Whitsunday Sands Resort is uniquely located on its own private peninsula, by the turquoise waters of the Great Barrier Reef. It offers all guests private access to 2 separate, magnificent beaches. On the eastern side of the resort is Horseshoe Bay, rated as one of the best beaches in Australia, while on the western side is the picturesque Greys Bay. You can enjoy watching the sunrise and sunset over the water on the main land, from the resort.

This absolute beachfront property is a 5-minute drive from Bowen Golf Course and a 7-minute drive from Bowen Summergarden Cinemas. It's our second time staying at Whitsunday Sands Resorts. Enjoyed it the first time and loved it the second time. Will definitely be back again!!

Situated in Airlie Beach, Bounce Airlie Beach has a garden, shared lounge, bar, and free WiFi throughout the property. The property is set 4.3 km from Whitsunday Art Gallery. The accommodation features evening entertainment and a shared kitchen.

Popular points of interest near the accommodation include Airlie Beach, Coral Sea Marina and Port of Airlie Marina. Hamilton Island Airport is 31 km from the property. All the spaces you have to chill out. Even when is full, you feel you have space for yourself. And it’s clean as well. I like the rooms, probably will need the curtains but I really like them. The showers are also spacious. Also big props to the crew, they were really helpful and I really appreciated that mostly. There’s a lot of fun activities as well for those who don’t have many plans or want to meet up with other travellers.

We can't fault anything about our stay. Communication was excellent. Everything was focused on our enjoyment and comfort throughout. The apartment had everything you could need and is in the perfect location. It was very peaceful, just a short walk to the main street and many cafes/restaurants. It was an amazing ending to our months break. Would definitely recommend and hope to get back some day. Thank you.
