Fabulous

Fabulous place, clean spacious apartment with everything you need. Staff were friendly & helpful. It is a little out of town but if you have a car this is no bother and lots of secure parking. Close to the beach and lovely pool area. Would go back.

Port Douglas

Staff were great and very helpful. The pool area was great. The resort was about 15-20 minute walk into town. Rooms and living area were comfortable. The beds were ok but may need to update mattress. Port Douglas is a great spot to visit.

Great holiday

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Port Douglas. The apartment was well located & had everything we needed. It was a little tired in places but it was clean & as we spent most of our time out it didn’t really matter. We didn’t meet any staff but they communicated well by email.
