Whitsunday Terraces Resort

A celebrated retreat, Whitsunday Terraces Resort stands majestically on 5 Golden Orchid Drive in Airlie Beach, Queensland, offering panoramic views of the vibrant Coral Sea and the breathtaking Whitsunday Islands. Upon arrival, guests are greeted by a lobby adorned with tropical motifs and elegantly designed spaces that evoke relaxation. The moment you step into the airy, sun-drenched lobby, a visual feast of color and light draws you in, hinting at the beauty that lies beyond - a view of glistening waters and lush landscapes. The resort's design embodies a perfect balance of modern comfort and coastal charm, where every detail contributes to an inviting atmosphere. Guests are welcomed into spacious self-contained holiday apartments, featuring stunning balconies, fully equipped kitchenettes, and chic living areas. Unique experiences elevate any stay: savor a boutique beer on tap by the pool, indulge in local culinary delights, or simply unwind while watching yachts glide across the sea from your private terrace.

Explore the Local Area

Set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Great Barrier Reef, Whitsunday Terraces Resort offers a gateway to both the reef and the famous Whitsunday Islands. Within a mere two-minute stroll, vibrant Airlie Beach beckons with its eclectic mix of shops, cafes, and dining options. Nature lovers can explore Conway National Park-the verdant trails just 0.5 km away offer opportunities for adventure, while the man-made Airlie Beach Lagoon, perfect for families, is just a stone's throw from your suite. Don't miss the Whitsunday Saturday Markets for local crafts and treats, and for water activities, the Port of Airlie is a short drive, where sea cruises depart regularly to explore this UNESCO World Heritage site. Proserpine Airport is conveniently located about 30 minutes away, ensuring seamless travel access to this stunning coastal escape.

Room Information

Whitsunday Terraces Resort boasts 45 individually furnished accommodations designed with the perfect seaside break in mind; each apartment provides an inviting sense of space, with abundant natural light flooding the rooms. The self-contained holiday apartments vary in size and layout, ranging from studio-like spaces to expansive two-bedroom suites, all equipped with modern amenities such as air conditioning, wireless internet access, and comfortable sitting areas. Every suite features a private balcony offering stunning ocean views, alongside fully equipped kitchenettes that enhance the holiday experience.

Room Upgrades

The resort offers a variety of upgraded room types to accommodate varying traveler needs. One-bedroom apartments, approximately 603 sq ft, are suitable for a maximum of three guests; larger two-bedroom interconnecting suites, approximately 1,044 sq ft, can accommodate up to five guests, complete with spacious living areas and kitchenettes. Each upgraded suite comes with ensuite bathrooms, expansive living spaces, and breathtaking views from the terrace, making it ideal for families or groups seeking a splendid escape into the heart of the Whitsundays.

“The apartments, each equipped with a private balcony to better enjoy the ocean views, provide an affordable base from which to explore the Whitsunday Islands. Two outdoor swimming pools and a hot tub are set amongst tropical gardens, while still being only two minutes from the town center; I think it is a practical choice for families or groups looking for self-contained accommodation. Conference and meeting facilities are also available.”
