Perched on the edge of the Coral Sea and flanked by swaying palms, The Boathouse Apartments in Airlie Beach is where luxury and leisure meet in perfect harmony. This premium waterfront escape offers a rare blend of refined indulgence and family-friendly comfort — all with the Whitsundays as your backyard.
Offering expansive two- and three-bedroom self-contained apartments, The Boathouse Apartments is tailor-made for those who travel with style but seek the warmth and space of home. Each apartment features a private balcony with sweeping marina views, a full gourmet kitchen, and laundry facilities — ideal for longer stays or those who like to pack light. Interiors strike a sophisticated balance between coastal chic and contemporary ease, inviting guests to unwind the moment they arrive.
It’s a place where morning coffees are sipped to the sound of rustling palms, and the sea breeze follows you from balcony to poolside. Lush tropical gardens wrap around a full-sized tennis court and tranquil swimming pool complete with sun lounges and a shaded wading area. It feels like a private sanctuary — yet everything you need is just steps away.
Located on the Port of Airlie Marina, The Boathouse Apartments isn’t just one of the most stylish addresses in Airlie Beach — it’s also one of the most connected. A five-minute waterfront stroll leads to the heart of town, with buzzing cafés, boutiques, and the laid-back Airlie Beach Hotel, known for its live music and welcoming atmosphere. On Saturdays, the beachfront markets come alive with local makers, foodies, and artists.
Dining is a delight before you even leave the building. The marina promenade below The Boathouse Apartments features a handpicked mix of waterfront restaurants and bars — perfect for breakfast with a breeze, sunset drinks, or seafood dinners under the stars.
Boathaven Beach — Airlie’s only true tidal beach — is just five minutes away. Framed by palms and bathed in warm aquamarine waters, it’s perfect for morning swims or afternoons lazing on the sand. The ease of walking to and from the apartment means less planning and more spontaneous moments.
Another standout advantage is proximity to the Cruise Whitsundays terminal. Guests can walk from their apartment to board day trips to Whitehaven Beach, Hamilton Island or the Great Barrier Reef — no shuttles or parking stress required. The Whitsundays are truly at your doorstep.
And while the region is known for adventure, The Boathouse Apartments is all about relaxed sophistication. It’s where families reconnect, couples toast to milestones, and friends reunite after reef days. Here, luxury isn’t loud — it’s present in the details: polished timber finishes, calm coastal styling, and the serenity of a marina outlook.
