Slip into holiday mode at this tropical retreat, just a five-minute stroll from Palm Cove’s vibrant town centre. Combining a spacious apartment with a private studio, this stay offers the perfect balance of connection and seclusion. Unwind in the air-conditioned living area, cook in the full kitchen, or sip coffee on the leafy balcony. Outside, discover separate pools for adults and kids, a gym, a day spa, and an onsite restaurant serving fresh local flavours—all just steps from your door. Set on the second floor, this dual-key retreat blends a spacious main apartment with a fully self-contained studio, all tucked within the prestigious Sea Temple Resort & Spa. Inside, the main living area offers a calming space to unwind, with soft sofas, a TV, and tranquil views of the tropical greenery beyond.
The full kitchen features an oven, dishwasher, coffee machine, and generous bench space, making home cooking effortless. Nearby, an eight-seater dining table sets the scene for relaxed, shared meals. After dining, step out onto the spacious balcony, where swaying palms and leafy surrounds create a breezy sanctuary for morning coffees or golden-hour drinks.
Designed for relaxation, each bedroom offers a peaceful retreat. The primary suite features a king bed, wall-mounted TV, private balcony access, and a sleek ensuite with dual showers, twin vanities, and a spa bath. The second bedroom also has a king bed, while the third offers two singles that can convert to a king on request. These share a bright, spa-inspired bathroom with elegant finishes. Keep things fresh with an in-unit laundry with a washer, dryer, and sink.
The studio is a self-contained hideaway, complete with a king bed, an ensuite with a spa bath, and a private balcony overlooking the lagoon-style pool. A compact kitchenette with a mini fridge, microwave, and coffee machine adds extra convenience for quiet mornings or late-night snacks.
Wander through leafy garden paths to discover three shimmering lagoon pools, perfect for cooling dips or unwinding on a sun lounger under the palms. Sip a chilled drink or enjoy a relaxed meal at the resort’s bar and restaurant, just moments from the energy of the esplanade and the gentle sound of the sea. For those looking to keep active, a well-equipped gym is also available within the resort.
Stay comfortable with central air-conditioning and ceiling fans. The apartment is easily accessed via lift, ensuring convenience from arrival to departure.

Whether you're looking for a relaxing beach getaway or an adventure-filled stay, Palm Cove has something to offer everyone. It offers a vibrant plethora of cafes, bars and restaurants along Williams Esplanade. Dine at Vivo Bar & Grill, a beachfront restaurant with an Italian-inspired menu and a focus on fresh, local ingredients, or at Reef House Restaurant for a fine dining experience with a focus on modern Australian cuisine. Take a scenic, vintage train ride through the rainforest and passing waterfalls via the Kuranda Scenic Railway, then return to Palm Cove on the Skyrail gondola. For a 30-minute drive to Port Douglas, kids will love a visit to the Wildlife Habitat and get up close with wallabies, koalas and more. Whether you are a snorkeler or a certified diver, make sure to book a day trip adventure to the Great Barrier Reef.

Great property. It’s in a fantastic location, has all you need and is super comfortable for large family. The only thing that could be improved would be wifi. I actually had to disconnect from wifi to get better internet coverage.
