“This place seems geared towards sociable travellers; beach volleyball, swimming pools, and even a laundry are on site. Add spacious, air-conditioned rooms to the mix, and you've got a solid base for exploring Airlie Beach's nightlife, particularly with Justin, the party rep, knowing all the hot spots. The reopening of Shed Bar is a big plus.”
