Guest Reviews
- Kate (7/5): -
- Yann (9/5): Top ! - Superbe logement, même si la clim du salon ne marchait pas très bien. Les lits sont très bien, on est à moins d'1km du centre de Port Douglas. La piscine est top. Il n'y avait quasiment personne en ce mois de décembre. Linge de bain fourni. Le digicode pour rentrer dans le logement, pas de stress pour les clefs ou le badge ! Un petit flacon de shampooing et de gel douche par personne pour 4 nuits, c'est un peu juste.
Un peu de mal à comprendre où se garer et où se trouvait l'appartement.
- Luke (10/5): -
- Sharyn (9/5): Pleasant location and staff. We had a freshly upgraded room so room was pretty fresh. - Good location and room size was great for our needs. Walking upstairs to third level with luggage. Otherwise ok for us but not so good for 80yo Dad.
- Sue (9/5): Loved this place. - This is a lovely first floor apartment, beautifully decorated and comfortable, nestled into lush garden. The location is brilliant, an easy 10-15 minute walk to the Main Street. There is a very nice pool with lounge chairs and BBQ area. Air-con, Wi-Fi and everything you could need in the kitchen as well as easy parking on site for the hire car. I needed help with the entry code and the communication with the owner per phone was excellent. The digital entry lock was a little bit tricky for me, until I got the touch. Apart from this minor issue we were all really happy with the place, so much so that we would definitely book again.
- Jessica (10/5): - Wonderful
- Ian (7/5): Adequate value for money - Clean & friendly
Plenty of washing liquids & powder for washing machine Climbing 3 flights of stairs
Lack of coffee plunger
No table mats or table cloth
- Barry (9/5): - Well managed. Comfortable. Well supplied. Excellent response from the manager for a problem. Excellent bbq facilities by the pool. 2 keys. Provide a couple of clothes hooks in the bathroom. Install exhaust fans to bathrooms.
- Naomi (8/5): Very comfortable with everything you need - Fabulous reception staff It was all good
- Anita (8/5): Great family stay - BBQ area was well stocked and the pool is large & nice. Seating is great and a relaxed place to chill 😎
- Danielle (6/5): - Pros:
Good size room and bathroom
Good location
Pool area nice
Cons:
Walls are paper thin - felt like we had balcony door open as you can hear everything on the street
Staff at reception were a bit clueless
Was freezing in room with air con on and hot without it on. Unable to adjust temp to suit
Would we stay again? No - sleep is a priority and too much noise from street
- Grace (10/5): Affordable apartments with everything you need and close to main shopping area - Close to town
Great pool
Spacious rooms
- Jacqueline (3/5): Rude reception staff, made us feel extremely unwelcome. - The reception staff were incredibly rude and unhelpful. We book for 7 people (3 bedrooms and a trundle bed) and when we get there the trundle wasn’t set up, we came after hours so I went down in the morning and the owner was so rude and unkind about it. Wanted to charge me an extra $45 per night for additional sheets.
- Dykzeul (8/5): -
- Greg (7/5): There are so many places to stay I must certainly wouldn’t go back to the apartment again. It wasn’t great value for mon - Good location and good sized unit The apparent was dirty it had just had a quick. The fridge , dishwasher were really dirty. There was crumbs under the furniture etc The kitchen bin was filthy
- Keith (9/5): Would return to stay another time - Good location, easy walk to town and beach. Good sized pool and nice bbq area
- Vicki (7/5): Port Douglas was a lovely place to spend a few days. - The location was great, only a 15 minute walk to the main street. On arrival our room was not very clean and we had to get someone to come in and do it again and did some ourselves.
The appliances could do with an update, microwave and dishwasher rusty on the front. The timer on the dryer didn't work so had to hang around to make sure it was stopped.
The washing machine went off balance so many times we lost count.
The beds were very firm.
- Grant (10/5): - Very nice management, place was clean, quiet and felt like home within minutes
Kitchen was well stocked with utensils and it had stove top and inverter oven so I could cook my own meals if I wanted
Pool is really big and there are two big bbqs poolside if needed.
I’ll definitely be coming back
- Mark (10/5): Excellent - Great apartment with everything we needed. Great location, walking distance to the main high street.
- Shireen (6/5): Good value 3* near centre of Port Douglas - Location was great - just a few blocks to the beach, centre of town and cafe strip. Easy to walk everywhere inc the marina.
Rooms were clean though dated and in need of a refresh.
Pool was a good size though in the afternoons there can be a bit of a jam for space on the lounges.
Nice little laundry are in the apartment and a drying rack was included for bathers to dry on the patio. Stairs up two floors - no lifts. Request ground floor if you have large bags / bad knees.
Little maintenance issues - microwave didn't work, lights needing repairs or cleaning, shower mould.
- Dianne (9/5): Extremely good - would book again. - Quiet at night. Good distance from town. Pool was wonderful. 2nd room should have been made up as another queen , not 2 singles.
Not enough toilet paper spares.
- Shirley (8/5): - The property is close to most Main Street, Marina, and Beach. Has a big swimming pool and good Barbeque area.
- Htein Linn (10/5): - Spacious unit with all the amenities. Nice swimming pool and spa pool. BBQ facilities besides the pool.
- Cameron (8/5): -

- Robert (8/5): - Location

Property centrally located
- Andrea (8/5): Very good -

- Neville (9/5): Thank you. We've had a great time with our entire family and would come again. - Pool and spa great for family We had a ball. Lovely overall. No smoking on site preferred.

