Family-friendly vacation rentals in Bowen

We had an awesome stay here and would recommend to anyone wanting a spot in Airlie within walking distance from anything 😎

We absolutely loved Arthur & Rita’s place with incredible views of the turquoise Whitsundays water. Catseye Beach was a stone’s throw away being a 2-minute walk, and having the golf buggy included as part of our stay allowed us to access the island and get most places in under 5-minutes. The place was neat, clean, and tidy and it had everything we needed. The bed was comfortable, and the rooms very large with lots of wardrobe space. Arthur & Rita were fabulous hosts, providing restaurant and cruise recommendations, and were extremely responsive whenever we had a question. I would highly recommend staying here and we cannot wait to come back to beautiful Hamilton Island. It’s been one of our best holidays so far!

A truly exceptional rental property with incredible views of the water. Spacious, luxurious, and well-located, this is an idyllic place to spend a few days on Hamilton Island! They have a concierge that picks you up from the airport and they provide a golf cart for your use during your stay. Very awesome experience all around!

Really great property! Looks exactly like the pics! Great location, very clean and modern, and the communication was excellent! Would definitely stay here again!

Great location, quick walk down the hill to the main street, lagoon and Port of Airlie. Very nice unit, with an amazing view out over the bay. Handy to have a pool downstairs also.

beautiful appartment, really spacious and equipped with everything we needed. I was really surprised at how large the living area was actually. And the balcony (and views) were amazing. Only draw back is the walk up the hill to get to it, which even as 2 fairly fit 30 year olds we found to be challenging in the head, especially with suitcases. But saying that, the view makes it worth it. Would definitely stay again.

Beautiful spot and so comfortable, host was great and we had a wonderful time!

The view was breathtaking. There was not a bad day in the 6 days we were there. The heat tried to filter its way through, but the cool breezes too over. The home was very private with the front deck having plants covering it. The view encompasses the master and bedroom number 2, the long and the dining room and kitchen all had this awesome view. Rod and Robyn provided a telescope in the dining room which allowed us to check out the islands and boats in our view. This is a great family holiday home and I recommend this to anyone who needs a great break. Thanks Rod and Robyn.

Absolutely beautiful and so elegant, would definitely come back to stay and highly recommend.

We ended up needing last minute accommodation and Peter was very accommodating and welcoming. We so appreciate him hosting us on short notice. The place was lovely and had everything we needed to spend a few days in the Airlie Beach area. Highly recommend!

Our holiday in Dingo Beach was amazing. This property was conveniently located to the local pub and swimming enclosure. And with just a short walk to the beach. Our dog came with and she was very accomodating. The beds are comfortable and the house equipped everything we needed. We will certainly be visiting again.

We had a fantastic Christmas stay at Hideaway Bay. Shirley was an excellent host—responsive, helpful with recommendations, and attentive making sure we were ok during a period of heavy storms. The views here are breathtaking, even better than the listing photos suggest. There are plenty of great local restaurants, and Dingo Beach was a highlight. We also had fun joining the locals for barefoot bowls at the Hideaway Bowls Club. The location is quite remote so it’s worth planning ahead for food and drinks. One small downside is that the BBQ shown in the pictures has been replaced with a large gas-fired hot plate. However, the house itself was very comfortable, with three spacious bedrooms, plenty of linens, and a well-equipped kitchen. The beach, just a five-minute walk downhill, was full of marine life, we spotted stingrays, turtles, and even some baby sharks in the rock pools. Back at the house we were even greeted by a few Wallabies Overall a fantastic stay from start to end

Just had my birthday weekend away at this beautiful home and beautiful location. Jan was very accommodating to our needs as we didn’t have the best weather and spent most of our time at the house. Was a great stay and would definitely recommend to others as it is an easy walk to Main St and had spectacular views as shown in the photos.

Beautiful place to stay! Thank you again 😊

This place was fabulous! Everything was perfect! It had everything we needed. The place is very spacious and clean. The host arranged pick up and drop off which was extremely helpful. The buggy provided was perfect. We did not want to leave this place! The balcony and view were amazing! The host responds quickly and communicated very well. I can’t wait to stay here again. Thank you so much for the hospitality!

Lovely, spacious place with a great view. Was clean and tidy with amenities provided. The host was friendly and quick to respond with any queries we had.

Shane and Helen were so helpful throughout our stay. Gave us plenty of advice on places to eat, parking, getting around, places to visit and tours to go on. The private pool was amazing for early morning swims and with an amazing view to match. Everything is close and town is within walkable distance. Would highly recommend staying here.

Great location close to the Main Street, it is up a steep hill though. Good layout for family of 5

A great location, so close to Airlie. Pool is great for cooling down after a day full of activities.

Phenomenal stay. Location and quality of accommodation was excellent. Very well stocked. Communication and check in was very smooth thanks to Katie. Pickup and drop off to the airport. All in all 5* in every department

The accommodation is located around the beautiful beach, everything is as featured on Airbnb. I'm doing rural placement for 6 weeks and I stayed in this property with my partner from London for 2 weeks. We made great memories here. After a week, new towels and cleaning service were provided, which was very satisfactory. I was also satisfied with the smooth communication with the office.
