Location perfect, pool amazing, surroundings basically in the rainforest, rooms spacious. Was great.
Pros:

Pool was amazing, perfect for kids.
Staff heated the pool upon request during colder days.
Location was amazing, so close to everything.
Room was very spacious.

Cons:

We ordered a cot and it didn't come with a mattress.
Quite disappointing that they explained that it doesn't come with one and in 8y they have never been asked for a mattress.
Kids under 1yo cannot use blankets simply stuffed underneath a fitted sheet, a SIDS approved breathable mattress should be supplied when you're being charged for the cot.

Good stay
Pros:

Very spacious apartment. Gardens and facilities were great. Across the road from the Palm Cove Tavern and short walk to supermarket and beach.

Cons:

Apartment was clean but could do with a deep clean and some maintenance. There was an ice cream wrapper under one of the beds and pop corn in between the cushions on the couch from previous occupants. Two rooms had picture frames covering holes in plasterboard on the walls. A/C in bedroom 2 wouldn't work on cool setting.

Vorsicht wenn man nur zu zweit bucht
Pros:

Das Apt ist gut ausgestattet. Chris ist ein Top Gästebetreuer

Cons:

Dass wenn man nur als 2 Personen bucht, mehr als die Hälfte vom Apt abgeschlossen wird, ist nicht korrekt. Das Apt wird mit 140 Quadratmeter verkauft, nutzen kann man nicht mal die Hälfte

Need a great holiday in the Far North?
Pros:

Our first 3/4 years in our travels to the far north were to Port Douglas.
However for the past 15 years or so we have chosen to stay in Palm Cove and at Oasis apartments.
From our initial stay around 2009 we were struck by the magnificent tropical garden surroundings, something quite unique. The 36 apartments , across 3 levels, are clustered in 3 blocks surrounding a central roundabout and an adjoining tennis court. There is a very large swimming pool, a sizeable toddlers pool and an elevated spa. Pool and spa are regularly serviced and very clean.
The pool area has two BBQs, numerous dining tables with the pool surrounds offering new relaxing lounge furniture including umbrellas.
The apartments are very large with a like floor plan but individually furnished and and presented by their respective owners reflecting either 4 or 5 star appeal. Servicing (sheets, towels etc) is generally sound and access to and responsiveness from the Managers in relation to presenting problems is excellent.
Since their commencement 7/8 years ago as the new Managers, Adrian and Elmira have overseen the resort being elevated to a new level in respect to its initial overall presentation, cleanliness, service and their general willingness to address holidayers’ needs to a very high level is witnessed daily.
A great place to stay and enjoy!!!!

Nice apartment close to everything, few issues but overall was ok.
Pros:

Property is close to most of the cafes and restaurants in Palm Cove, 4 minute walk down a small hill to the beach. Apartment we had was 3 bedroom, pretty spacious, decent sized balconies and had most things you could have needed in the kitchen.

Cons:

There was a few issues during our stay, first issue was when my partner arrived, the reception had closed up, this was 18:10pm, key was left with a note which wasn’t the end of the world. However when we checked in, the baby cot we had ordered was fit for the scrap heap. It had no mattress and the sides didn’t lock so it was unsafe to use. We called the out of office number and sent messages via Booking.com which were ignored until the following day. We had no option but to allow our 10 week old sleep in the bed on the first night which meant parents didn’t sleep. Not ideal and pretty atrocious situation to be put in. The next day they did arrange a cot from a 3rd party company which was fine but my feedback would be if you offer an infant cot, make sure it’s safe and works.
