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.

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.
