Bounce Airlie Beach is really well positioned if you want to explore town, the beaches, the laguna and meet up with friends and go out partying - At the same time the location is quiet and you can get a really good nights sleep. Theres a very good vibe around, with the in house bar and the very well equipped kitchen. Would definitely recommend!

Room was large with basic kitchen facilities and private bathroom. Right on the beach with balcony and nice view of the park. Good value for money compared to other properties in this area. Wifi and air conditioning was good. Good curtains that keep out the light. I arrived after hours and received code to collect keys from lockbox, which was very easy. Keep in mind there is a lot of noise from Magnums in the main street but once the windows were closed the room was quiet which was good.

I think we had the room with the best view! Our balcony overlooked the beautiful gardens and the sea/beach. It was incredible as we arrived just before sunset. Enjoyed our morning cuppa on the balcony watching all the beautiful birds including a peacock! The room was spacious and clean as was the bathroom. Great location for us travelling back to Cairns. Bowen looked like a lovely beach resort town and we would have liked to have had more time there to explore. would highly recommend this hotel.

The hammock on the verandah - it was hard to leave. Looking up at the palm trees in the day and then the moon and stars at night - so relaxing. Being on the beachfront was perfect and listening to the soothing ocean sounds.

This is the perfect little hideaway from the hustle and bustle of Airlie Beach. It offers great accommodation with stunning views, continental breakfast and a courtesy bus into Airlie. Just a short stroll from your room you will find Northerlies, a great restaurant right on the beach.

We loved the location of the studio which was right on the beach. The studio was quite roomy and clean. The bed was comfortable and plenty of room in the kitchenette. The staff were very friendly too. Loved having undercover parking.

The location right on the beach front was just beautiful. Rooms overlooking the pool & ocean were amazing. The service was great with all our requests catered to. Our stay was relaxing and made us feel welcomed. A perfect adults only resort to stay at without the kids.
