"Listen to all of the other reviews and book now. The Point is an absolute dream. The pictures do not do it justice. The views are breathtaking. The day will fly by just by relaxing in the pool all day. We were able to schedule shuttles and taxis easily. Cathy is a wonderful host and was responsive and helpful. It is one of the most beautiful places you will ever see!" – Erin, Dec23

"The Point is truly spectacular. An amazing way to spend our 30th Wedding Anniversary. Incredible views and so serene we rarely ventured out, choosing to cook and eat outside overlooking the pool, spa and harbour. Beautifully appointed amenities and thoughtful touches make you feel welcome and comfortable. It is everything you could want in a location. Catherine and Ron were amazing hosts and extremely respectful of our privacy and just a message away if you needed anything. Everything is made in house and was delicious. Thank you both for an unforgettable dream vacation." – Kelly Nov2023

This was an amazing Airbnb experience we ever had. The property is fully furnished with everything a guest needs. Some Highlights below:
1. A jacuzzi just next to the swimming pool. I spent much time reading and taking a rest in it.
2. A swimming pool is a plus if you dont go to the ocean and believe me this experience is great. I booked many hotels with this amenities but none with such a great view just in your face.
3. Different kinds of birds visits from time to time and it is great time seeing them.
4. What needless to say is the stunning ocean, mountain plus island view.
5. The house itself has everything you need. You just need to get some food from the grocery and you'll have a great dinner.
6. The property is 10 mins from Airlie Beach by taxi (cost 33 dollars single trip so it is okay). If you want to take a bus, just 20-30 mins walk to the closest station and you can have it. I dont drive but this is okay for me.
Thanks for providing such good experience! – Chris Oct2023

"The Point was so spectacular - we didn’t want to leave. The pool and jacuzzi were perfect for the few days we spent here and we loved watching the tides roll in and out of Shute Harbour. Thanks for hosting your beautiful place!" – Craig Sep2023

"This place is outstanding! The photos don’t fully capture just how peaceful and beautiful it is - especially with its stunning harbor view both inside and out! The unit is well designed for a couple. Nice bathroom and kitchen. Very comfortable bed and furniture. The pool, hot tub, and deck are right outside. Location is a perfect home base for the Whitsundays. It’s a short drive to Shute Harbour’s itours and ferries and close to Airlie Beach. There’s a trail around the corner that’s a beautiful hike to a coral beach. To cap it off, Ron and Cathy were amazing hosts who made our birthday celebration special. Highly recommend!" – William Aug2023

"The best possible view to wake up to every morning, and the stars were stunning to go off to sleep to. Peaceful. Bliss. The interior actually exceeded my expectations and all Catherine’s little touches around the place did not go unnoticed. We felt so comfortable and content every day, and the jacuzzi was just a bonus. A short drive into Airlie Beach, and we always looked forward to coming home at the end of our days adventuring. Would highly recommend for anyone wanting a relaxing and wholesome holiday." – Laura Aug2023

"The Point is such a treasure, and we are so fortunate that Cathy and Ron share it. Our week long stay was exactly what we hoped for; relaxing, comfortable, completely chilled and just so beautiful. The view across the bay is breathtaking. Cathy’s thoughtfully curated recommendations were on point and we happily worked our way through them. At all times she or Ron replied to queries quickly and positively. We would have no hesitation recommending The Point to other guests and look forward to another visit some time soon". – Kate Aug2023

"The Point has the best location in Shute Harbour for views. 180degree views of the bay and islands. We went for lots of beautiful hikes but honestly I could sit there all day and look at the view from the deck by the pool. Even from inside the view is awesome. Sit for long enough and you will see Turtles and many other sea creatures and birds. A telescope is thoughtfully provided so you can zoom into any action on the water. I would recommend having a car during your stay unless you want to stay in most of the time. There is little shopping in Shute Harbour at present but Airlie Beach has plenty about 15 - 20 minutes drive away. What you loose in local amenities you gain in peace and quiet . Great walks available from the house." – Brian Jul2023

"The place was immaculate and beautifully presented. Catherine was responsive in all communications and very flexible with check in/checkout times. The views were just stunning and my only regret was that we didn't have longer to stay. The house was stocked with everything we needed and it is obvious much thought has been put in to making the guest experience easy, relaxing and perfect. We would certainly book this accommodation again without a moments hesitation. Thank you for an amazing experience." – Sally May2023

"I’d seen The Point Whitsundays a year ago on Airbnb and it left a memory trace. The space and surrounds were all I could want and need. It was magnificent and I could feel the stress dissolve. We all need different things from our holiday-what I needed was to pretend for a few days that I lived there and soak in the view the pool the jacuzzi and the abundant plants and wildlife. If that’s what you need I also recommend a massage by Manyia and the sealink Whitehaven beach-that was enough -well a few more days perhaps-but beyond that it was perfect." – Tiffany May2023
