Had a very disappointing experience at Azure Sea Resort after traveling all the way from the USA with two young kids. The room given to us was in poor condition and completely unsuitable for a family. When we raised our concerns, the staff mentioned a possible refund but said the owner wasn’t available to make any decisions — as if a refund would help after such a long journey. We were left standing at reception, exhausted and frustrated, for over an hour with no real solution offered. Only after a heated exchange were we finally given a different room. The entire experience was stressful, poorly managed, and far from what you’d expect from a resort. We would not recommend this place to families or anyone looking for a smooth and relaxing holiday.

Great pool

The swimming pool is the highlight of this property, its beautiful and fun. The rooms are relatively clean but can definitely be better. The area under the beds are disgusting. The hallways have a musty smell which is not very inviting. It would be nice to have some body wash and body lotion as its hard to travel with those due to weight. Some towels for the pool area in the room will also be nice so that bath towels don't have to be used. Overall a nice place to stay.

Airlie Beach Azure

My stay at the Azure Sea Whitsunday Resort was somewhat disappointing. Rather than listing a series of basic issues that could have made my stay a far more pleasant, I would simply say the standard of basic facilities was completely missing (unloved). The management are aware of the issues I raised. On the positive side the location and view from the apartment was outstanding. The swimming pool and outdoor setting (including BBQ area) takes full advantage of the view.
