Extravagant, peaceful and very tranquil. The views and hospitality was extraordinary. Anthony and Andre went out of their way to help us settle in and dropped us into the town and back so we could enjoy our dinner. We can not speak highly enough of the mai tai resort, the perfect place for a relaxing, private, romantic weekend away.

My wife and I spent 2 nights in the Lotus room at the Mai Tai and loved it. It has so much character and atmosphere. The rooms were spotlessly clean and the bed was really comfortable. The outside shower was great fun. My wife was a bit unsure about being so close to the forest but all the windows and... More

Andre and Anthony came to our rescue, helping us with a last-minute booking at Mai Tai when we called after having to cancel an overseas trip. They could not have been more helpful during our blissful ten nights at Mai Tai. We loved everything - fresh fruit and the view over rainforest and out to sea in the mornings; chatting... More

My husband and I spent 3 nights at the Mai Tai. Located in the rainforest the resort caters for only a small number of guests (adults only), it is therefore very intimate and peaceful and a perfect setting to relax and enjoy nature. A car is a necessity but the location is convenient for trips to Port Douglas and surrounding... More

What a stunning location and the perfect place to unwind. Set into the backdrop of the tropical rain forest with vistas out to the coral sea and Great Barrier Reef, surrounded by exotic nature. Peace, privacy with attentive hosts. Delicious breakfasts on the terrace. The Mai Tai was all it promised to be and more. Our four night stay went... More

Very hard to share words that have not already been said by previous guests. From the moment we arrived and were welcomed by Anthony we new we were going to enjoy our time at Mai Tai.

More than 6 months ago we stayed three nights with Andre and Anthony...and we are still singing their praises! We wished so much that we could have stayed longer. We arrived in the evening, to be greeted by our concerned hosts. Upon our arrival they immediately made calls to arrange our dinner at Mojo's Bar and Grill, an amazing restaurant... More
