Family-friendly vacation rentals in Port Douglas

Absolutely loved our 10 days at ‘Frangipani House’. We’ve stayed at many Airbnb’s & this one beats them all. Think absolute beachfront, amazing ocean views, private, coconut palms, gorgeous decor, heated pool, tropical garden, proximity to both world heritage listed Daintree rainforest & fabulous restaurants in Port Douglas.

Lovely stay at hibiscus resort. Great location for a holiday as it is very close to shops, restaurants and activities. Peter was very responsive as well.

Kay was very helpful - she picked us up from the airport and took time to show us around the apartment. The apartment was very comfortable and spotlessly clean. The location is excellent, handy for everything you need. There is a tour desk downstairs where you can book your activities. Overall, highly recommended.

Thank you for an unforgettable stay, Jillian! Seascapes was such a peaceful place to be and my partner and I felt relaxed as soon as we arrived. I really appreciated all the little touches of home that you have made throughout the house. I had the best sleep of my life with the fresh air and soothing sounds of the rainforest, and it was just lovely to feel so isolated yet a short drive from some great attractions in the Daintree. Also, I need to buy myself a hammock now! I could have stayed in that hammock on the verandah with the ocean view for days on end haha. Thank you again for providing a welcome escape to nature.

Great owners. Very accommodating. The fridge was stocked with items such as milk and bread. A lovely place!

Second time staying at Reef Retreat. Lovely well maintained resort with great value for money. Pool and spa very clean - leaves well kept under control. Nice book library in laundry and friendly service.

Beautiful apartment and surroundings. Within walking distance to restaurants and beach. Owners and admin were very responsive to questions. Beds were so comfortable and everything was very clean. Appreciated the extra towels. Internet was a bit hit and miss and no shampoo in the bathrooms (lots of conditioner though) which may have just been an oversight. We would definitely stay again. Thank you Diane.

Gorgeous home in a stunning location! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Daintree Magic, it’s hard not to love it there. It was such a welcoming environment to come in to and had everything you needed for an off grid stay. Kate’s instructions were super clear and little touches in the fridge were very welcome. We all loved cooling off in the plunge pool, enjoying the view and listening to all the different sounds of the rainforest. Thank you Kate, you have a wonderful home that we wouldn’t hesitate to revisit should we be this way again ☺️

Great central location, exactly as described. Fab was a great host who was always quick to respond.

Tash & Giovanni were great hosts, we werer a couple and had plenty of space, everything was clean and tidy and the location is probably one of the best in Port Douglas I think. well done team we'll be back!

While it is said a picture tells a thousand words sometimes when it comes to photos of Airbnb stays that isn’t always the case. In the case of Mali Mali the photos are absolutely what we discovered a beautiful, home where the outside and the inside blended perfectly and the views took our breath away. A perfecto peaceful, gorgeous place to rest, play and enjoy a break from the hustle and bustle. It was comfortable, well stocked and close enough to shops, restaurants and adventure while being far enough away that peace and beauty surrounded us. I will miss the night sounds of the frogs, geckos and wind, the beautiful sunrises and the breathtaking sunsets and laughing in the pool with family. Thank you Wendy for making our stay easy and opening this beautiful home to us.

This apartment is perfect for a stay in Port Douglas. It has everything you need and more, and it was perfectly clean and tidy. The garden was very relaxing, and we ate outside every day. If I could, I would give it 10 stars!

Thank you Mark and Linda. This airbnb was homely and just right and affordable for my family's short stay in Cairns.

Pamela was a really generous, welcoming and flexible host. The surrounding garden and area was was beautiful. The space is off grid, very clean and modest. Thanks for having us!

Great location to the main strip in palm cove while maintaining privacy just a short walk away. Easy location to get picked up for excursions and using public transportation. Local restaurants were great and the Palm Cove New Years events were spectacular!

We were very happy with the location and privacy of the house. It was very well equipped with everything we needed. Great view and loved going to sleep with the sound of the ocean and the birds. Close to the airport and Cairns. Thank you for the opportunity to stay at your place . I would definitely recommend your beach house to my friends and family.

We had a very enjoyable stay here, the house is comfortable and well equipped. The house is located about a 5 minute walk from the Four Mile Beach, which we ventured to every day! Kerry is an excellent host, very helpful and friendly. We would stay here again.

We had a great time at Amanda’s place. Quiet location, 5 min drive into town and a great communal pool just outside the back of the property.

Our family of 4 had a wonderful stay! The apartment was huge and had everything we needed for our stay. The rooms were spacious and the pool and restaurant were only a very small walk. The kids absolutely loved the large bathroom spa as well as the heated spa on the roof top. The hosts were very responsive to messages and check in was very simple. The apartment was clean and the beds were very comfortable. We will certainly be back!

We had an absolutely fantastic week away at The Bahama house in Port Douglas. The house is stunning and thoughtfully laid out and decorated. It is ideal for families and friends. We relaxed by the pool, visited the sites including four mile beach and spent time at the Great Barrier Reef. We are so grateful to have stayed here and would love to visit in the future again!

The location is excellent. Very quiet and close to the beach. But if you often go to the restaurants, cafe or shops on the central street , you will walk about 1,4 km one way. It is better to have a car or may be sometimes to use bicycle.

Great location, beautiful house!

Jade Ridge was the perfect spot to say for my FNQ exploring holiday. The unit was exactly as advertised, clean and has everything you would need for a holiday. I hope to come back another time.

Melissa’s place was everything it said it was! Your own private pool, beautiful views & modern bathrooms. A full size fridge, most appliances & a BBQ to make it feel very homely. We had the place to ourselves & had a nice & relaxing stay. Melissa was lovely, providing lots of information & went above and beyond to make it stress free. Any time we needed to ask a question she was more than helpful & kind. Would thoroughly recommend Melissa’s place to anyone who manages to secure a booking!
