Property is perfect for families. A bit run down but perfect for what we needed. You do have to walk up a small hill to get to the property but it is very walkable. The bathrooms could do with a regrout and silicone

Great Location

Great location being only a short walk to restaurants, shopping and the beach. Clean and spacious however there is a steep walk into the hotel and it was a long walk to our room. Three pools available however all of them are in full sun

This is not a hotel, as per the Expedia info! It is an Apartment building. So no room servicing, unless staying a week. You do get your own washing machine and dryer - which was fantastic (if you’re ok doing your laundry on vacation!). We had to ask for detergent as this was not in our room. The apartment itself was great - everything you could want or need for a stay in Airlie Beach - even included a Nespresso machine! Just be aware of added extras - ie cost to rent beach towels - also not included, as expected if you book from Expedia! Please also be aware that the apartment hotel is on a very steep (but relatively short) incline - if you have mobility issues this might prove extremely difficult as no handrails are provided. Otherwise, access to town is a stones-throw away, Woolworths just across the street (use the delivery short-cut!), and the pools are great!

We really appreciate the last minute accommodation as our flights from Hamilton Island were canceled due to bad weather. The room we had was spacious, clean and the staff checked in on us in case we needed anything. The room was well equipped and a great location - close to the ferry building and the local shops/restaurants!

What a view, even though our room was very 3 star, just wear and tear on furniture, curtains, bathroom. The bed so comfy, pillows great. No housekeeping, $5 hire for pool towels. Totally self contained. Walking distance to Woolworths and the strip. Loved the pool and the view.

WOW WOW WOW. Soooo happy I booked this place. We had a top floor apaprment and it didnt dissapoint. The best views imaginable. (Apartment 50). I will most certainly recommend everyone come to Airlie Beach and to stay at Water's Edge. So close to the main street and woolworths is just across the road! Pools were beautiful and the resort and rooms are well presented. Definitely do yourself a favour and stay here (high level floor) to get those spectacular views. You wont be disappointed. 10/10
