We had a beautiful stay. We used all the amenities, the pool, bbq & kitchen. There were 7 of us we fit comfortably with plenty of room to spread out. The outdoor areas are perfect for family get togethers
A tropical paradise with all you need for a Nth QLD holiday stay!

Great house , great location
Second time here (last 2013) is a wonderful relaxing house with all the features you could ever need.
Comfortably fits 8 people without living on top of each other - and the pool provides a welcome respite from the heat (and the tropical rain). The activities close by keep even the most active busy.

Hi Anthony
Thank you for taking the time to write a review for 12 Cowrie St. We are pleased you enjoyed the house and facilities of this wonderful beachside home.
We do hope we may be able to welcome you back again, next time you are travelling our way.
We really enjoyed our stay. We are a family of 7 and we fit in comfortably. The king that converted to 2 single beds helped. There was a fold-out sofa bed but we didn't need that. The house presented as in the photos, and the best two thing were the beach facing lounge area and pool bathed in sunlight most of the day, and the fact that you are right on the beach. The house is not walking distance to Port Douglas main street, but if you have a car (recommend) then it makes no difference and I would rather be right on the beach and further from town than not on the beach and closer to town. Loved the stay and would go back.

We are so pleased you enjoyed your beachside stay at 12 Cowrie St, Chris.
Would love to welcome you back, next time you are travelling our way.
Great home and facilities. Very relaxing with everything you need at this lovely home, easy drive or walk along the beach to town with lots of restaurants and shopping available. Very quiet location. Will certainly return for another stay.
Had an awesome stay for a girls getaway. Pool and surroundings felt like a tropical paradise which it was. Had a fantastic time and house was amazing - would stay there again.

Great size pool
The location of the house was great, and the pool size was fantastic. House and pool overall though need a good clean and repair. Upstairs toilet door provides no privacy as the slats are broken, the downstairs lounge has slats broken to the door also. The upstairs door to the balcony is terrible to open and close and the window slats dont shut properly as they are also broken. The pool had missing tiles which sliced open my childrens feet. For the price we paid, and how it was advertised, overall I expected a much better quality home that wasnt so old and requiring so much maintenance.
We thoroughly enjoyed our 17 nights at 12 Cowrie St Beachhouse. Fantastic heated pool, beautifully designed Beachhouse. Very well equipped kitchen. I enjoyed the BBQ area cooking and eating outside by the pool was very nice. Kids found some board games and books. Beds were comfortable also. We would definitely stay again and recommend to any family to book this house.
