Great location and unit.
Our initial room had a problem with the hot water so we were moved and upgraded. Great customer service. Beds the most comfortable in PD. Offered late check out which was a life saver due to a cancelled flight. Very impressed. Great location convenient to everything but not noisy. Will definitely return.

Great spot. Short walk to beach and back from the beach front so protected from winds. Pool is great. Always clean. Very clean rooms, good aircon, big TV lots of free channels and easy connection to Kayo etc. Thoroughly recommend. Looking forward to next stay there.

We are just home after a wonderful stay at beach terraces. Location was perfect for beautiful morning walks on beach, latte on way back before a swim in the pool. Great stay. Thank you.

We have found our 2nd home in Port Douglas. Having visited Port Douglas many times as we love it, and stayed in many different accommodations, we have found a forever place to return to. The property and staff are excellent and the cleanliness is top level. Beach Terraces is walking distance to the beach and the main street. We will be back very soon!!

This property was not what was represented online when I booked. The apartment was dark and gloomy, in desperate need of an update, old dark bulky furniture, bathrooms old, grates on the windows and outside pool areas cluttered. We unfortunately did not stay and left to find somewhere else to stay. Disappointed is an understatement.
Response from Manager on 9 Jan 2023
So sorry you did not enjoy your stay. It if unsual to for us to receive a review such as this. We would happily have tried to find an alternative for you. I am not sure why window screens would be described as grates? We have a front pool area with sun loungers and the rear BBQ an pool area has table chairs and sun loungers there is plenty of room.

We have a family of 5, including a baby and stayed in the 2 bed, 2 balcony apartment. There was plenty of room for the family and it was great that we had use of the washing machine and dryer. Beds super comfy. Great that pool towels were supplied. The kids loved the pool, we all had a fabulous time - I would highly recommend this property.

Property was a great position, within easy walking to beach, shops, restaurants but still in a quiet area.Our stay was end of July school holidays. Weather not as warm as usual so not a lot of action around the pools so very quiet. Very clean.Our bedroom (No5)could be in a noisy position at peak time due to people walking past to other rooms and using stairwell but everyone was quiet at night whilst we were there.Had no issues at all.

Great location, easy walk to beach and town, quiet. Pool area nice & pool heated so very warm, beds comfortable and bedding/sheets very clean but overall the place needs some TLC. Leaking toilet & oven not working, outdated quicker furtive in rooms just harbouring months of dust! Plus some spring cleaning would help dust the cobwebs off the ceilings too.

If only the apartment was as good as the grounds
The location of the property is great, the grounds are beautiful and well kept but the apartments themselves are dated and the furniture is tatty and rundown. The coffee table was broken in places, light fittings were broken, the outside dining table was old and looked dirty and the blind mechanism was so worn it didn’t work.

Spacious apartment with super aircon
Nice spacious apartment , 1 block from the beach and 1 block from the top of the Main Street. Aircon and fans were plenty , the fridge is large and the kitchen is well equiped . There’s also a washing machine . We think it was excellent for a small family for a week and good value for money at this time of the year

The overall appearance of the property was nice, beautiful pools. The unit we were in was a bit run down. The dishwasher leaked, the shower, too, and the upholstery on the couch looked stained. There was not enough hot water for 4 people to have showers consecutively. One bedroom lacked a fly screen on the window, resulting in lots of mosquito bites for our kids. The master bedroom faced the busier road and was very noisy from early in the morning with cars passing by.

I am very surprised at this anonymous review! All windows close securely and have screens, smoking is allowed on the balconies. We rarely have a poor review but have to factor in some guests just expect more than we can offer.

We arrived to find there was no room available for us..upon investigation the owner found our booking had been overlooked due to internet problems, we were lucky enough to get a room closeby for two nights then come back to the apartment we had originally booked. The owners were very apologetic but this was not the start of the holiday we had respected

Hi Juls, As you know we were very sorry for the mix up and we compensated you by giving you a complimentary tour. Unfortunately, with online bookings it only takes a glitch in the computer system to miss an email booking and we are unable to organise reminder emails with Expedia, we have now put into process a weekly booking check to hopefully not have this reoccur. I do believe overall you had a lovely stay with your friends.

Hello Thank you for your review, unfortunately, there are very few properties in Port Douglas that have lifts. As Port mainly consists of small & more personal holiday complexes as opposed to the large chain hotels. We are very clear on our building information that there are stairs, should guests not want to climb stairs a ground floor request is all that is needed. Very pleased you enjoyed your stay.
