Freedom Shores Location & Address

How to go to Freedom Shores from Airport

Getting to Freedom Shores from the airport is a breeze, with several convenient options available. Whether you're looking for the fastest route or the most budget-friendly one, here's a breakdown of your choices for a smooth hotel transfer.
  • Taxi or Ride Hailing (Most Direct):

    A taxi or ride-hailing service offers the most direct route from Whitsunday Coast Airport (PPP) to Freedom Shores. The journey typically takes around 30-40 minutes, depending on traffic.
  • Airport Shuttle (Convenient):

    Several airport shuttle services operate from Whitsunday Coast Airport to Airlie Beach, where you can then take a taxi or ride-hailing service to Freedom Shores. This option is often more affordable than a direct taxi.
  • Rental Car (Freedom to Explore):

    If you plan to explore the Whitsundays extensively, renting a car at the airport might be a good option. Freedom Shores offers parking facilities for guests.
  • Public Bus (Most Affordable):

    While not the most direct, taking a public bus from the airport to Airlie Beach and then transferring to another bus or taxi towards Shute Harbour (where Freedom Shores is located) is the most affordable option. Be prepared for a longer travel time.

Tips:

For the most convenient route, consider pre-booking an airport shuttle or ride-hailing service. If you're on a budget, the public bus is a viable option, but factor in extra travel time. Renting a car provides the most flexibility for exploring the region at your own pace.

I was advised that there is a complimentary shuttle bus and can be adjust if any of us need the bus earlier than 11am but didn’t mention that there is a strict 11am starting route . That’s why I booked with Freedom Shores even they are quite far from the center (15-20 mins driving )but if I had to choose again the distance will put me off rebooking with them. Otherwise all the rest was excellent.

You cant get a better slice of paradise than Freedom Shores. We love this place for its tranquil surroundings yet so close to Northerlies for a relaxing drink, eat and vibe.

This was the worst property and I didn’t even stay there. It’s very far from anything so we had dinner and what was supposed to be complimentary drinks (I’m ann Expedia gold member) and then we left to a place more central. I was shocked that I was charged for the drinks! After several rude messages from the hotel I’ll have to pursue the reimbursement from my credit card. I didn’t sign for the drinks so I’m pretty sure they can’t do that. Also there’s a pond that you have to pass to check in and there was a snake inside. No thanks! I am happy with my decision to not stay there but very disappointed in the rudeness. I wasn’t expecting that.
