A reasonably priced stay in a comfortable and handy location.
Pros:

Bay villas are modern apartments in a handy location about a 10 minute walk from the centre of Port Douglas. The beds were comfortable and it was nice to be able to open the balcony door and lock the flyscreen fr air overnight rather than have to use the air conditioning.

Cons:

A little closer to town would have been nice but it was probably good for us to walk a little mre than we might normally have done. If it was hotter we might have fond the walk overous.

Pros:

Very nice rooms with clean, open, layout, equipped with equipment like a small clothes rack which came in handy for drying swimwear.

Pool was nice, but very rough. Be aware of stubbing toes or hands.

Staff were lovely, and overall, facilities were very secure, quiet, and comfortable.

Would stay again 🙂

Cons:

Pool surface was very rough, and can easily cause injuries.

Shower pressure was also soft with not much pressure.
