The unit needed a really good clean. It had a bad drain smell on arrival. I advised the owner and they attempted to rectify some things. It required a total spring clean.

Apartment good size with everything needed. Some maintenance required, rain shower broken, outdoor sofa stained. Room was not cleaned well, I had to clean on arrival. The location is great, short walk to Macrossan Street. We were on top floor, no lifts so bit of work with suitcases.

The room we had was very run down and tired. There were tiles that were cracked and even lifting in parts. The lounge furniture and outdoor furniture was worn out. Apartment was very spacious and its position is perfect for any visit to Port Douglas being an easy walking distance to anywhere you want to visit while in town. Pool was kept at a really nice temperature for ease of getting in. Has got a lot of potential for being an amazing place to stay but the rooms are in dire need of a refurb before I would be interested in staying here again.

The apartment is a bit dated but Spacious. We knew there were no lifts before we booked. Reception offered to help with bags but we were fine. There was a problem with the hot water and that was fixed the next day. It must have been the low season when we stayed for a week. My only Gripe is the pool collected leaves and stuff every day and was only cleaned once. Which took some enjoyment away from the pool area. This apartment is a short walk to the Main Port Douglas shopping street with plenty of choices for restaurants.

Was great location, close to beach and main street.
Beds are too hard by far, cleanliness was ok but I believe it was more to do with the age of the apartment. Needs refresh. Reception and Management were lovely and helpful.

Location was beautiful, steps from the beautiful 4 mile beach with surf swimming. Short walk to downtown shopping and loads of dining options. Accommodation was comfortable, spacious and well stocked. Loved lush surroundings with birds serenading.
We give it the highest rating.

Great apartment for our group, 2 bedrooms both with ensuite. A little on the older side, but very spacious, tidy and comfortable for our short stay. Great location and convenient to town and beach. Free off street parking is also a great bonus!

Clean & Spacious
Very clean & spacious 2BR apartment that was close to the waterfront & to restaurants/cafes. We had a ground floor apartment which was great, but if you have a lot of luggage then maybe request this or else you will have stairs to conquer. Reception staff were very friendly & communicated well, & even offered to help with luggage etc. I would book again next time in Port Douglas
