Reefo's is a huge resort. It's very nice looking and it has everything you need. Reception is open 24 hours, offering booking service for sailing tours, and they will help you with every issue you have. Next to reception there is the Reefo's Bar and Restaurant with a real wood decor. It's a great place for fun in the evening and night. The variety of drinks you can order and the events they organize are really outstanding. They also have a huge screen for TV sports.
Accommodations are in many small houses spread over the area. Thus it can be a walk of 7 minutes between reception and your bed, but it's a great atmosphere. Dorm-huts are have a maximum of six people in each.
The resort also has a small supermarket, laundry, pool, and beach volleyball. Not far away is a shopping center and some cafes/take-aways. Because they are not located in the heart of the city, they offer a free shuttle service every half an hour to the middle of Airlie Beach. Moreover, they bring you to the Coach Terminal and Marina as well if you have to catch a bus or a boat.
The only drawbacks are that there is no breakfast included and it is not so easy to find a good place nearby if you want to have a really good morning meal. They also want you to give a $50 bond for the key (really a little much, isn't it?) in cash. But they do offer a calm, clean, and comfortable accommodation, with a stylish bar on the spot, and very well organized shuttle service.
How to get there: From the middle of Airlie Beach there is a free Shuttle Service departing from the central carpark every hour at about 5 minutes after the hour. Otherwise you find Reefo's next to the main road about 2km before Airlie Beach in the western direction. There is a big sign next to the road on an area full of palm trees. You can't miss it.
