We have just returned from a fabulous week spent at Port Douglas Sands Resort. We stayed with friends in Number 1 - a 3 bedroom ground floor apartment, right opposite the pool. The pool / BBQ area was gorgeous. You can help yourself to breakfast in a communal dining room - first time I've seen that in an apartment complex... More

Port Douglas Sands Resort was an ideal place for our family of five. Our kids are 20, 17 and 13 and we had a lovely week's stay. The resort was the perfect size - not too many apartments to be too imposing. Our ground floor apartment was right near the pool and the Breakfast room, so we had ideal access... More

Booked a couple of nights here after purchasing some cheap flights. Didn't think too much about it until a arrived.... Then i was completely treated to the most wonderfully maintained resort. It really made our holiday... It was so nice to come home to after a day out exploring. Staff were so friendly and helpful. Weather was fantastic, as Port... More

As a family of two adults and two young children we found the Sands Resort to be a great holiday option. Our second floor unit overlooking the central pool area was clean and spacious.

At first glance, Port Douglas Sands Resort looks quite unpreposessing compared to other accommodation in Port Douglas, but do not let that put you off. Once inside the gates, you have entered a small, tropical haven. We were there in January, on a four nights for the price of three deal, and loved every minute of our stay. Our apartment... More

The hotel was great. We made a last minute booking and were pleasantly surprised. The rooms are great. We stayed in a two bedroom apartment, which had full kitchen, laundry, great aircon and ceiling fans and a good lounge area. If there was any negative, it was that our main bedroom hosted the hot water service in the wardrobe which... More

Stayed for a week over the eclipse in a 2 bedroom appt. on the second floor at the back. Appt. was spacious with well equiped kitchen. Has washer and dryer in the bathroom. Was all clean and in good condition. The pool was great for our 6 year old daughter with a range of depths and an adjoining sandpit. There... More

As I always use a walking frame and a walking stick for very short distances, the apartment was spacious and ideal. I was concerned regarding my ability to manage, however it was baseless. There was a lift to the first floor and an plastic outdoor chair was used as a shower chair. The bed was extremely comfortable and the kitchen/laundry... More
