For what we paid per night, Shingley Beach Resort provided an acceptable standard of accommodation. We enjoyed the peace and quiet of the area at night and the views of... read more the marina from our balcony were lovely. Only minor issue we had was the parking, the garage we were assigned was too difficult to get into with our wagon so we had to use the visitor parks, which a lot of others did also, at times we were unable to park up top near our room. Small cars would have no issues. Aside from that we had no problems, two pools to choose from, an amazing cafe downstairs with delicious coffee and homemade croissants and a handy kitchenette with washing machine and dryer in our room. I had read reviews mentioning the stairs and its true, we did encounter many during our stay but it probably did us some good. More

We stayed at Shingley Beach in September. Our apartment overlooked the marina which provided a perfect vista for relaxing. Shingley Beach is situated away from the Hub Bub of Airlie... read more life but is only a short walk along the oceanside boardwalk to the restaurants and bars. Perfect

We stayed in room 16 which is a 1 brm pool view room.
You can’t actually see the pool due to the walkway but it’s right next to it and... read more we loved the location. You can look out through the frees to the marina.
The resort is a bit Spanish mission style - probably a bit outdated with its 90’s style terracotta rules and timber laminate cabinetry but it still looks good and is well maintained.
We had come from a 5n stay at Marina Shores and although Shingley Beach Resort doesn’t feel as modern I liked it more.
The rooms are well kept and clean, at check in our shower screen was broken and they were going to put us in a different room but I wanted to be near the pool so they replaced the screen with a curtain (temporarily) which I did not mind at all.
The bedroom is separated from the living room by double louvered doors which do nothing to block any noise from the open plan lounge/kitchen which is a bit annoying as I wanted to go to sleep whilst hubby wanted to watch TV (there is no win win here)
The kitchen had a mini fridge, an electric 2 burner cooktop and a microwave. Bathroom had a large walk in shower plus the laundry facilities (which we didn’t use).
It’s pleasant - dated but well maintained.
Downside is that the apartment is poorly ventilated and by the look of multiple signs cooking in the apartment can cause the smoke alarms to go off - signs suggest using the range hood (our apt did not have one) closing off the bedroom and ensuring windows and doors remained open - problem was our one door and window were both at the entry so we couldn’t get cross ventilation, out of fear I kept taking the fry pan outside to reduce the fumes as I cooked bacon and omelettes, out of fear of setting off the alarms - which I don’t believe would have been my fault yet the signage indicates I would have been at fault and fined accordingly.
Overall a very easy stay - we are returning late January for a further 9 nights and I hope the same service and experience awaits 🙂

We recently spent a few days in Airlie Beach staying at the "Shingley Beach Resort". Without any prior knowledge of accommodation options in Airlie we choose "Shingley Beach Resort"... read more solely based on information we found I the internet but were very happy with our choice. "Shingley Beach Resort" turned out to be a great spot if you want to be close to, but not right in the middle of, Airlie's hustle & bustle. The resort is a pleasant 30 minute walk from Airlie's main street along the water front boardwalk (maybe 40 minutes if you want to checkout the luxury yachts in marina or go to one of the restaurants at the far end of the main street). The resort itself, while maybe a little outdated, was clean and well maintained and had all amenities required for a great holiday. The staff were friendly and check in could not have been simpler. Just be aware that there are lots of stairs and steep driveways to negotiated and this could become a concern for older people or those with compromised mobility. I'm not sure if all rooms are the same but our one bedroom apartment only had a shower over the bath which was difficult to get in and out of and, again, could be a concern for older people or those with compromised mobility.
All in all this was a great spot and I would recommend it for "mature" (yes I mean older) couples and younger families so long as personal mobility (walking, stairs, steep grades, etc') is not an issue.

Thank u SBR team.

The layout of... read more our apartment (2 story 3 bed) was wonderful. We really enjoyed the views, and the location was perfect for us- away from the hustle and bustle (but a quick drive to town) and great eateries, park, boardwalk, Marina and Shingley beach at the doorstep. We have a 5 month old and a pram- so we loved this. The price is slightly over what we can generally afford, however having stayed at a number of other establishments in Airlie (we are Mackay locals), the pricing is on par. We would choose Shingley Beach Hotel over others in the same price range, 100%. More

We flew from SA and didn’t hire a car so we caught a taxi back to the resort as we had a 6 year old in tow and were tired from swimming! Only $6-$7 one way back to our two bedroom apartment.
We loved that the Resort is well managed has plenty of room and a full kitchen -we ordered online from Coles. When we didn’t want to cook The Rainbow Cafe on-site is open breakfast and lunch-I can definitely recommend eating here -everything is made from scratch! What ? Mostly unheard of these days including the baguettes with breakfast, the tomato relish and homemade beans with my eggs-yum Thank you a beautiful relaxing time and we will be back More

We recently enjoyed a wonderful long weekend stay at the Shingley Beach resort, and loved every minute!

From the moment I emailed an enquiry to checking out, the service we received from Alison and Charmaine was super friendly, accommodating and professional.
