We truly enjoyed our 4 night stay here. Room is a great size, bed is huge and the view is really nice. The staff went above and beyond our expectations, we had an issue with laundry and the manager fixed it very fast. They also had a plumber come through for some routine maintenance and the staff offered to buy... More

Great location, fantastic staff and owner! Really happy with everything they offered including the restaurant, we had the indian style dishes which were 8/10 for us fussy sydney diners. Everything worked in our room, everything was supplied that we needed and the pool was nice and clean and just plain relaxing. We are so glad to see the other great... More

This place is a great escape. With New Owners (who are also the new managers from December 2011) - you sense a warmth and refreshing energy with this place (I have been here a few times over the years). The Restaurant has a great menu now and the food is fresh & well cooked. Breakfast was again fresh and well... More

Free wifi and continental breakfast is a plus! My husband had a medical emergency and we had to stay for another two weeks while... More

We stayed in the family room and were very pleased with our surroundings. The rooms seem to have been freshly painted and had new carpet. I understand they are under new management with more refurbs... More

My daughter, mother and myself stayed at the Colonial Palms last week for one night. The motel is not new but well maintained. The staff are very friendly and helpful. We stayed in room 16 which is upstairs and overlooks Shute Harbour Road and the large pool. It is above the restaurant and bar area. There is a large room... More

The staff are great, nothing is too much hassle. Rooms well appointed. Clean, quiet, perfect after a long day on the road. More

The Colonial Palms is an older style motel set on the edge of a hill just to the south of Airlie Beach. Through the palms you can get a glimpse of some water views. In the centre of the establishment is a lovely little pool with waterfall. There is a restaurant and bar but we did not eat there. The... More
