About Airlie Getaway
Tucked away on Hillcrest Avenue, Airlie Getaway is a spacious three-bedroom holiday home that perfectly balances privacy with convenience. Just 200 metres from Airlie Beach's main street, you're close enough to walk to everything but far enough up the hill to enjoy peace, quiet, and absolutely stunning ocean views.
The home has a lovely Balinese touch to it - not over the top, just enough to make it feel like a proper tropical getaway. The real star is the huge timber deck where you'll probably spend most of your time, whether it's morning coffee watching the sunrise, lazy afternoon drinks, or firing up the BBQ for dinner with those gorgeous ocean and rainforest views stretching out in front of you.
Inside, the three bedrooms are all air-conditioned (you'll appreciate this in summer), and the open-plan kitchen has everything you need if you want to cook. The Bicentennial Walkway is just a gentle stroll away - perfect for morning walks or scenic evening wanders along the coast.
What Guests Are Saying
"The location was magnificent, the views were beautiful, and the house was clean, tidy and well representable."
Cristy, Australia - Booking.com
"Very happy with our recent stay at Airlie Getaway. The property was clean and tidy and the view was exceptional. Position wise it was close to everything, but far enough away to be quiet and peaceful."
Kevin, Australia - Guest Review
"The position and the view were exceptional. The property was well laid out for a group of people."
Schlawe, Australia - Booking.com
Good to know: It's on a hillside location with a gentle incline. The walk down to town and the lagoon is easy (about 5 minutes), but coming back up takes a bit longer. Most guests find it manageable, but if you're not keen on hills, just keep this in mind.

The Location
Airlie Getaway sits on Hillcrest Avenue, which means you get the best of both worlds - hillside views and easy access to everything. You're only 200 metres from the main street, so restaurants, cafes, shops, and the famous Airlie Beach Lagoon are all within a quick five-minute walk. The elevated position means you get gorgeous ocean glimpses and plenty of breeze, plus it's quieter than being right in the middle of town.
What's Nearby
Airlie Beach Main Street: 200m away - literally everything you need. Cafes, restaurants, tour booking offices, bottle shops, convenience stores. You can walk down in about three minutes.
Airlie Beach Lagoon: About 400m down the hill. This free swimming lagoon is open from 6 AM to 9 PM daily with lifeguard supervision. Perfect for morning swims or afternoon lounging. The Saturday Airlie Beach Markets set up right on the foreshore.
Coral Sea Marina: 1km walk (about 12 minutes). Most Whitsunday tours depart from here, so it's handy being close. The marina village has nice cafes and restaurants if you fancy waterfront dining.
Bicentennial Walkway: Just down the road from Airlie Getaway. This scenic coastal path winds along the waterfront and is brilliant for morning or evening walks with ocean views the whole way.
From Your Deck
The deck at Airlie Getaway is where you'll want to spend your mornings and evenings. You get sweeping ocean views out to the islands, rainforest-covered hills, and enough space to really spread out. Morning coffee watching the sunrise is pretty special, and sunset drinks with the BBQ going are even better. The Balinese styling adds to the tropical holiday vibe without being over the top.
