The Reef Retreat

A gem of a hotel located just back from the front at the delightful Palm Cove. The facility has everything you need as either a base to explore the local eateries or to self cater. Everything is there including hairdryers, ironing facilities and the smart tv will allow you to log in and continue watching your favourite Netflix series. Friendly and helpful staff. Palm Cove is delightful with its golden sand, safe swimming area and beach walks (award winning beach). You can’t go wrong either in Palm Cove or specifically at The Reef Retreat.

Well appointed appartments- very comfortable, central to everything. Will definitely return!

My partner and I stayed 2 nights in a superior spa suite which was very fresh, clean and spacious and the spa and kitchen were well provided. It had a lovely view overlooking the pretty heated swimming pool and we felt like we were nestled in a tranquil rainforest with many beautiful Melaleuca trees growing right next to the outdoor kitchen/living area. I highly recommend this resort - with the beach only a few steps away and also close to the many nearby restaurants it has everything you could wish for in a romantic getaway. The hosts, Jim and Joanne are welcoming, very knowledgeable of the area and helpful with local information.

Very clean and well run. Helpful staff, great location with everything you need. Would stay again and recommend to others 5*

Awesome place to relax and unwind

This property and its sheltered garden courtyard was indeed a ‘retreat’ from the wind warning. We enjoyed our stay.

Amazing property, loved being there. It's very beautiful & comfortable. Great pool & Spa. Easy walking. Rooms are well maintained & comfortable. I will definitely be back.

It was in a great location, very easy walk to beach and shops. Great size rooms, very clean

We visited the reef retreat in palm cove for the 5th time…..once again, it was fabulous. So relaxing, the weather was terrific and we had lots of opportunities to read, swim and enjoy ourselves. We would never go anywhere else… the reef retreat is our go to place. Thank you Jim and Joanne.
