Stayed for 6 nights. The location of PD Retreat is very good, very handy to the shops, restaurants, beach and marina. We had a rental car and tripped away most days and a reef trip, On reflection 6 nights in PD is probably too long, our time would have been more enjoyable breaking our holiday to 2 - 3 different...

A great location for both the beach, centre and marina. Great pool and gardens, but quite shady due to trees. We were made very welcome. David and Joyce assisted us to book trips and gave advice when visiting Daintree rain forest and Kuranda. Apartment was well equipped with comfortable bed and good view over looking pool. Port Douglas is a... More

Stayed for a week and enjoyed the pool which had some warm water pumped through. Looked fantastic lit up at night. This is a very clean and well maintained resort and was good value. There were a number of noisy guests at the BBQ area for the first few nights and we were glad we didn't have a poolside room.... More

I had a wonderful time at Port Douglas, particularly with my stay at the Retreat. Dave and Joyce were so accomodating, even when I locked myself out of my room after hours (whoops!). The outdoor pool was a particular delight. The location was great, too. It was a couple streets from the main road, but a 5-10 minute walk from... More

Carnivale' in Port Douglas. Sounds like a good idea, but where to stay? You need to be close to the action, far enough away from the noise, comfortable, but have a respect for cost and have a pool that's not an afterthought. Here it is The Port Douglas Retreat. Run by Joyce and David, it's as if you are their... More

My wife and I stayed here for our honeymoon. We chose this place because of it close location to town and its recommendation from other people we know that had stayed here. Our shuttles had been pre arranged to take us from cairns to the retreat so no issues at all on getting there. But as we arrived at the... More

We thank our guest for their "review". Just some facts so the story is correct. We offer self serviced studio apartments, they are 36sq m as shown on our website, perfect for couples or single travellers. All our beds are 'king zip' these are two large singles zipped up (concealed zips) and have a mattress pad/topper placed over the top... More

We were pleased with our choice and found the Retreat to be an excellent place to chill out. The Retreat is close to the centre of Port Douglas and the Marina. Lovely couple who keep the site, and the rooms, very clean. A very good pool, deep in parts, with BBQ area adjoining. Ideal site for couples rather than families

We chose to stay in Port Douglas Retreat based on location and also the feedback given regarding the hosts, David and Joyce. We arrived late and there was an envelope with all the information required to get settled into our room quickly. The room itself was very pleasant, comfortable bed, A/C with a overhead fan and a nice wee balcony.... More

We were very satisfied with our recent stay at the Port Douglas Retreat. The location is great. 2 blocks from the Main Street, 2 blocks from the pier (where the dive/snorkel boats depart), and 3 blocks from the beach. The service was very nice and it was easy to book tours at the front desk. The pool is bigger than... More
