“Tropical gem”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 February 2012

person found this review helpful

We stayed at the Martinique on Macrossan in Port Douglas for just one night on January 10, 2012, frankly because the other property we had looked at on the Internet was not available for three nights. The apartment style room was clean and comfortable with an effective A/C unit. The property was a tropical garden, quiet and beautifully maintained with a small private pool. We loved the location, in easy walking distance from the beach and the town stores and restaurants. The free Wi-Fi Internet connection in the lobby actually worked from our room, and had a reliable, fast connection, a problem in some of our other stops. For us though, the highlight of the property was the owners. Antonia and Fred could not have been more friendly, hospitable or helpful. Despite our short stay, they provided lots of good practical advice on the town, sightseeing, restaurants and reef tours. They booked trips for us. They allowed us to use their towels on our next day excursion and keep our car in their garage. We even met them the next day at a restaurant they had suggested (and the food was excellent). If we were to return to Port Douglas, we would certainly stay at the Martinique again.

“You'll leave wanting more”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 February 2012

person found this review helpful

Marinique on Macrossan is one of those places that oozes atmosphere. The owners Fred and Antonia are charming and likely to be seen in their excercise gear feeding the fish in the fishpond or hosing the BBQ area, always with a smile on their face.
The rooms are gorgeous without being clinical and the location is far enough out of town to be peaceful and close enough for a casual walk. Oh and you could virtually spit into four mile beach from your verandah.
The television channels can be limited and hard to navigate but television will be the last thing on your mind during a stay in Port Douglas. The rooms get hot, so make sure you turn the air-con on as soon as you get back from your activities.
Antonia is a delight to deal with for booking things to do and she will always point you in the right direction, with no bias in sight!

Room Tip: Try and get a room on the lower levels, they're cooler and don't involve stairs.

“Making you feel at home”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 February 2012

We booked this hotel based on recommendations on this site. It couldn't be more accurate. The owners make you feel at home helping with everything from tour and transfer confirmations to late check out. Rooms are large, new and clean. The pool area in the backyard isperfect for a post diving relaxation. Location is central.

“Lovely stay!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 January 2012

Perfect location, close to the beach & very quiet as it's at the end of the main street. Room was neat and tidy and gardens/pool were well maintained. Very good value for money & helpful service. Only downside is that they don't have a lift so I wouldn't recommend this hotel if you're not comfortable with going up and down stairs.

“Location Location Location what more can I say”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 January 2012

We came in on Christmas Eve and the key and instructions had been left for us at the front desk. Everything was clean and well appointed. We had sent an email earlier to have the fridge stocked with some yogurts for breakfast as we new that Christmas Day everything would be closed. They were waiting in the fridge and in the morning a Christmas cake was left at the door for us. What a welcome.
The locations is right in town at the end of the street a nice walk to shops and restaurants.
As we left early in the morning for a flight the night before the owner settled up with us told us how to leave the key and not worry about anything he even arranged the early pick up outside of the hotel.
Thanks for making this a wonderful stay wish we had more time here.
