Spent a week here, great accommodations- comfortable with everything we needed, even washing machine and tumble drier in largish bathroom. Lots to see and do from this location, not too far to most attractions. Great helpful and informative receptionist-Linda.

Such an amazing place to stay. Stayed for 12 nights and so relaxing and Linda so helpful, pleasant but not intrusive in any way. The gardens are simply beautiful and the beach 2 minutes walk away. The rooms are spacious and extremley comfortable. All amenties and more are provided. Highly recommend this accommodation to everyone. Hopefully we will be able to return and enjoy Clifton Sands once again.

Room tip: Researched properties from Cairns to Port Douglas.This was the best property had every you could need, affordable and we would say 5 star.

Spent two weeks here at Clifton Sands and would highly recommend a stay. Not to be cliche but literally a stones throw away from the beautiful Clifton Beach, and a short scenic stroll away from Palm Cove. The complex has a very nice pool with seating and sun lounge area which is perfectly positioned to catch a full day of tanning. The surrounding tree's and plants are kept in amazing order by staff and you get a real feel of Tropical Queensland. The apartment its self was perfect, very spacious, clean and modern. Myself and my partner had a balcony facing the beach which was nice. The rooms are air conditioned and come fully equipped with flat screen TV and DVD, so you can fully relax after a day at the beach. Linda the manager was very accommodating and gave us some great suggestions on where to eat and which day trips are the worth while. On the days we needed to catch a bus to the centre the stop was outside the main entrance which was very useful, and was also a short walk to the local supermarket. All in all would definitely stay here again. Thanks for a perfect stay.

Spent a week at Clifton Sands and thoroughly enjoyed it - would return anytime! Loved the grounds with all the plants & flowers that Linda so carefully tends. Our apartment was clean and comfortable, and the beach is visible & audible at all times - just a short walk away. Linda was extremely welcoming and friendly at all times, and recommended and helped us book a number of tours in the area and made suggestions - all good - regarding different places to visit. We were glad to have her as a local expert! We enjoyed playing with her dogs and comparing world travel notes. Supermarkets and restaurants are all within easy reach. Even enjoyed the eerie screeching bush curlews!

We stayed here for 3 weeks in May 2014 while looking for long term accommodation and Linda made every effort to make us feel welcome and comfortable. She has such a great set up and everything is very clean. So when we needed another 10 day stay we went straight to Clifton Sands and had a second wonderful experience. In addition to her accommodation being clean inside and out and her kind hospitality, she books outings for travellers, supports locally owned businesses and has a great knowledge of the local flora and fauna. Ask her about the Sun Bird nests she is working to protect across the street. Oh and there is beautiful Clifton Beach a few steps away, tennis next door and a restaurant across the road.

Room tip: We stayed 1st and 3rd floor and found both enjoyable for different reasons.
