This a great place to stay for a longer visit to the area. Room was very spacious and well appointed. There is a binder in the unit that details everything you need to know about the property (laundry) and surrounding area. Having access to laundry on the property was fantastic and the machines did a great job ($9 AUD). The Beach is just around the corner from the property - amazing paths with access to shops, restaurants -- ideal vacation spot - so laid back. Palm Cove is a gem - less than an hour to Port Douglas and the drive is so beautiful, yet very windy roads. Highly recommend Palm Cove area.

The Reef Retreat was perfect for the few nights we were is Cairns. The pool and A/C made the heat a little more bearable and Jim was always available to assist with cabs/transport bookings and offer advice.
50m from the beach and the esplanade, which leads in both directions to a variety of excellent shops, bars and eateries.

A very roomy, comfortable townhouse in an excellent location. Easy walking distance to the esplanade with Pete’s just on the corner. Two bedrooms had fly screens on windows which was great. A big dining table with a comfy couch for meals and relaxing. Staff were also amazing, we needed a couple of things and they were friendly, fast and very accomodating. Looking forward to coming back! 😊

We have stayed before and found it comfortable and quiet. Easy location off the main esplanade but close enough to come and go and avoid the wind. The sheltered pool is an oasis. Unit is set up well clean and comfortable.

Arrived late to find a safe on the wall with instructions above how to open it, inside were the room keys, anyone could have taken them!
The footpath towards the room were badly maintained large cobbles, not easy with a suitcase.
I the found my Roo to be on the 2nd floor accessed by open wooden staircase joined by wooden platforms - news to me. I was lucky enough to have a friend with me to help with my suitcase as there was no way I could have got it up the stairs.
Initial impressions was the place appeared tired and a bit tatty. The pool appeared a bit grubby, but I didn’t actually stand at the edge, that was from the footpath.
The room was clean and functional.
Saw 2 members of staff during my stay, one borderline rude and disinterested, the other quite pleasant.
It is well located in the town.
Would I stay there again? No.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Reef Resort.The staff were very helpful and accommodating.
We loved the tropical rainforest feel.Our very clean studio room had everything we needed including a lovely balcony that looked out over the trees. Great for afternoon drinks!
The weather wasn’t the best while we were there but an umbrella was supplied and it was beautiful sitting in the outdoor heated spa watching the rain fall.
Great position and walking
distance to everything.
Highly recommend and would love to stay again
