Huge heated pool , minutes walk to the beach

LienkieRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
We had a lovely family holiday in Port Douglas! The house is perfect for more than one family - We had the kids stay in the one part of the house with the grandparents on the other side which worked really well. We loved the courtyard in the middle and beautiful big kitchen! Bianca was always available and responsive and she even made a plan to come and assist with some windows we struggled to open. There were also more than enough bath and pool towels which were a big bonus! All in all - a lovely stay and added to our list if we visit Port Douglas again!

Tranquility by the Lake - Luxury Home Port Douglas

ChanelleRating, 5 stars4 weeks ago
The property is exactly as pictured, great house to suit for a large family. The indoor outdoor flow is fantastic for alfresco dining whilst enjoying the large pool. There are so many surrounding restaurants and attractions that are within walking distance which makes it more enjoyable if you don’t want to drive. All the finishing touches ensure you can enjoy a nice meal at home as the kitchen is very well equipped with such ample space. Would highly recommended this house to anyone!

Port Douglas Beach House Retreat

VanessaRating, 5 stars5 months ago
We had an amazing stay at Tanya’s beautiful 4-bedroom home in Port Douglas! The house was spacious, perfect for our family of four (including two teenagers), with plenty of room for everyone to relax. Having two lounge areas was a bonus, and the kitchen was great—it had everything we needed to cook our own meals after long days out. The pool was a highlight! It was exactly like the photos—sparkling clean and so inviting. Tanya gave us some excellent recommendations for restaurants and local attractions, which we found really helpful. One of our favourite tips was to take a morning walk along the stunning 4 Mile Beach, just a short stroll down the street. The location was ideal, situated on a quiet street but only a 5-minute drive to town. We had a rental car, so it was easy to come and go, and the peaceful surroundings made it feel like a retreat. We recommend it to anyone looking for a spacious, well-equipped home with a great pool in a quiet, convenient location. Thank you, Tanya.

Makilaki Ulysses Machans Beach Cairns

SaraRating, 5 stars2 days ago
Absolutely beautiful place to stay. Very quiet and very private. And we loved the beds! They were very comfortable after a long day of shopping. The pool area was beautiful. It was far too cold (for us) to swim, but we would definitely go back in summer just to hang out by the pool. Very happy. And he has a beautiful doggo if anybody needs to get a puppy fix🥰

We had a fantastic stay at Rob’s property! The house was peaceful, spotlessly clean, and had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing visit. Its location is perfect—just a short walk to the beach and shops, making it incredibly convenient. The hosts were wonderful and always responsive, promptly answering all our questions. Although we encountered a couple of minor issues during our stay, they were resolved quickly and efficiently, which we really appreciated. Overall, this property provided the perfect getaway, and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to others. Thank you for a great experience!

Rainforest Sunsets by Tiny Away

DameonRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
We booked this spot for a quick getaway to celebrate my wife's birthday. We were treated to million dollar views and a spectacular night sky. The host also offered a 5 am yoga session that we signed up for. It was one of the best yoga trainings I've ever had. The house had everything we needed for a short stay. The host gave us beautiful fresh cut flowers from their gardens that we would have taken with us, but we had a full schedule that day. We loved it!

Oak Beach Dreaming Holiday Retreat

PeterRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Our stay was just perfect. Barbara was a very considerate, thoughtful and responsive host. Everything from check-in to amenities and local attractions was well articulated. The house is very private and secluded (in a small enclave of Oak Beach) with the main house not too close, about 20 metres away with screening etc. The house was just magic per the photos, the living areas are so large and open. The beautiful beach is only a few minutes walk away and the drive into Port Douglas is about 15 minutes north, although if you head south to Cairns there are currently many roadworks on the way with short wait times due to one lane only. We spent most of our time in Port Douglas and above. There are also some local walks to waterfalls available. We only used the pool once, it was large and nice (it is shaded by the tall forest this time of year), note the pool is closer to the main house than it is to the AIRBNB house, but this is not an issue in anyway. Our many thanks to Barbara.

Spacious family home close to beach

MichelleRating, 5 stars5 months ago
Peters house was amazing. Communication from start to finish was excellent with really quick responses to questions we had prior to our visit. There was so much space in the house and plenty of bathrooms for us all. There was everything we needed in the house to make our stay enjoyable, it was in a quiet neighbourhood and we enjoyed sitting listening to the sounds of the wildlife and watching the birds pass over the pool. Stand out has to be the amazing pool area where we spent hours cooling off after a hard days exploring. We would love to visit again. Thank you Peter.

Neverland—The Stoney Creek Treehouse

SophiaRating, 5 stars4 months ago
This treehouse is one of the most beautiful places I've stayed. The entire house is surrounded by nature, the balcony is where we spent most of our time when we weren't touring, we loved staying here. Even though we came for holidays in the rainy season, it didn't stop us from doing what we came to do. We accomplished our entire itinerary which consisted of; Crystal Cascades, Barron Gorge, Skyrail, The Aistralian Armour & Artillery Museum, Port Douglas , Mossman town, Mossman Gorge, The Daintree Rainforest and enjoyed many surrounding restaurants. We had to buy new suitcases to fit all our souvenirs in haha. It was such an amazing week, and we are so grateful The Boutique Collection accommodated our stay. I am willing to personally recommend this Airbnb to my family & friends in future🥰 From the bottom of our hearts, Thank You💐

beautiful modern property. The beds were super comfy, air cons cold and bathrooms modern with all the amenities and special touches. pantry had most little things needed for a holiday and the pod coffee was a great bonus. Huge frig to hold whatever we had. the location for us was perfect for day trips north and to Barron Falls. Also 5min from CBD, clubs etc. a great staging place for our needs. IMO anyone booking Eva's place will be more than happy. The noise albeit in background with doors, windows open is not obtrusive with closed really non existent.
