Romantic accommodation, honeymoons & holidays Airlie Beach & Whitsunday Islands
For ultimate romance, think no further than the Whitsunday Islands or Airlie Beach, a thriving town full of charm and interest and the gateway to the Whitsunday Islands (Hamilton Island, Hayman Island, Whitehaven Beach, Lindeman Island, Long Island to name a few) and the Great Barrier Reef.

A honeymoon spent at Airlie Beach and/or the Whitsunday Islands will be one where you are surrounded by some of the most awe-inspiring natural scenery. Imagine a honeymoon or holiday sailing on your own luxury cruiser or yacht free to discover the beautiful islands - with or without personal staff to cater to your every whim. Or simply go sailing for the day, snorkel and scuba dive at the second largest dive destination in Australia, the Fantasea Reefworld; water ski, explore rainforests, go horseriding or just indulge and relax in your fabulous and luxurious accommodation on a tropical island or the mainland.

And, with so many fly in fly out options, the Whitsundays and Airlie Beach are the perfect short break, weekend getaway or romantic getaway destination too! Around 1,125 kilometres north of Brisbane and 725 kilometres south of Cairns, the Whitsundays has been blessed with incredible gifts from nature. The word awe-inspiring really is so very overused, but it is appropriate when describing the Whitsundays. A honeymoon, holiday, short break, or weekend away at The Whitsundays will be an indulgence you will never regret.
