It was a lovely place to stay we really enjoyed being there, thank you.
Pros:

The location, the pool water was not highly chlorinated so was delightful to swim in.

Cons:

The door on bedroom one was very hard to open once closed.
A sign saying ‘Mind your Head’ on the low stair case is definitely necessary for guests.

Fair price for a fun holiday in a great location
Pros:

The location was great - a short walk to the beach, Macrossan Street and the estuary. Cafes close by. We had hours of fun in the main pool with our son and grandson.
The apartment was a good size and well equipped, if a little tired and worn in parts. Reflected in price for the room, so not a problem. Comfy bed, decent air conditioning. Underground parking handy when driving back in afternoon showers.
The managers and cleaning staff were friendly and helpful.

Cons:

Disturbed sleep from people above moving furniture around at all hours of the night. Would only stay on top floor next time.

Apartment 2 needs a serious pest control
Pros:

The location was top, close to the beach and water park.

Cons:

Apartment 2 behind the reception, where we were staying, was seriously infested with cockroaches. And yes, we are aware of cockroach problems in warm and humid climate conditions, but it was far more than that. Never ever before did we experience cockroaches that big (around 10cm) in the main bedroom, in the kitchen, in the pantry, in the verandah… Kids were scared to enter bathroom at night because the cockroaches were running under their feet… We even found a cockroach in the kids‘ cereal… We previously stayed with Seascape Holidays in Port Douglas and did not have any problems..

Lejlighedshotel tæt på stand og by- dog noget slidt
Pros:

Placeringen var perfekt- tæt ved strand og by.
Dejligt med god plads i lejligheden, og et godt udstyret køkken, samt mulighed for at vaske tøj.
Skønt med pool.

Cons:

Det svarede ikke til 4 stjernet lejlighedshotel. Det er meget slidt, mangelfuld rengøring, slidte og plettet badehåndklæder.
Det ville være dejligt med køkkenknive der kunne skærer.
Poolen blev ikke rengjort og der var blade og insekter i.

Apartment had everything you need. There’s a bbq outside for use. The staff were really nice. c.4 min walk into town, 2 min walk to the beach. We loved our stay.

Great, affordable option to stay in PD.
Pros:

The property is a bit dated but we had everything we needed. The room sizes were good as was the balcony. Really appreciated the late afternoon check out for no extra fee given our late Sunday night flight out of Cairns. Location was great.

Cons:

Was a bit cramped with the only toilet in with the bathroom/laundry but can’t be helped.

A wonderful stay in a lovely serene location in Port Douglas.
Pros:

We loved everything about this stay. The staff were exceptionally welcoming & the apartment was spacious, really well appointed and in a lovely quiet location. It felt very private and the owners had thought of every detail. The bed was very comfortable and afforded us the best sleeps of our trip.
We were able to walk easily from the site to the town, beaches and marina. Free parking and a second quiet pool were lovely additions. It was also incredibly clean. Superb - Thankyou!

Cons:

Nothing
