8/10 Very good

Very centrally located apartment right on 4 mile beach. 2 good sized bedrooms, both with ensuites - perfect for 2 couples. Good sized living space with large balcony. Large parking bay. Peaceful area at night. Right opposite the Surf Life Saving Club and Surfy's Bar & Restaurant which is good value for money with great views of the beach. Loved having laundry facilities in the apartment. Very near to restaurants & supermarket. Marina is walkable 15 mins away. The pool and hot tub area is very nice. New bbq was installed while we were there. The general areas within the apartment were clean and tidy but window frames/sills were a bit dusty - did not affect our enjoyment of the space and area.

8/10 Very good

Great spot. Easy to walk to Four Mile Beach and the Main Street in Port Douglas. The unit was a little rundown and in need of a renovation. Some of the towels had black marks on them too (maybe a problem with the washing machine?!?!).The pool facilities and gardens were well maintained. Overall we enjoyed our stay. Point to note…there is a water area being built directly opposite. It could be noisy during construction but would be a great area for kids once completed.

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!

Revamp of rooms needed, quite outdated. Also lots of dust build up on air conditioners and blinds, mould in bathroom/showers. Great area though, splash park across the road and walkable to the main street.

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.

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 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.
Steph, 6-night trip

8/10 Very good

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.
