We had a fantastic stay at the Reef View Hotel! The room was incredibly comfortable and surprisingly spacious. Even though we chose a garden view room, the view was still impressive. The location was perfect, with just a short walk to the main village, making it very convenient. Overall, a great experience - we would definitely stay here again!

The hotel location was just perfect. I booked the twin room based on the photos. Sadly on arriving to the room even thou it was spacious the bathroom was old and dated and dirty and looked nothing like the updated photos on the booking. The grout and shower screen needed a good scrub. The room had a musky carpet smell. What surprised me even more was that Hamilton Island accommodation was offering 25% off room rate for our dates. It was such a disappointment as we were celebrating a special birthday and the additional money could have been spent on day trips, dining or other activities. I have been booking with hotels.com for a number of years and they have always been competitive. Sadly not on this occasion.

Overall very good hotel for family holiday. I found most of staffs were young & had accents. I assume they are on their working holidays. Most of them were nice but some were a bit rude. I guess they dont have much experience in customer service & don't care much as they are there for short term only

Another good trip on Hamilton Island. Happy to come back each year. This year we didn’t get the renovated rooms at the Reef View so they felt dated, but still clean and comfortable.

My wife and I went here for our 10 year anniversary. We informed them through Expedia that it was our anniversary but never received any response online or in person. Initial room was disappointing but we were changed to a better room pretty quickly which was nice. Pleasant stay overall although it would have been decent to get a free late checkout rather than have to pay $50. We got one free drink when checking out as staff felt bad about the lack of communication.

The resort was absolutely perfect! We could not have asked for anything better. The Coral Sea rooms have a spectacular view. The room was very spacious and the beds were very comfortable. The grounds were very tropical and the pool areas were beautiful. All staff were friendly and helpful. A perfect holiday destination.

Property in great location for beach and walking tracks in hills behind.
The que at breakfast was quite long but not a big issue. Possibly need a few more coffee machines as one wasn't working and the other was a little temperamental
Otherwise, a wonderful relacing holiday on Hamilton Island

We were placed above the bar and the music shook our room. We asked what time the music ended and no one really seemed to know, so we asked to be moved. We were moved to a run down room (ie, sinks loose) that had not been cleaned well. The beds in the new room were worse than hostel beds. The staff was nice, except that when we told them we had an early morning, they should not have put us immediately above the bar. I would not stay at the Reef View Hotel again and would not recommend it to friends.

Great views and comfortable bed. Could do with a freshen up, but great views distract from the imperfections!

Reef View Hotel Hamilton Island.
We stayed here for one night in a coral view suite as a stopgap on a trip to the reef.
Most important conclusion is : if you travel with children it is the perfect hotel. As a couple….stay at Qualia 👍
The suite was very nice, spacious and with a great view from the 19th floor. The hotel has one pool and there are two other pools within 3 min walk. Beach is right in front and they have free kayaks, sailing catamarans , boards and snorkeling gear. One restaurant in the hotel and two others within 4 min walk.
The only drawback for us (traveling as a couple) was that the place was literally full with families. (School holiday too). At dinner (8pm) there was only one other table without children and at breakfast (7am) we were the only one. That resulted in dirty tables, food on the floor, parent allowing small children to pick up food with their hands at the buffet, shouting, crying, jumping in the clearly marked “no jumping pool”….etc.
The staff was great, trying to do what they could but they were just overwhelmed.
So….to reiterate. Perfect hotel for families. As a couple , or single travelers you cannot beat Qualia.

Amazing views from the balcony, rooms are quite huge incl the bathroom. Staff is super friendly. 15 min walk to Marina with IGA, a cafe and restaurants. Instead of rental cars, golf buggies are used.
I can highly recommend Hamilton Island and the Reef View Hotel

We had an amazing time. the view with the hotel was just amazing. the shuttle buses make it so easy. loved all the water sports that were included in our bookings. we will definitely return to Hamilton Island. relaxing holiday.
The only thing about the accommodation that I would mention is about the bathrooms that would benefit from an upgrade. while the rest of the hotel (room, reception, cafe) all look new the bathrooms were quite old.
overall an amazing trip!!!

Beautiful location. Some parts of the hotel are dated and a little tired but didn’t affect our holiday. All the staff seamed lovely. Loved the live acoustic in the bar
3.0 / 5.0
Sadly the property is a little run down and is in need up a reno.
The food options are limited on the island and you need to book before you even leave to go on holiday to get a table.
5.0 / 5.0
Good spot for your first time exploring the island and family friendly. Most things are within walking distance and ocean view room is a must.
