Resort Overview

Positioned on the absolute waterfront and just a short stroll to the enchanting Airlie Beach, lies the Coral Sea Resort. The resort forms part of the award-winning Coral Sea Resort, with its relaxed atmosphere, collection of adventure tourism operators and eclectic cafes and restaurants.

A short stroll along a waterfront boardwalk is the Coral Sea Marina which is home to not only stunning superyachts but also a range of quality tours providing access to the Whitsunday Islands and Great Barrier Reef.

The former Coral Sea Resort came under new ownership in July 2019 with the hotel merging with the adjacent Abell Point Marina – the merged entity then rebranded as Coral Sea Resort. Resort refurbishments have now been completed with the vision to enhance guest stay as well as leverage the resort’s unique absolute waterfront location.

Coral Sea Resort features a variety of rooms including deluxe suites and apartments. Many of these rooms are blessed with stunning ocean views. All accommodation includes a complimentary continental breakfast. Hot a la carte options and barista coffee available at an additional charge. There is an enticing array of facilities on offer throughout the resort. A contemporary restaurant and bar, 25m swimming pool, private jetty, beach, private cabanas, a spa, a variety of function and event spaces, and on-site undercover parking.

Coral Sea Resort is a popular destination for weddings, corporate functions, and other events. If you have any queries regarding any events held at the resort during your stay, please don’t hesitate to contact us.

In addition, throughout the Coral Sea Resort there are multiple dining options, fitness facilities, outdoor leisure space, and over 50 tourism operators providing a range of day and overnight tours throughout the Whitsundays and Great Barrier Reef.