- Jen (10/5): Great value for money comfy and lovely pool - Comfortable and friendly management
Lovely pool
Great location Nothing -
- Virginia (10/5): We really enjoyed our stay, very comfortable and well located. Loved the balcony surrounded by palms - It was a little confusing when we arrived as we went to the main reception at the front of the resort. We didn't realise that the car parking mentioned in the instructions was behind the first building and reception at the front of the resort. It was half way down Beryl Street. Once we spoke to a staff member of the resort who directed us to the other car park, we found the apartment easily. Digital keypad for entry at front door was very convenient. No keys required.
- Jen (10/5): Relaxing and comfortable - Value for money - comfortable beds - great swimming pool - lovely management Nothing
- Tracey (9/5): Fantastic apartments in a great location with superb pool area and friendly, welcoming hosts. - Location, units and pool facilities were fantastic. Staff were super friendly and more than accommodating, as they went out of their way to help us out on arrival and upon leaving. Units were great, although the cleaning could have been more thorough on arrival. There was rubbish still in the bins and the base of the bath wasn't all that clean.

- Jorge (3/5): Poor -
- Lisa (8/5): Very good -
- Gangadhar (8/5): Pleasant and comfy stay - I like the rooms Our rooms were in different blocks
- Sarah (10/5): - Where to start – there are so many excellent elements to this apartment. Firstly, it is in a great location, able to walk to the beach and to the shops and restaurants. We had a hire car but did not use it in town at all as we love to walk everywhere. Secondly, the managers are so friendly, helpful and accommodating which made our weeklong stay very pleasant. We had a three bedroom renovated apartment for our family of two adults and three teenage boys. It was spacious, clean and comfortable. The beds were great, we had a full-size fridge & appliance which were great for self catering, a washing machine and lots of room for everyone to relax. We had undercover parking on site which was great to be able to park in shade on hot days. Our apartment had a lovely outdoor area that was private and secure. The apartment worked brilliantly and was used non-stop during the day, we relied on fans at night (our preference) and stayed cool. And then we come to the pool – it was a highlight of our stay! Large, clean, with lovely tropical plants around it, it was such a great place to cool off on a hot day and even to have a swim after dinner as it is open until 930pm. The spa was slightly warmer and lovely to sit in when the bubbles were running. Highly recommend Central for an affordable, comfortable apartment close to everything that you need. We would definitely stay again.

- Wendy (9/5): Superb -
- Rob (8/5): Very good -
- Jen (9/5): Fun, spacious, convenient. - Spacious. Bed configuration we requested was not correct, however it didn’t really impact our stay.
- Simon (9/5): Superb - spacious apartments and nice pool area.
- Nick (9/5): Superb - Location was excellent, only a short walk to town and far enough away to be away from any noise. We were lucky enough to have the pool view unit which was on the ground level overlooking the pool, which was fantastic.
We used the BBQ one night, which was great not to have to eat out.

