The Cottage is Awesome
We had an amazing 4-night stay at the Cottage. Perfect location close to shops and restaurants, and we absolutely loved the private pool. I must mention the bed - it was so comfortable I could’ve stayed in it all day!!! It was nice and soft and you can’t feel you partner’s movements. I find it’s rare to get such a comfy bed in holiday accommodation and sleep quality is so important me, so I have to point this out!
Fresh fruit was provided which was lovely. A/C was perfect, good supply of towels and also kitchen amenities and supplies.
Great communication with the owners.
Just such a lovely experience, we can’t wait to come back!

The cottage is perfect for a couple. It's a gorgeous little building, well located and well appointed. The pool/jacuzzi area is great for lounging around, the views from the balcony are beautiful and there's a BBQ by the pool and a decent little kitchen if you want to eat in. There are two air conditioners for those of us who're coming from colder climes, a washing machine and a dryer. The place was spotless when we arrived. We stayed for a week and loved every minute of it.

Extremely close to the beach, great dinning spots and shopping, it’s a beautiful cottage we felt at home as soon as we walked in the door.
There was a beautiful fruit platter and the fridge was also full of cold beverages, l would throughly recommend to anyone wanting a more personalised accomodation experience !!

We had a wonderful stay in the Lodge. We especially enjoyed lounging around in the pool, and we got joy out of cooking in the kitchen and around the grill. Fabulous property, quiet and peaceful yet right next to the main street of Port Douglas, so you're just steps from awesome restaurants, bars, and stores. No need for a car! Thanks, guys, for a great time.

The Cottage was a beautiful place to stay. Private and quaint. Having your own pool is a bonus. The Cottage was in a great position - easy walk to great dining and shops.

Excellent accommodation with friendly and helpful owners/managers.
Unique old fashion style lodge with lots of charm !
Lots of space, a swimming pool, perfect location, and Graeme is very kind. We even had chocolate for Easter in the fridge and a large plate with fruits !
Love love it !!
We loved our stay at The Cottage, perfectly located just off the main street. It was private and peaceful, with only the noisy birds interrupting the quiet. We loved having our own private pool and the choice of two decks to lounge on. Everything you needed was on hand, including sunblock and a beach chair. The complimentary champagne and beer on arrival was much appreciated. Just a couple of things would have improved our stay; a bigger bed (the queen bed on castors was too small & rolled around the floor a bit) and an information sheet would have been helpful (wifi password, where to put rubbish, whether the room gets refreshed half way through a longer stay - ours didn't & we were there for a week). These are just minor things & we wouldn't hesitate to stay here again. It was our home away from home and we had a wonderful week.
I stayed in the lodge and it was perfect for a stay in Port Douglas, quiet location yet very close to the main street and beach. Very well appointed and very clean and comfortable with your own plunge pool. I would stay here again for sure.
This lovely, quietly located lodge is not a hotel. It's a self catering, single level Queensland house. It's brilliantly located near to the shops (about a 2min walk to Macrossan Street) and close to Four Mile Beach (5mins walk). There is parking and well appointed amenities.
The only thing I would improve would be the wifi connectivity - better in some parts of the lodge than others.
