- Debbie W1 contributionLoves the location and beautiful balcony view. Also the staff were super friendly
I liked the layout of the room and fabulous sea view from the balcony. Easy hotel to get around. Great as a base for the area.Written 10 January 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

We also did the swim with the salt water crocs. It was just wonderful. Recommend you look them up and plan to spend a great few days there.Written 10 January 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Adrian R8 contributionsVisited opal reef on Calypso for a 3 dive day tripo. I had prepared myself for the reef to be in only average condition, but it was actually in stunningly good condition. I have been diving the reef for around 40 years, and it may just about be the best I have seen it.....very impressiveWritten 18 August 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Dan LBunbury, Australia6,948 contributionsMy wife was looking forward to the markets but due to the late start from Cairns many of the stall holders were already packing up when we arrived. Those stalls that still remained showcased a range of locally made arts and crafts, jewellery, leatherwork, timber carvings, varieties of local produce and assorted snacks and refreshments. Only had about 20 minutes but enough to whet the appetite for another visit.Written 30 December 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

It’s a beautiful location with palm trees fringing the water and mountains in the background.

- mapped2016Hong Kong, China4 contributionsHerold was excellent! I play a lot of tennis in Melbourne, (both social comp and cardio) I booked some lessons while up here mainly for the exercise. Herold was great! I had a lot of fun. He pointed some things out to me about the way I was hitting the ball. And the difference was amazing.
I can see why other reviewers say he would teach kids well too. He is friendly and really knows his tennis. The courts were great.
I highly recommend him for a lesson or a cardio type hit. I will definitely book again when we are here next year. And I will book my kids in for lessons too!Written 28 September 2017This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

You sit in the original jury seats and watch a video of the trial and at the end consider your verdict. There are also interesting photos and information about the Chinese gold miners in Port Douglas, the first marine biologists at Low Isles, and also information about the Battle of the Coral Sea.Written 27 November 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
