Top Whitsundays Hotel Reviews

Reef View Hotel

Reef View Hotel

8/10 Good
"Nice hotel in a great location. Our King Coral room felt a little dated but the 15th floor provided excellent views across Catseye Beach, with a nice balcony to sit and watch the world below. The buffet breakfast is extensive and fantastic. Every taste is catered for with heaps of food every day. Ours was included in the room price and very much worth it. Didn't use the amenities like the gym, sauna, spa, tennis courts etc but they looked really good. Staff were very helpful and sorted any issues very quickly and efficiency Would certainly return for another stay if we ever go back"
