Great location at Palm Cove, very central. Photos made accommodation look very good. In reality it's a little tired but painting and furniture refurb are currently underway. Management excellent.

Our apartment was perfect for 2 people. It was spotlessly clean, well-appointed and with everything we could need. We had a beautiful view overlooking the garden and the sea beyond. The complex was very quiet and well-located for restaurants, shops and the local bus. We particularly appreciated the private transfers to and from the airport and the opportunity to visit Port Douglas for the Sunday market. Lisa and Peter were very congenial and helpful hosts and we loved our stay.

The location was amazing, just steps from the beach. The room was clean and comfortable with all the amenities we wanted for a few day's stay including clothes washer and dryer and full kitchen. The pool and pool area was beautiful. There were jets for a relaxation, nice lounge chairs and even a grill for cooking out. Would highly recommend.
