"This is a really nice stay. Right on the street with all of the shops and walkable to both the beach and the marina. But, some things that may be helpful for other guests to know: reception hours are VERY limited, though reception staff are very helpful. This will impact you if you need help booking a shuttle or locking up luggage or getting change or soap for laundry. They are SUPER helpful when available, but hours are extrememly limited. No hot tub on site, the jacquizi in the unit is a bath tub. (it's a bit odd - you have to walk through the bathroom to get to the porch. The jacquizi is not on the porch, just overlooks the porch.) Also, there is not daily service, so if you need soap or anything refilled before the service, too bad so sad. The pool is much smaller than it looks in the photos. Hotpot and pop-up toaster, but no microwave. But location can't be beat."
"Once happy hour finished at six the pool bar closed, seemed odd not to stay open to allow people to have another drink - you’d done a great job luring everyone down then the vibe just stopped. Good for thought."
Shantara Resort Port Douglas - Adults Only Retreat
10/10 Excellent
"The rooms are clean and spacious. Being an adults only resort, it is very quiet and relaxing. The location is excellent and very close to everything. We loved our stay and will be back!"
"We have stayed at this property before, the last time 10 years ago & sadly not much has changed in that time - the rooms are now quite outdated & need a refurb, the carpets are quite dusty & the tiles dirty. We selected the 1 bedroom swim-up apartment based on the promise that the pools were heated. Sadly they were not, they were absolutely freezing & when I raised it on day 1 with the manager he spun an excuse & said he would get it looked at. After 8 days & many more asks we gave up! Very disappointing when travelling as a family & selecting a specific pool room that we paid more for which basically can’t be used. Our child lasted 5 mins max each swim. The location of the mantra is great but sadly this will be our last visit to this resort which is in need of some TLC. Definitely better places to stay in town for similar prices & basics like heated pools & clean/ modern apartments."
"loved staying at the Sheraton - the hotel is stunning and all the staff were so lovely. Best hotel in Port Douglas. Loved the wild life show and the daintree bar 💕"
"We had a fantastic time at Pebbles. It's just beautiful. We we're lucky enough to also have our own private pool and barbie area!
Highly recommend it, very central to Port Douglas main street, the beach and cafes/restaurants.
The staff were very friendly and helpful."
