Tides, the onsite restaurant at Club Wyndham Airlie Beach Whitsundays, will relaunch on Thursday night under new management with a fresh menu and an emphasis on locally sourced food at affordable prices.

Club Wyndham Airlie Beach was acquired by Wyndham Destinations Asia Pacific late last year and was quickly made available to the almost 60,000 owners who are part of the region’s largest timeshare club, Club Wyndham South Pacific.

The resort’s General Manager Malik Hayat said his team has been working on a new direction for Tides and is excited about unveiling it to club owners and locals at Thursday’s relaunch.

“Our refreshed focus is about catering for a broad range of tastes through high quality food and a carefully considered menu featuring cultural diversity and different dietary preferences,” said Mr Hayat.

“The restaurant’s new management will concentrate on sourcing locally where possible – particularly when it comes to seafood – and providing competitive price points, so that Tides will become a go-to venue for Airlie Beach residents.

“We are looking forward to plating up at our relaunch on Thursday and we are eagerly anticipating a full house of locals and guests keen to try our new meals for the first time.”

The restaurant’s menu features classics like nachos, Caesar salad and Greek salad alongside local seafood dishes: Whitsunday king prawns with rose marie sauce, and barramundi and chips. An Indian-style chicken curry, a specialty of the restaurant’s Chef Guatam, also promises to be a rare treat.

Sticky date pudding, vanilla bean panna cotta and homemade chocolate brownies are the options for dessert, while the restaurant also has an extensive wine and spirits list.

Bookings for Thursday night can still be made by calling 4962 5100 and diners can receive discounts of 25 per cent on food. Patrons at the relaunch will also be entertained by local performer Mick Woodbridge. Moving forward, the restaurant will be open from Tuesday to Saturday between 11am and 9pm and will cater for restaurant and poolside dining, and room service for guests.

Boasting one, two and three-bedroom apartments, Club Wyndham Airlie Beach features an open-air restaurant and bar, infinity pool and spa, gym, conference facilities and undercover parking, all within easy reach of Airlie Beach’s popular attractions.
