Definitely our go to place in PD having stayed there many times over the years. The property is brilliantly located opposite parkland and very close to all the Port Douglas has to offer. Approximately 10 minute walk to the beach and around the same to the marina and even less to the main shopping strip in Macrossan St. A great spot.

We had a lovely stay at the Retreat which is a beautiful location just down from the main street and 2 blocks to beach. Having a kitchenette in the room gave us options for all meals and plenty of space. The pool area is spacious and beautiful offering dining options too as there is also two grills. Clean and tidy and the lovely couple who run it will help you with questions bookings etc.

'It was fairly quiet. The studio apartments mean that there are no families with noisy children in the pool. We found the kitchen area very small and hard to use but the bathroom was nice and big. An easy walk to the beach makes it ideal.
