Airlie Beach YHA has a very convenient location -- five-minute walk from the Greyhound bus stop and five minutes from the Main Street, shops, and restaurants. It is also fifteen-minute walk from Abel Point (the Marina) where the majority of the boats depart to the Whitsunday Islands Group.
The hostel has two buildings -- one with the reception and the twin/double rooms and the second one with the dorms and communal areas, including kitchen, living room/dining room, and laundry. Internet access is available as well. Outside there is a swimming pool and a big terrace.
Each room has a balcony and a unit bathroom. This hostel is quite big and not very charming, but it is very clean. The big kitchen is well equipped, with plenty of space in the fridge and storage shelves. All the common areas are closed after 10 p.m. The hostel is very quiet and all rooms have double-glazed windows.
If you go on a cruise, you have to pay for luggage storage, although there is no security at all and everybody can get the key and access the storage room. However the reception can keep your valuables in their safe. There are some lockers available across the street but they are very expensive as they are on a twenty-four-hour basis.
