and very helpful. Very noisy due to pub music and nightclub across the road and the public lagoon to the other side with annoying mine worker blasting music on a speaker all day which is not the fault of the owner but does impact your sleep and experience. Room was a bit run down but clean and beds are comfortable. Overall if i were to visit Airlie beach again i would stay here, there are locked gates that made us feel a lot safer with all the drunk riff raff at night
