Amazing holiday house!
We stayed here last week with 4 couples, it has a great outlook and you have everything on your doorstep. I would highly recommend this property to anyone coming to Port Douglas and I would stay here again if I come back. Both Lilian and John were very welcoming and lovely to deal with.

Kind Regards

Travelled to Sunshine Coast for my son’s wwddimg.broight family to Port Douglas. Lucky to find the Beach House. It was perfect in every way, lots of living space and aooooo close to everything. Would stay there again when back to visit grand Babies!
A group of friends having a catch up or a family having a holiday could not find a better location or house to stay in.
With 4 bedrooms, a pool, an indoor and outdoor area for relaxing and much more, this house is a treat.
Location to the Main Street with lovely restaurants, pubs, cafes and shops is so handy. Beach only a couple of minutes walk away.
Great communication with hosts and they are very friendly and helpful.
I can definitely recommend this accommodation😊

Central location
We stayed here with some overseas friends and had a lovely time. The house is fantastically located in Port Douglas, being an easy stroll to the shops, restaurants, beach and marina. It is spacious and well laid out, with a good kitchen and very clean and comfortable rooms. With eight of us we never got in each others' way. The pool and spa were great, but we were too busy seeing the sights to use them much. Lillian, John and Bernie were always helpful and friendly without being intrusive. I can heartily recommend this property to anyone wanting a great place to stay in PD.

Hello David and friends - It was great having you all stay at our Beach House. We have been very busy with the house and the Motel which is great. The fruit trees are now starting to bear oranges and lemons so that is good to see. Next time you come up to Port Douglas we hope to see you all. Regards Lillian
We had a group of 8 staying here and loved the property. The pool and garage area was great to hang out in and we had all of the necessities provided including towels, insect repellant and sunscreen.
The property also has a barbecue and some bikes!
It was tidy, comfortable and was in a perfect location to the beach and shops.
Thanks for having us Lillian! If we come back to Port Douglas we would definitely stay again.

Awesome location
Clean and spacious house with plenty of room to relax or dine, and for the kids to run around. Pool is sparkling clean. Perfect location to walk everywhere in Port. Very quiet despite being on the main road into town.

Fantastic Property and Perfect Location
My husband, myself and our 3 older children came to stay here in early May, it was a dream.
Extremely clean, spacious, excellent facilities and of course a private pool which the kids made very good use of.
The rooms are big and the outdoor undercover area was the perfect spot to eat in the early evening.
Literally just around the corner from the main street of Port Douglas, you could walk to any of the bars and restaurants. And the beach was just around the corner in the opposite direction.
I highly recommend staying here. We will be back.

Excellent Town! Excellent Property to enjoy it!
We were 8, 2 adults and 6 kids and spent a week at Port Douglas.
The Beach House couldn't be better. The house is fully equiped, very simple and convenient. Very well located, two blocks from the Beach, three blocks from the Marina, and half a block from the main street. Lilian and her family run the motel next door and are ready to assist you in anything you may need.
We definitively recomend it. Nico

Great location. Beautiful house.
We were 2 familiea of 2 adults and 2 small kids each, and the house fit us comfortably. We were surprised that the house was in such a great, central location, in an area where apartments were; 5 mins walk to beach and shops in central port douglas. The perfectly sized pool for young children was a great bonus, and the kitchen had everything we needed to cook. The greatest surprise was the cost; would have expected more for such a large, perfectly located beach house.

Perfection....
We loved the house, we loved the location and we loved the privacy the beach house offered us. Lillian, John and Bernie were wonderful, helpful and accomodating, they made our stay very easy. The house accomodated us all well, it was well furnished, the pool was fantastic and the spa was very well used. Port Douglas is a wonderful place to holiday, it has so much to offer but the people are what makes it a wonderful place. Thank you so much for allowing us to use your beach house for the holiday we needed and loved.

Wonderful holiday home!
My family and I stayed at The Beach House for 4 nights during our holiday and we wished it could have been for longer!
Perfect location - a couple of minutes stroll to the beach and all the shops and restaurants of Port Douglas, and only a little bit further to the Marina for all of the boat trips out to the reef.
The house itself was really lovely, with great lounge area which comfortably fitted the 7 of us, big bedrooms and a pool and spa to help us really relax. We made use of the BBQ and large eating area, whilst also making the most of the great location by trying out some of the local restaurants.
Our hosts John and Lillian couldn't have done more to make us feel settled and welcome, and to help us with the local area. They were wonderful to talk to, and really went out of their way to make sure we were having a great time.
We really hope to one day return and I can thoroughly recommend The Beach House to all!

A home away from home
What a wonderful holiday house, we felt right at home as soon as we arrived. Lillian, John and Bernie were very welcoming and just couldn't do enough for us. Great location with only a 2 minute walk to the Main Street of restaurants and shops as well as the beach. The house had everything you need, a great yard and pool for the kids plus a really enjoyable entertaining area. Very functional and practical which made our holiday even more relaxing. No hesitation of staying here again next time we return to Port Douglas.

The Beach House was a fantastic place for our extended family to stay this past school holidays whilst in Port Douglas. Freshly renovated, we found it to be both clean and functional with plenty of space and good size bedrooms. It's 2 minutes walk to town, 2 minutes across the road to the beach and occupies an absolutely huge block of land, 2000m, with a great garden for the kids to run about aswell as a full size pool and hot tub. The owners Lillian and John met us when we arrived and were very welcoming and couldn't do enough for us to make sure we had a fabulous stay. We've already booked fror next year!
