Nice apartments, views on lower floors are blocked by trees. Either pack a chainsaw or request a higher floor if you want a nice view.

We like to stay in accommodation that has a breakfast/cafe service for a coffee in the mornings without having to go out, so it would have been nice to be informed that their cafe is not currently running

Great place to take the family, with three swimming pools and great views. Great location, just a short walk to everything at Airlie Beach - main street with restaurants, lagoon, beach harbour, Woolworths across the street. Only faults is that some maintenance and furnishings need renewal - sofa seating collapsed, outdoor seating at end of life, noisy exhaust fan in ensuite.

Robyn

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Comfortable and spacious rooms, easy walk to town, however do aim for level 2 or above if you want/pay for an ocean view. Trees have grown to tall and obscure what otherwise a lovely view. We changed rooms due to this factor which was no trouble for staff to accomodate - made a world of difference to our 8 day stay (also our original room definitely had not been renovated as stated on the website)

Loved our stay at Waters Edge in a 2 bedroom apartment. Staff were very welcoming, room was spotless and the infinity pools were amazing with beautiful views. Everything you needed was close by especially the Woolworths across the road. Thoroughly recommend Waters Edge and can’t wait to stay there again.
