Sheraton Grand Mirage Resort, Port Douglas

Expedia Verified Review

5 / 5 Excellent

Fantastic hotel for our family. We had a very nice room and enjoyed the awesome swimming pools and location right on the beach that is perfect for a morning or evening walk. We had low expectations for the food options having read some of the reviews here, but we found the food was absolutely fine at the main restaurant, and when delivered to room or pool-side. We visited from NZ in July when temperatures were around 25 degrees and would definitely recommend to other Kiwis looking to escape the NZ winter.

It has one heated pool out of four lagoons but the swim out was nice. Close walk to Beach Shack for dinner and St Crispins Choo Choo cafe for breakfast. Both yummy. Port has shuttle buses that cost around $5 per person to ride into town and back. just call the mobile number and they will come past or jump on if they turn up. Convenient system. Would stay again.

We enjoyed our time at this resort. We stayed in a mid-range villa which was well appointed and spacious. 1 bathroom and bedroom for each couple. There are some Cafes and local shops close by. We enjoyed the heated main pool and sundeck. Staff were friendly. The Main Port Douglas street was a short drive. Great winter destination. The only slight negative the internet seems to be patchy in Port Douglas. Our room came with a 2gb daily limit

Great place. Friendly, helpful hosts. Good value and in a location which encourages you to take the easy walk into town central. The pool and BBQ were brilliant. Room was spacious, comfortable and well equipped. King size bed really good. We’ll be back and strongly recommend. Only suggestion - if you’re driving, go very very slowly out the exit into Mudlo st as the drainage ditch across the drive is quite a steep drop. You’ve got to watch out for these in PD and Cairns in general
