About this property

The Point Whitsundays – Iconic tropical couples retreat @ The Great Barrier Reef

Enjoy your own tropical paradise from this iconic property with the best views in The Whitsundays. Luxurious, self-contained accommodation with unsurpassed views overlooking The Great Barrier Reef! Swim in your exclusive 10m infinity pool and relax in the magnesium Jacuzzi while taking in the mesmerizing scenery.

Extraordinary accommodation with floor-to-ceiling windows to take in nature's spectacular beauty. Very unique, offering the best of both worlds, it’s the perfect base - your retreat away from the crowds but close to vibrant Airlie Beach.

The view constantly transforms with the ebb and flow of tides, tropical weather, passing boats in the harbour, and the rainforest covered mountains of Conway National Park plunging into the water across the bay. Look out for sea turtles, whales, dolphins, and dugongs. During whale season (May-Oct) Humpback whales give birth very closeby - it’s so enchanting that leaving will be the last thing on your mind!

You'll have the best of both worlds - you’re only 8km away from the cafes and restaurants of vibrant Airlie Beach, yet it feels like a world apart.

New Years at The Point Whitsundays
My wife and I had an amazing stay at The Point. The views are awesome and the accommodations excellent. My wife, loves birds, and she had a great time trying to spot all the birds included in the compendium provided by Kathryn and Ron. We highly recommend the property!

Absolutely stunning
We have never stayed anywhere as beautiful as the point. Catherine was so lovely and helpful and the property looks better than what you see in the photos. Everywhere was spotless and really made us feel at home. We cannot wait to be back

Best sunrise and sunsets
Loved the location of this property with fantastic sunrises and sunsets. Was hard to move onto Airlie Beach after this & look forward to returning in the future. Enjoyed cooking brekkie and dinner on the BBQ too. Highly recommend for a nice remote stay. Bring some pool floaties with you too.

Photos don't even do it justice!!!
Unlike real estate photography where the property usually looks more amazing than it actually is, this stunning studio apartment was as divine if not better than what is demonstrated through the photos. We felt as though we could reach out and touch the pool as the open space cascades out with those windows so sparkling clean we initially didn't realise there were glass windows there! Give me the number of your window cleaner, they are welcome at my house any day ;) Owners were so accommodating & helpful and accommodating our baby boy made it a super special end to our honeymoon because I never could have left home without him! Even though we apparently chose the coldest week of the Whitsundays winter & therefore found the pool too cold for swimming, the 3 of us loved every minute of the toasty spa as we relaxed with a quiet drink, cheese & dips watching the boats sail by. The Netflix dropped in and out a bit but to be honest we weren't there for the television so it did not phase me at all. If you're there for the Netflix you're there for the wrong reasons! Herbal teas, coffee, condiments & bath/beach towels to name a few of the welcoming supplies. If you just want to escape the daily grind and pause to watch the world pass you by, this is definitely your place. Turquoise waters, boats and sea birds aplenty. Mindfulness in the purest and most natural form, thanks so much for hosting our new little family :)

Why they chose this property

The panorama from The Point Whitsundays will spellbind you - There is really is no other place like it! Perched at the end of a quiet peninsula with views to the harbour. It has with can be considered the best view in the Whitsundays.

What makes this property unique

The Point Whitsundays maintain a very private and serene environment for our guests.
This fully self contained accommodation is the complete private lower pool deck of a two storey house.
Sometimes we, the owners are present upstairs but this has no impact on the privacy and serenity of your space.
