Reviews for Coral Sea Resort

The room (mostly), pool and proximity to main hub are pretty good, but this is not a luxury hotel or resort. The breakfast is abysmal. It’s a continental breakfast with no hot food. They were out of fruit every single morning no matter what time we came. The only hot food is $30 for a big breakfast and it’s possibly the worst you can find in all of Airlie. The bar and restaurant in general are just so poor it dilutes the whole experience. The ocean view room had a nice view but only on L3, our friends in L2 paid the same amount but had a much worse view. The bed and pillows are terrible quality, and they have no additional pillow service. If you’re willing to leave to eat out each meal and use this place as a base for activities then great, but would not recommended for those who enjoy a more premium stay.

An amazing romantic weekend getaway. Loved it. The views amazing. Staff very helpful. Location perfect, close to shops, restaurants, bars and woolies. Walking distance to everything. All sorts of rooms available depending if you prefer noise like me so I changed my room to be on top of the restaurant as I could hear the music and have a great view of the ocean or a very quite room with views of the bay and Arlie Beach Ferris Wheel. Both were lovely and spacious. Definitely would recommend.

We’ve had an amazing time here. We always had a room with balcony spa overlooking the ocean. We had our wedding night here. We had our one year anniversary and we had my wife’s 50th birthday celebration with dinner served on the pier over the ocean . The food is absolutely amazing. Try their miso glazed barramundi - it’s super delicious!! The sunsets are spectacular and the resort could be anywhere in the world and be a five or six star standard in Greece or south of France. The restaurant overlooking the pool and ocean and mountain sunsets is always busy so make sure you book well in advance.The bar serves the most amazing cocktails and Sally the great bar and resort Manager is always welcoming and very helpful. We keep coming back here because this is probably the most spectacular place in Airlie Beach. And the best part is it’s only 10 minutes drive from where we live but we probably fly halfway around the world to get here. Rather saw other places we went to where we did fly halfway around the world and then realised we should’ve come here.

MAKE PROMISES AND FULFIL THEM (LACK OF RELIABILITY / HONESTY / SERVICE) We spent two nights at the Coral Sea Resort at the beginning of August 2025. Unfortunately, however, we do not have good memories of our stay in terms of the reliability, honesty, and service of the hotel. The following happened: After we left, we realized that our daughter had forgotten her beloved cuddly toy in the hotel room. After contacting the hotel, we were told that the stuffed animal had been found. We asked for the cuddly toy to be sent to our home address in Germany at our expense. We were then asked to get a shipping label ourselves and send it to the hotel. We had hoped for some assistance from the hotel at this point, as we, being foreign guests, were unfortunately unfamiliar with the Australian postal/parcel services. However, due to the high emotional importance of the cuddly toy for our daughter, we naturally acquired and paid for the parcel label and sent it to the hotel. Ten weeks have now passed and the cuddly toy has still not been sent. In the meantime, we have sent four further requests/reminders to the hotel asking them about the status and to send the cuddly toy. In each of these emails, we were assured that the cuddly toy was still there and would be sent shortly. We have repeatedly put off and reassured our daughter, promising her (as we were assured by the hotel) that she would soon be able to hold her beloved stuffed animal in her arms again. Unfortunately, nothing has happened! We are very disappointed and would have expected a different level of service and, above all, honesty and reliability from a hotel in this price range. We will now try to explain to our daughter that she will not be getting her favorite stuffed animal back. Dear reader or interested guest: Unfortunately, you have to ask yourself how reliable and honest the hotel's promises are.

Coral Sea Resort is a fantastic place to stay! We were pleasantly surprised by how close it is to the main township of Airlie Beach—conveniently located, yet far enough away to remain peaceful and relaxing. A special thanks to the manager, Dylan, who made our booking process so easy. He was incredibly patient, accommodating last-minute changes with understanding. Upon check-in, he kindly helped us with our bags and went out of his way several times during our stay to assist us, including helping with the air conditioning and safe (we’re in our 80s). Nothing was ever too much trouble for him. The food was absolutely to die for, and the housekeeping team were always cheerful and friendly when we met them in the hallways. We’ve decided to make Coral Sea Resort our regular place to stay and are already looking forward to our next visit!
