The outside of the hotel looks drab BUT the inside is beautiful (of course doesn't compare to the stunning whitsunday scenery!). I'm so glad my friend and I chose to stay here for our mini break! We stayed on the top floor and our room was immaculate. Spacious and clean, with an amazing view! We had 2 queen beds, mini... more

Stayed 4 nights in garden view room (2nd floor). The room was really great - very generously sized and the staff were good. Being on the second floor you were near the air conditioner vents and it was a little noisy when you were heading to your room but it wasn't really noticeable when you were in the room. You... more

Hamilton Island is a controversial place and the Reef View by all accounts should not actually be there - a high rise hotel on a magnificent island that some say it despoils. But forget all that because when you are inside looking out the view of Catseye Beach is superb. The Reef View had a makeover not long ago and... more

My wife & I spent 3 nights in the Reef View to attend a friends wedding on the island. The hotel stands high above the beach and provides amazing views from the 3rd floor up. The hotel has everything you need and i cant recommend this hotel enough. But beware of one thing... this island will hurt your pocket. Beers,... more

My husband, 2 year old child and I stayed in a Garden View Room for 5 nights. Due to the hotel being heavily booked, we were accomodated on the 2nd floor, which was quite noisy at night being near the hotel's bar. Would've been nicer to say on a higher floor. Hotel staff were excellent, friendly and very efficient, really... more

Great view!

I stayed at the Reef View for 3 nights with a friend and had a Coral View room on the 8th floor which was fabulous. We met some people in the lift who were staying on the 19th floor - they invited us up to see the view from their room - WOW, it was a 2 bed duplex with... more

My husband and I only stayed at The Reef Hotel one night but I could recommend it for a stay on Hamilton Island. We got the last room open so the view was terrible (overlooked the rooftop of the pool restaurant), but the room was very large, the bed super comfy and the bathroom very nice. The staff gets an... more

We stayed at the Reef View for 4 nites in Sep as part of our 2.5 wk trip to Australia. At £180 a nite we were expecting something quite special, and we certainly weren't disappointed! The room was huge, as was the bathroom with a separate shower & bath and 2 sinks. And the balcony overlooking the beach was beyond... more

If you are used to 4-5 star accommodation you may be disappointed with the Reef View. However, I can assure you that the views are definitely five star! Every room of the hotel has magnificant views of the Coral Sea. The hotel does have it's issues. Beware of booking a junior/interconnecting room as all these rooms are situated next to... more
