We found Waters Edge Resort met all our expectations. The rooms were roomy, clean and well appointed and the view from our apartment was magnificent. There are 3 pools and a separate spa which, along with the grounds are beautifully maintained. Being only a block from the main street was very convenient especially if eating out. We also dined at... More

A very nice place to stay. Large, well-appointed holiday apartment. I have also stayed at Shigley Beach Resort, where Nigel is a nice guy and thoughtful manager, but the facilities are not nearly as nice as in Waters Edge. Multiple infinity pools, with views of the Whitsunday Islands from in the pools, were great. You gotta pay for the WiFi,... More

Well I'd like to say that we stayed at this apartments but all I can say is that due to an unfortunate coincidence of the two apartments having the same name, I accidentally booked 6 nights at Water's Edge Resort in the Whitsundays instead of Cairns where I had booked our flights. On realising my mistake 9 days prior to... More

We really enjoyed our stay at Waters Edge. The resort has recently been repainted and looks great. The 3 pools are lovely and the view is amazing. It's just a short walk to the Main Street and even though the kitchen and bathroom are a little dated the room was very spacious and well decorated. We had a sun lounger... More

We found this a convenient, clean & pleasant place to spend 5 nights recently. It was handy to the shops & bars, a short walk to the beach, and there was parking available underneath. We loved sitting on the balcony watching the view, very relaxing. The choice of pools was good. The only negative comment would be that because diners... More

We stayed at Waters Edge Resort for our good friends wedding. The wedding itself was absolutely stunning, next to the pool and views of the ocean. The staff were so helpful and friendly. Our room was equally enjoyable, had stunning views and had everything we needed and more. It was also in a very handy location, close to shops, night... More

It was a good location. The pool was nice and some great pics can be taken of yourselves swimming in it. Spacious apartment. Floor of the apartment wasn't very clean. Gym was basic. Very steep slope to get to the place. Overpriced for what it is.

We had a three bedroom apt on the top floor with spacious balcony. The living room is large combined with dinning room, while the bedroom is relatively small.
