Shingley Beach Resort - Whitsundays

A landmark in refined contemporary opulence, Shingley Beach Resort commands attention along the picturesque shoreline of Airlie Beach, serving as the gateway to the exquisite Great Barrier Reef. From the moment you step into the lobby, you're greeted by a visual feast: sun-drenched spaces with sweeping views and artistic installations that reflect the vibrant local culture. Large windows frame the stunning Coral Sea, inviting in the warm tropical breeze. Signature features include the Underwater Observation Chamber and semi-submersible glass-bottom boat that promise unparalleled encounters with diverse marine life. The resort's design marries Mediterranean elements with modern conveniences, ensuring comfort and style at every turn, while the two inviting swimming pools beckon you to relax and unwind. A vibrant beachside picnic area with BBQ facilities is a favourite among both guests and locals, making it the perfect backdrop for both peaceful afternoons and social gatherings.

Explore the Local Area

Airlie Beach is not just a destination; it's a launchpad to adventure. Located a mere 10 km from the Hayman Island Resort Seaplane Base, the resort offers convenient access to the 74 beautiful islands of the Whitsundays. Visitors can wander the pristine 7-kilometer stretch of Whitehaven Beach, notorious for its powdery silica sand and crystal-clear waters, or embark on an Ocean Rafting tour to explore uninhabited islands away from the crowds. Nearby attractions include the Airlie Beach Lagoon, a peaceful spot just 1 km away, and the picturesque Bicentennial Walkway, which offers scenic trails through lush landscapes. With transport links making the nearby Hamilton Island accessible in under 30 minutes, you're perfectly poised to dip into local life or indulge in the region's adventure offerings.

“For those who like a little distance from the action, this Whitsundays resort offers self-contained apartments near the Coral Sea Marina.

With multiple pools and onsite dining, it seems ideal for families seeking both relaxation and adventure.”
