Expect to be kept up late by revellers from the attached Magnums Bar, which is either a boon or a bane, depending on your morning routine or reason for staying in Airlie. Either way, this place, with average dorms and basic doubles in a tropical garden, is the place to meet other travellers and cut loose for a few days.
Forget the tent sites close to the bar – you won’t sleep unless you’re comatose. Every tour imaginable can be arranged.
