We spent a week at QT Port Douglas over the April school holidays. This was our second stay at this property as we stayed for two weeks three years ago when it was still Rydges Sabaya. Overall, the renovation of this resort is really good. The rooms have been refurbished as have the restaurant and bar areas. The pool area... More

Just got back from a 2 night stay at QT Port Douglas. Needed to get away from town for a few nights and relax and QT Port Douglas provided the perfect backdrop for our escape. Loved the pool area with the pool bar. The big bed lounges by the pool were great for spending the whole day there if you... More

Stayed for a conference but managed to get in some leisure time too. The QT make over of this old Rydges is clean and quite hip in many aspects but I feel that they could have focused a bit more on the essentials. Specifically I was disappointed that there was any in room Wi-Fi which was an issue because the... More

Really friendly staff; clean and modern rooms and facilities; big pool area and good attention to detail with showers in reception and large umbrellas in the rooms for the wet season!! Food was lovely; the buffet was delicious. Only 2 slight negatives were that breakfast was a bit on the cold side; might be worth investing in some stronger heat... More

What a fabulous place. I agree with other reviews that the beds are very soft, but apart from that I can't fault it. It's look and feel is very cool, and staff were on the whole accommodating (bar staff definitely had the edge over the restaurant staff in terms of service and manner). It looks beautiful, atmosphere is great, we... More

From the moment we stepped out of our vehicles, we were welcomed by the friendliest staff in very quirky uniforms that really grabbed attention. Josh from reception was very especially helpful and went out of his way to assist us with all our needs. Sarah at the restaurant was AMAZING and worked really well with the chefs to make our... More

We stayed for four nights last weekend with a wedding group of approximately 30+ people. From the moment we entered reception, we got a sense of the relaxation and fun that was about to unfold over our stay. Often a venue that is this cool will sacrifice their service with staff that think they're too cool for skool. But not... More

Strayed for 2 nights in a 1 bedroom 'resort' room. Room was very small, bed VERY soft (as pointed out by other reviewers) & the TV reception was terrible. However, all of this was outweighed by the perfect setting & atmosphere, friendly staff (nothing was too much trouble) & wonderful food. It was a perfect place to unwind & I'll... More

I'm really loving the new boutique QT hotels, they are young, fun and funky. I've stayed at QT Gold Coast and now Port Douglas. I just have one more to sample in Sydney! Now on QT PD; it carries a very similar theme to Gold Coast as in they try to tie in the local landscape. I love the laid... More

Everything about QT has exceeded expectations. The staff & service is exceptional & they have gone out of their way to make our stay a great one. Both restaurants are really delicious & fairly priced. The lagoon pool was a highlight as was strolling around the beautiful grounds & meeting the local birds. Highly recommended

Official Description (provided by the hotel):
The next instalment in the QT Resorts series, QT Port Douglas, will be ready to bed on May the 12th, 2012.QT Resorts were launched by QT Port Douglas' gorgeous sister resort, QT Gold Coast, and this second coastal paradise will also include signature concepts such as the Bazaar Marketplace dining option that has quickly become the number one rated culinary experience on the Gold Coast. All guest rooms have been given a facelift with new QT beds, 42" flat screen TVs, and hand-sourced stylish fabrics and finishes. You will see in this resort the thread of designer decor that lifts QT Resorts to a new level of sophistication. The addition of 100 sun loungers by the pool can also be seen, forming the perfect vantage point from which to sip the day away. QT Port Douglas has a new open bar area, Estilo, which will be the place where you whet your lips before you dine in Bazaar, and to keep you swimwear ready, we also have begun an update on our gym and leisure offerings. From June until September, you can take in the balmy nights in front of a custom cinematic experience, Moonlight Cinema, designed especially for our guests. This sun kissed resort is a must for a lover of designer hotels and resorts. ... more   less