- Kate (7/5): Good -
- Gerald (8/5): Very good - Fantastic location, friendly and helpful staff
- Natalie (10/5): We can't wait to come back and stay here again! - We loved staying here. The apartment was so clean and fresh. It had everything we needed and more. The furniture was really lovely and there were so many finishing touches that made it an enjoyable stay. The pool was beautiful and the location to everything was perfect. Easily walk or drive to restaurants and the beach, and really easy to get out for day trips. The staff were friendly and helpful. It was really quiet overnight. We cannot wait to come back!
- Caroline (9/5): Superb -
- Laura (8/5): Very comfortable. - Space. Proximity to everything. Pool. Nothing
- Therese (7/5): Lovely, relaxing stay - Location was great!
Terrific staff Property is a little dated
- Terry (6/5): Pleasant - Room sizes, facilities, pool, accessibility. location. Cleanliness, smell, poor attitude of managers.
- Jamie (10/5): Great central location. - Close to the main part of town without being right in the center. Quiet clean rooms.
- Wayne (8/5): Very good -
- Maryann (8/5): Most enjoyable - a lovely relaxing stay. - Quiet, secluded, but did have good proximity to the town. Rooms were a bit tired.
- Annice (5/5): Passable - Good pool. We had a 3 bedroom apartment that was stuffy. The fans in the living area would not work on the appropriate speed settings, there was no functioning window in the 2nd bedroom, and the exhaust fan in the internalised bathroom wasn’t working. The apartment was superficially clean, however, the dirty underpants found under the curtains in the 2nd bedroom were consistent with the lack of the rigorous approach required. 4 days later, I have yet to hear from the on-site manager as promised. So, overall, disappointing.
- Francie (7/5): Good -
- Lester (9/5): Close to restaurants, quite and clean - Friendly staff - close to Muddy’s for a great morning coffee after walk along boardwalk
- Jennifer (10/5): Exceptional - Had everything we needed, was clean and tidy. Was in a great central location.
- Andrea (8/5): Nice place in the heart of Port Douglas. Good sized pool that includes a hot SPA and a large bbq. 10 minutes walk to the - Nice place in the heart of Port Douglas. Good sized pool that includes a hot SPA and a large bbq. 10 minutes walk to the centre, 5 to Four Mile beach.
We stayed in a double bedroom with SPA. Apartment was really spacious and with all the facilities that you might need. Bathrooms are large as well and the balcony is quite nice. Cleaning was ok but not perfect, especially the floors. Natural light was really missing as the apartment, at least our at ground floor, was quite dark. Needed to turn on the lights almost the whole day.
- Heidi (10/5): Exceptional -
- Carol (9/5): It was a lovely break very relaxing - The heated pool was fantastic. Great barbecue area. The pool was a good size and plenty of chairs and umbrellas around the pool Our apartment was lovely the only negative is beds could have been a bit more comfortable
- John (8/5): Comfortable, clean, quite, reasonably priced, great location. - Proximity to Port Douglas
Pool And warm spa
Cleanliness
quietness Only having 50% roll of toilet paper, with no spare, in second toilet (4 adults in unit)
No salt / pepper in room
Having to pay 50cents for extra roll of toilet paper
- Anson (7/5): Very enjoyable and met our needs as a family - Great pool and BBQ area. Location excellent. Room set-up good Could have been a bit cleaner
- Peter (8/5): - The apartment was spacious and weel furnished and equipped. Really nice pool area with nice al fresco bbq.
- Raneen (7/5): Great place to stay and would definitely stay there again next visit! - Great location, walking distance to all facilities. Lovely, helpful and very accomodating managers.The apartment was very spacious with a great outlook over the pool.Nice pool and good amount of Sun loungers around it. Toilet seat wouldn’t stay up for males.
The water for the spa bath was only just warm as there wasn’t enough hot water to fill it.
- Michael (6/5): Just ok - Weather Comfort with bedding and lounge
- Emma (8/5): - Really friendly and knowledgeable owners with plenty of time for a chat to recommend local gems.
Apartment was well stocked with utensils/pans/dinnerware.
Living area spacious and comfortable for down time and the bed was very comfortable.
- John (8/5): - Spacious apartment, no issue with facilities. One important negative though, but it is easily corrected. The hotel told us, both in writing and verbally, that the Captain Cook Highway was shut most of the night. This caused us a lot of stress as we arrived late. It is not true.
- Deborah (6/5): Enjoyed our stay, was comfortable and convenient and priced accordingly, however could definitely be better if it was re - Good location, managers very friendly and helpful. Was well .equipped Was very tired, really needs a complete refurbishment/freshen up, areas of our room could do with a really good clean. Window sills needed vacuuming to remove dead bugs and dust, lingering odour in the apartment. Managers were very helpful. Provided us with candle and room freshener to deodorise.
- Elaine (10/5): Exceptional -
- Petra (10/5): Exceptional -
- Petra (9/5): Superb -
- Simonne (9/5): Spacious apartment close to town - Location was great, just a short walk to Macrossan Street. Apartment was spacious and clean. Nice inclusion of a dishwasher & coffee plunger! Staff were friendly & helpful. Pillows were too soft (for us)
- Alan (8/5): Despite the stairs it was a good stay - Close to all amenities sstsot Stairs to the second floor made a bit difficult to negotiate
- Brian (10/5): - A great location to walk to all the local shops, bars , restaurants , beaches , marina etc , big apartments and pool, friendly helpful staff and pick up point for tours , facilities were all good
- Arlene (8/5): - The best thing about this apartment is its great location. Our family could walk everywhere we wanted to in Port Douglas - the Main Street was just 10 minutes away. The place itself is a little worn, but it is clean. They provide enough laundry detergent to do a couple of loads of laundry. They also provided beach towels which we appreciated. The kitchen had the basics to cook meals. Overall, I’d recommend this place due to the location and the extra space.
- Kel_d77 (8/5): Great location! Lovely stay. - The welcome was great when we got there, and the offer of help over our stay was always appreciated. The location is fantastic to get into town. We will certainly consider staying again if we return for another visit.
- Chris (10/5): Great accomodation and highly recommended - Very modern spacious rooms. Beautiful pool setting and helpful staff. Close to Macrossan Street and beach N/A
- Maureen (8/5): Very good - Suited our needs for a couple of nights. Walking distance of town. Grab rail by the spa bath because the shower was over the bath, not separate though the second bathroom had a walk-in shower. Very noisy because there were so many other tenants, especially Saturday night. Dark unit on the ground floor.
