Top Port Douglas Hotel Reviews

Le Cher Du Monde

10/10 Excellent

"Very good"

Meridian Port Douglas - Adults only

10/10 Excellent

"We had a one bedroom apartment on the top floor with a full kitchen (except oven). There was a large balcony with table and chairs and a daybed. The pool is lovely. They do need to resurface the Jacuzzi, though. Also our apartment needs a new mattress. I appreciated the streaming capability of the TV and the great air conditioning."

By The Sea Port Douglas

10/10 Excellent

"Great location for Great Barrier Reef activities, right beside the 4 mile beach. The rooms were clean and fully functional kitchen. Staff was welcoming. Free chairs , umbrella and towels was appreciated . Wished the front desk was staffed extended hours, with 8-5 we were not able to exchange towels , used beach towel instead since we left early and returned later than 5 pm. Highly recommended."

Shantara Resort Port Douglas - Adults Only Retreat

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing property, spacious rooms, beautiful pool, great amenities. 5-min walk to main strip of restaurants, 10-15 min walk from reef tour meeting points. All rooms have balconies facing one of two pools, very quaint, romantic resort. Great AC and fans in rooms. Only warnings: housekeeping is by request only and costs money each day; and front desk is staffed 9-5 and no overnight coverage. This wasn’t necessarily a deterrent but given the price for the rooms, i was a bit taken aback to see these two services not provided. Front desk staff was nice and helpful."

Niramaya Villas and Spa

8/10 Good

"I love the layout of the property but please be aware due to proximity to the rainforest there are A LOT of bugs. My wife and I fought for our lives against a giant cockroach and the villa definitely had a lot of ants and spiders. The plunge hours being limited to the spa hours was a downside for us as well. My wife recommends the facial! The private pool was awesome. Truly if we didnt have the bug issues I would have given it 5 stars."
