"Reef Resort Villas is an excellent place to stay in Port Douglas. The Villas are large (two bedroom), clean, self-contained (including two bathrooms and a well equipped laundry) and have a 'wow factor'. Everything required was provided in a fully equipped kitchen; the lounge was comfortably furnished and included a large screen smart TV and excellent Audio system; and the beds were comfortable with good linen. Staff at reception were most helpful. The grounds were pleasant and included a beautiful pool. An on-call shuttle (5-7 minute delay between calling and arrival) service was cost effective to travel to- and from- town, where all necessary shops, cafes and restaurants were available. Tour operators pick you up from your door. That the Villa was not serviced daily was not an issue, and the 'Restaurant' on site is more a limited-range cafe. Food was available by delivery, but with the excellent kitchen, buying groceries and cooking for yourself works well. For excellent dining options, two restaurants in Port Douglas stand out: Salsa and Melaleuca, both on Wharf Street. Both these offer fine food and service, but while prices were at the top end, they were not excessive. The best coffee in Part Douglas is from Origin Espresso on Grant Street. You will really enjoy Port Douglas and a stay with Reef Villas Resort."

"The place is great overall! It's quiet and within walking distance to the main street with all the restaurants and shops (15 mins max). The four mile beach is less than a 10-min walk which is nice. The marina where all the GBR boats leave from is about a 15-min walk which is again not bad. The room is clean and tidy and the kitchen is a nice addition. The pool was always empty when I stayed here. I'm usually picky with hotel bathrooms because it's very easy for mould to grow at the corners around the showers and bath tub but nope it was all white and clean. You'd have to pay for the safe though, I'm not from Australia so not sure how common this is. No complaints overall!"

"We stayed for one night weren’t offered a upgrade The iron in the room had been dropped and the bottom was cracked so couldn’t put water to steam iron my linen cloths The shutters had come off it’s runners and couldn’t close for privacy"

"I stayed for four nights with my three year old and mum (visiting from the UK) and we had the best time. The apartment was clean, and we loved the swimming pool and convenience to the beach, and everywhere in Port Douglas. The staff were so helpful and friendly and full of many recommendations. We would definitely go back, and recommend. "
