Base Airlie Beach Resort - Hostel
2.0 star property
6.4 out of 10, (226)
"Was a bit apprehensive booking this after reading a lot of bad reviews about the cleanliness, however my room was perfectly clean. It’s very basic and definitely a bit tired but is pretty much what I’d expect for the price and type of accommodation. Shower was very bad though, at some points just big drops of water.

9.6 out of 10, Exceptional, (627)
"This was a beautiful property and we loved staying here. The views from our 3 storey villa were amazing. Kitchen was well equipped. There were a few maintenance issues which need addressing such as broken wardrobe drawers and a cover over the access to the workings of the bathroom spa which looked like a drawer and nearly landed on my feet when I tried to open it. One of the 3 bathrooms (master) shower water pressure wasn’t great and the door out of the shower to the outdoor shower balcony...
