Dissapointment. Dont judge by the photos
Cons:

Super dirty. I dont complain on here ever, but, Everything covered in dust and gecko poo. I get we are in the tropics but they could have at least cleaned the place. Toastie machine was full of old food. Plates and bowls covered in dust and insects. Cockroaches. Tiny little plug in AC unit so if its wet season you have to put up with a really noisy unit or sweat. Overall left a bad taste in the mouth for what you pay you definitely arent getting your moneys worth. Airbnb stlye accomodation except there is no cleaner. Spend your money elsewhwere

Good quiet stay
Pros:

The room was nice and large with amenities like fridge, towels, etc. provided. Bed was super comfortable! Owner was very helpful, welcomed when arriving late at night.

Cons:

There was still rubbish in the bin, fridge wasn't turned on, some basic plates and cutlery missing. It would have been nice to have essentials like salt, pepper, tea/coffee etc. in the room.

Could hear noise coming from the people living upstairs which was annoying when it got late at night. Quite far from Airlie Beach town, fine if you have your own car.

Pros:

we were stranded due to flight mechanical issues whilst on the tarmac and got accomodation at Coral Sea Resort but there were some issues with their booking and they cancelled our room last minute and we found this hidden gem late in the day after a very stressful day. It was boat race week and there was no accomodation left except backpacker accomodation. We were pleasantly suprised with this accomodation. It reminded us of Bali and the shower pressure was fanastic. A comfortable room for a great price. Lots of options for pizza or fastfood and coles within walking distance.

Cons:

Not close to Airlie Beach, would need to use car or taxi to get to Airlie Beach.

appalling service
Pros:

They are very misleading. We were not given correct checkin details and the room we though we were in was not cleaned so my staff left. We were then told the next day we went to the wrong room. Like i told them they gave us incorrect check in details that did not clearly state what our room number was. We then had to book additional accomodation and they would not refund. Worst accomodation in airlie beach by far.

Cons:

Everything

Pros:

The location was good near the beach and the shops.

Cons:

The guy put us in the wrong room and told me off for using the outdoor cooker as its only for 1 room to use even though it looks communal.
I personally wouldn't stay there again, the a/c is portable so very noisy and was not on or the fridge plugged in so everything took along time to cool down.
The owner made you feel uncomfortable you can tell straight away its his house so I felt I couldn't use or touch anything.
Do yourself a favour and spend just a little bit more for something 10 times better. Was so happy to be leaving in the morning after not much sleep.
It advertised a bbq which it didn't have , as we had bought food to cook on the bbq. He definitely needs to lift his game when it comes to his bnb.

Basic Comfortable Accommodation
Pros:

Eclectic vibe

Cons:

Tv didn't work for the movie to relax before bed. No little extras you would expect such as tea or coffee or little soaps, easy enough to bring my own next time though.
