It was comfortable

It was comfortable, but the property was a bit old. The bed was comfortable, which is the main thing. The furniture needs updating a bit. I don't believe the pool picture reflects the property too well

Leslie and Steve were perfect hosts, available yet non-invasive. Apartment was huge and clean with great aircon and fans if required. Walking distance to Main St and the lagoon but it's a feisty climb back up the hill. Some lighting along the very steep driveway would be good for pedestrians and drivers alike, who must share the private road. Would return and recommend to others.

Great views, basic accommodation.

Airlie Beach and the Whitsundays is a great destination. Sea Star apartments have fantastic views. But the property itself is pretty basic and the interiors are quite dated. While it is listed (e.g. on Google Maps) as a 4 star hotel, it is in fact a set of apartments with few of the amenities that one would expect in a hotel. If you have a car and are used to self catering, it’s fine. But without a car, you have to rely on taxis from the center of town. Walking down the steep hill is no problem, but walking up is tough; you will be breathing hard and drenched with sweat. And note, if you have any mobility issues, you absolutely cannot stay there. I gave 4 stars because the views are fantastic, the apartment was clean and well kept, we are fit and don’t mind walking up hills, and we didn’t expect a fancy hotel. But do be prepared if you select this property.
