"Really enjoyed our stay here. Highlights were the amazing pool, the food in the restaurant (particularly the Indonesian night), the big rooms (although dated), beautiful trees and the rainforest walk through. I recommend 'Port Douglas premium transfers' to and from the airport - awesome driver. SR coaches cancelled on us. Port Douglas is incredible, the beach is so beautiful. Also a great cafe called St. Crispins a short walk from the resort with awesome food and coffee. We would come back and stay here!"

"Excellent location. two minute walk to the beach and on the same street as all the restaurants and shops. Our room was super clean when we arrived and I was pleasantly surprised that there was a wand in the shower. The staff were so very friendly and helpful. My only negative comment would be that there are no electrical outlets by the night stands (at least in our room). We had to run an extension cord from the other side of the room to the night stand so that I could use my cpap machine for sleeping. Otherwise, everything was great."

"Everything about the hotel was lovely. The only complaint we had was the hallways echo so every time a neighbor leaves you can hear their door slamming shut. Other than that it was a beautiful property and close to the beach!"

"This was a beautiful little hotel. It was walkable to lots of restaurants and shops. I was looking forward to doing some laundry while here on my one night stay but the young man from the front desk had 1 of the 2 washing machines and the only dryer tied up most of the day so I was not able to get any laundry done. Even when I told him I had a short time to stay, he did not offer to let me go ahead of him and use the dryer, which takes over an hour to dry clothes. I could have stayed at the hotel for the rest of the day to get my laundry done but I wanted to get out and explore the beautiful little town and I’m hoping to do laundry at my next hotel."
