My boyfriend and I had a fantastic time at the Whitsundays apartments! The incredible sea view from our spacious room made our stay memorable. While we didn't utilize the pool areas much due to the crowds, we enjoyed the beach nearby. The shuttle service to and from the airport was super convenient. However, it would have been nice to have more dining options on-site.

I had a wonderful stay at the Whitsunday Apartments. The views from the balcony were absolutely stunning, and the price for our seaview apartment was a fantastic deal. However, the living area furniture could use some comfort improvements, and I found the shower design a bit problematic with water splashing everywhere. Despite these drawbacks, I would definitely return for the location and amenities.

Staying at this resort was a treat, with a fantastic view over Catseye Beach and spacious apartments. The shuttle service made getting around the island easy, and the facilities were mostly great. However, my experience with service at the reception was less than ideal, which detracted from an otherwise perfect stay.

I had a delightful stay at the Whitsunday Apartments despite a few hiccups. The apartment was clean, spacious, and had stunning views that made the experience worth it. However, my interactions with some of the staff left something to be desired, and I felt there was some miscommunication regarding check-in and service procedures. Overall, a lovely stay, but some improvements in guest experience would elevate it further.

The island itself is stunning, but I found the prices to be quite outrageous compared to what I expected. While the view from my apartment was incredible and the cleanliness was top-notch, dining options felt excessively regulated and overpriced. The room was spacious and inviting; however, amenities like coffee should be complimentary considering the high dining costs. Overall, my experience was mixed with some high points but significant drawbacks, especially regarding value for money.

My one-bedroom apartment was spacious, very clean, and offered a breathtaking view of the beach and garden. Even though it could comfortably fit four, I was disappointed that it didn't come with some basic amenities like a washing machine.
Service

While there were some redeeming qualities, I faced challenges with the dining service. For instance, I was charged extra for a coffee that I felt should have been complimentary, given the buffet breakfast price, which left me frustrated.

Dining on the island was a major letdown; prices felt excessively high for the quality offered, and the experience lacked the variety I hoped for, particularly at the breakfast buffet.

The facilities were generally well-maintained, especially the pool area, which was relaxing and beautifully set up with plenty of shade options.
