The look of the resort was not what we expected considering what is shown on the website – plus rated as 4.5 star – it has a rundown appearance and is in desperate need of some attention…. On arrival you are greeted with a lovely platter of tropical fruit – lovely…that is if you had somewhere to put it…there was... More

stayed here for 4 nights. The first day we arrived we got put into a pokey little room, tinny out of date bathroom,tinny tv with really bad sound, the batteries for the remote were dead. Asked if we could be moved to another room, the lady said there was none available anything during our stay due to weddings. Asked a... More

We stayed here for 7 nights March 2012, nice place peaceful atmosphere , loved the Balinese inspired gardens. Some maintenance required overall. Our unit was large enough for two , nice bathroom and kitchen ( kitchen cupboards did have a weird smell about them ) The air conditioner is not in the best place ,each room had ceiling fans as...

We recently stayed at hibictus for 7 nights and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It's in a great position a stone throw from the beach and main strip with all the cafes, restaurants and shops. The rooms are decent(clean) with a well stocked kitchen and the pools are nice and well maintained. If you're seeking a family friendly place to stay... More

Shane at Hibiscus is great. The rooms are self contained. Good kitchen and several Weber BBQ's to use. Two good size pools to use. The fire lights at night around he resort add a romantic mood. Breakfast was excellent lots of local produce to try. This place is 100meters from the centre of Port Douglas. A great place to stay... More

Hibiscus is not a big, slick resort like others further away from the main street but it's beautiful, comfortable and feels more personal. Timber decking runs throughout with tall palms and all forms of tropical plants and 2 pools. The lighting and flames next to the pool outside our apartment was really stunning at night. Our apartment was large and... More

Recently stayed at the hotel over Christmas 2011. The area is lovely and the accommodations are nice but there are some drawbacks that visitors should be aware of. Do not arrive after dark or outside of the reception hours. We arrived at 7:30 pm to find reception closed and an envelope at the desk with our name on it. This... More

I’m two streets from the main action of Port Douglas and I’m having breakfast with the birds. I’m not in a fancy zoo or a tourist attraction, I’m sitting on the third floor balcony of my very lovely studio apartment at Hibiscus Gardens Spa Resort and parrots a swooping all around me. Through the tall palms and the spiky pandanus,... More

Our room was tiny, dirty (there was sand everywhere on the floor inside on the day we arrived) and we only received a mid-week clean despite the fact we were charged an extra $70 per day for a full daily service. I'm still trying to chase up with the resort but they seem to have disappeared off the face of... More
