"We loved our stay at the Martinique Whitsunday! The pool was fabulous and never too busy. The views from our deck and apartment were stunning of Airlie Beach and the marina. The apartment was spacious and updated appliances such as a smartfridge with a water and ice dispenser we found very useful. As described the complex is up a hill but worth it for the views and it is still close to walk to everything in the main strip and to Woolworths. The bathroom had a double sink and shower with good water pressure. The expedia listing was very accurate and the pictures described the unit we received. I would highly recommend booking for your stay."

"We had a lovely stay in the queen cabin – it was nice and spacious! Being right next to the Wi-Fi area meant we could get online easily (though not all rooms have in-room access). The mattress wasn’t the best, but otherwise the room was comfortable. It was also generally quiet (although we stayed mid-week so it wasn’t very busy). The staff were lovely and friendly, and the kitchen had everything you need to make a quick lunch or dinner. There’s a Woolworths supermarket about 30 seconds walk from the kitchen too."

8/10 Good
"We had an enjoyable stay at CPMI. Highlights would be the helpful and welcoming staff, access to the two (small-ish) lagoon pools and a great breakfast. The room was quite basic, had some marks on the walls and only one easily accessible plug socket. However it was very clean on arrival and it was great to have the facilities to make tea and coffee, and access to a fridge and microwave. It is at least a 10 min walk into town, but this meant that it wasn’t too loud, which was nice. Many your experiences offer a free pick up from the hotel too, which is handy"
