Stayed here for a family holiday after it was recommended by a family member. Our room was clean, comfortable, spacious and had a beautiful ocean view. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff who were, without exception, friendly, helpful and professional. - Bruce

What a spectacular place to stay. The resort itself is easily accessible to main street of Airlie. We stayed in an ocean deluxe room with stunning views. The room was cleaned and serviced daily. The resort has the iconic pool with a vibe atmosphere and postcard views. Highly recommend Coral Sea Resort for any occasion - Anastasia

We stayed at the resort for 3 nights in a spa deluxe room. The view was BEAUTIFUL! The room was always clean and stocked with fresh linen. The perfect location for someone who does not want to stay in the bustle of Airlie’s main strip. Best thing was it was a 5 minute FLAT walk to the Main Street or a $5-8 taxi. All staff were lovely especially waitstaff and reception. We cannot wait to come back! - Georgia

We had a four night stay in an Ocean View Spa Deluxe room and all we can say is WOW!! We were incredibly blown away by the facilities and location, cleanliness of the room and most importantly the amazing staff. All the staff were kind and friendly. An incredible stay for our 10 year wedding anniversary. We will be back! - Natalia
