Luxury accommodation is the order of the day in Airlie Beach. There are a number of new apartment style resorts in Airlie Beach that fall into the luxe accommodation category and the added bonus is that most of it has superb ocean views to compliment the quality of the resorts. Airlie Beach is a very hilly district with the Cape Conway National Park behind and this unique topography has been utilised by local developers to design beautiful resorts that are built into the hillsides and take advantage of the fabulous views over the Coral Sea to the north of the town.

Several locations around Airlie Beach have been popular with the developers who have provided most of the the best in luxury lodgings around the town. The Abel Point marina precinct is one of these with the waterfront area at the western end of the boat harbour now dotted with new luxury developments. As most of these have marina frontage or marina views they are conveniently located for those wanting to join one of the local yacht charter boat fleet for a cruise to the Great Barrier Reef or a sailing or snorkelling and scuba trip around the surrounding islands of the Whitsunday Passage.
