Perfect peaceful getaway for couples. A bit away from the main area of Airlie Beach so a car is handy to explore. Staff were so friendly and breakfast is a perfect start to the day!

I was advised that there is a complimentary shuttle bus and can be adjust if any of us need the bus earlier than 11am but didn’t mention that there is a strict 11am starting route . That’s why I booked with Freedom Shores even they are quite far from the center (15-20 mins driving )but if I had to choose again the distance will put me off rebooking with them. Otherwise all the rest was excellent.

You cant get a better slice of paradise than Freedom Shores. We love this place for its tranquil surroundings yet so close to Northerlies for a relaxing drink, eat and vibe. The staff are so welcoming and friendly and they make you feel comfortable with children as part of the booking. We love this place, nothing to improve.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
This was the worst property and I didn’t even stay there. It’s very far from anything so we had dinner and what was supposed to be complimentary drinks (I’m ann Expedia gold member) and then we left to a place more central. I was shocked that I was charged for the drinks! After several rude messages from the hotel I’ll have to pursue the reimbursement from my credit card. I didn’t sign for the drinks so I’m pretty sure they can’t do that. Also there’s a pond that you have to pass to check in and there was a snake inside. No thanks! I am happy with my decision to not stay there but very disappointed in the rudeness. I wasn’t expecting that.
