Mango House Resort

The reception/ front desk was closed for most of our stay. This made our time at mango house difficult when trying to get bedding, book taxis, find a place to leave luggage. No details for internet access in the room. The supermarket over the road didn’t have any fresh produce. The swimming pool was too dirty to swim in. But the Cockatoos visiting on the balcony were amazing. Great TV.

Great location. Easy access. Neat space with all essential amenities.

We absolutely loved staying at Mango House. It’s only a 5 minute bus ride to Airlie Beach centre and has a supermarket, cafe and post office just across the street from it. The room was amazing - as backpackers we were very excited to see a washer and a dryer to use for free! The pool and garden are lovely too. 10/10 would recommend. Pam, the owner, was an gem and even dropped us at the bus stop to catch our greyhound bus.

Property Manager is friendly and helpful. We stayed only one night and all went very well for us. We will stay again here.

I think Mango House would have been good ten years ago. The rooms need upgrading as does the pool. The rooms are spacious enough (we had a one bedroom apartment). There was three of us, husband, wife and teenage daughter. We booked a one bedroom apartment with queen bed and double sofa bed. There was no sofa bed. It was a built in sofa that could apparently be slept in. Like two small single size I guess? Definitely not what you would expect when booking a double sofa bed…something that pulls out to make a double bed. There were dirty dishes in the dishwasher. On check in it was mentioned that a cleaner had quit that morning so probably done in a hurry. The good…separate toilet to bathroom (although not sure why exhaust fan was in toilet and not bathroom) and washer/dryer. Kitchen had everything you need. And good quality toilet paper! We bring our own but didn’t have to use it! 😂 Both times we went to the office (to get pool towels and check out) we were going to ask about sofa bed but both times the lady was on speaker phone to family it seemed and didn’t seem to want to hang up and serve customers. We were a bit disappointed but we booked late and this was what was available and it was good value compared to other places. With some improvements it could be a lovely place.
