About Azure Sea Whitsunday Resort
Perched high on the hillside amongst lush tropical gardens, Azure Sea Whitsunday Resort offers some of the most spectacular panoramic views in Airlie Beach. Every apartment features a stunning 180-degree vista stretching across the Coral Sea to Hayman Island and beyond. The resort is uniquely designed along contemporary nautical lines, with modern self-contained apartments that feel more like luxury homes than hotel rooms.
Located just 500 metres from the main street, Azure Sea Whitsunday Resort strikes the perfect balance between convenience and tranquillity. You're close enough to walk to restaurants, cafes, bars, and Airlie Beach Lagoon, yet far enough away to escape the noise and crowds. The resort features two stunning outdoor pools, including a spectacular infinity-edge waterfall pool that cascades into the second pool below, all surrounded by tropical landscaped gardens.
One of the standout features of Azure Sea Whitsunday Resort is that all apartments have lift access, making it easy for families with young children, elderly guests, or anyone with mobility concerns. Each apartment comes with secure undercover parking, unlimited high-speed WiFi, full kitchen and laundry facilities, and those incredible covered balconies where you'll probably spend most of your time watching the boats sail by and the sun set over the islands.

"We stayed in a very spacious 3-bedroom unit with self-contained facilities. Nicole and the team were friendly and helpful. The property was secure, well maintained and clean. Easy walking distance to Main Street was handy after trips to restaurants. The views from the balcony were stunning. Loved our stay at Azure. Both rooms were fantastic, not just the penthouse. Very relaxing rooms with great amenities."
TripAdvisor
"Loved the apartment, the view and the pool. Glorious views over to Hayman. The location was very convenient to the middle of the main street and we would drop down for a morning coffee very easily. The apartment was lovely and spacious, most of it looks brand new. Lovely furnishings and big balcony. The manager Trudie was awesome, nothing was a problem. She was fantastic and so very helpful."
Google Reviews
Heads up: The resort is on a hillside with a steep incline. Walking down to town is easy (about 10 minutes), but coming back up can be challenging, especially in the heat or if you're travelling with young kids. Most guests grab a taxi back up for $7-10. The views are absolutely worth it though!

The Location
Nestled high on Raintree Place, Azure Sea Whitsunday Resort sits in a prime hillside position that offers the best of both worlds. You're just 500 metres from Airlie Beach's main street with all its restaurants, bars, and shops, yet elevated enough to enjoy peace, quiet, and those spectacular 180-degree ocean views. The hillside location means you'll be looking down over the town and out to the Whitsunday Islands from your balcony.
