We were with our 19 and 21 yr old kids. We stayed 2 nights. We rented an apt for ourselves and one for the kids. We were very satisfied with the cleanliness and accomodations. David and Joyce were responsive and helpful with suggestions. The office hours are limited, so plan your interactions wth them accordingly. The location is excellent because... more

I think my title says it all. Nice accommodation, own kitchen and shared BBQ. Right on Port Douglas' main strip. Nice staff. And for the price! You really couldn't beat it. If you want to be waited on hand and foot then you should go somewhere else. Ray more

There are nice lounge chairs and 2 BBQ's. The rooms are modern and roomy. It is nice b/c in your room you have a stovetop, microwave,... more

As other reviewers have noted this is a barebones holiday apartment - they provide you with a room/bed/tv & you provide/do the rest. If you don't expect more then you should be ok. The rooms are run down but they are adequate for a few days as you will not spend much time in the rooms in Port Douglas. They... more

We thank our guest for his comments. We have many positive and honest reviews on this site and we would like to reply. Our guest gave 36 hours notice for his booking and requested a first floor apartment. As our occupancy was high during April, we only had one double bed apartment on the first floor available.

We stayed at this hotel for 7 nights. We arrived late, and there was no one at the counter, but this is not a "hotel" it is an apartment hotel. There was a note left with easy to follow instructions for our room. The room was clean and just the right size for 2 people. The kitchen area was small,... more

We stayed at Port Douglas Retreat for 7 days in December. It is useful to search for package deals on the internet as we only paid $89 Oz a night. The apartment was small but fully functional and comfortable with a view of the pool. Whilst we stayed it was very quiet and we had the pool to ourselves most... more

I only spent one night in this horrible three and a half star hotel, having booked it for a week via a travel agent. I have had to spend well over 600 British pounds in organising other accommodation with no guarantee I will get any $ back (I am not a rich person). Having said that I was still desparate... more

It is unfortunate that a person can make unsubstantiated defamatory comments for the simple reason she didn’t get what she wanted. This being her money refunded. This guest booked through a travel agent in March 2008, therefore the reservation was held by us for 5 months prior to their arrival. As we were fully booked we have had to decline...

We have just stayed for a week at Port Douglas Retreat and have to say having stayed in other places over the years this is the best place in Port Douglas. The rooms are studio style, clean and bright, they are great for 2 people. The King beds are HUGE, the best nights sleep! The pool area is so much... more
