Fodor's Expert Review Whitsunday Moorings B&B

37 Airlie Crescent, Airlie Beach, Queensland, 4802, Australia Fodor's Choice

Overlooking Abel Point Marina, this meticulously run B&B has everything you need: stupendous marina views, charming hosts, and terrific gourmet breakfasts, often accompanied by colorful chirping parrots. The three open-plan suites are tastefully outfitted with terra-cotta-tile floors, en suite bathrooms, cedar blinds, and ceiling fans. The larger East and West suites also include lounges and well-equipped kitchens. All have panoramic views from their patios. The house is surrounded by mango and frangipani trees filled with frolicking lorikeets. Although the host is helpful with regard to local activities, her poolside hammock can sidetrack even energetic guests.
