We were on the roadside-- but still very quiet. Parking off street available but we parked on the road as it was closer to our unit. Loved the indoor/ outdoor living. Coffee on room available. 5 minute walk to the beach, cafes and restaurants. Very safe town and very friendly. We used the pool and hottub daily. Jim waa very pleasant and helped us plan our day trip up to Daintree and the young fellow that works there suggested the croc tour-- which was AMAZING!! Bed was made up 1x (we were there 5 nights) which was fine, new towels were given 2x during our stay. We also asked for new pool towels which we recieved at the front desk and also asked for an extra umbrella--just a 'little' rain fell! Loved Palm Cove and thanks expedia for the $35 gift cert. to one of the restaurants.

A lovely place to stay with beautiful surroundings. However, the service was somewhat limited — amenities such as tea, coffee, soap, and shampoo were not replenished regularly and had to be requested. Aside from that, it’s a wonderful spot for a stay

The staff were very friendly. The rooms were lovely and clean. The sound of nothing but nature throughout the night was awesom and just a 30 second walk to the esplanade where you will find something delicious to eat.

This property is very outdated. It is not clean. The doors and windows had cracks for critters to get in. There is no housekeeping services to clean the room after each night.Small little details, like the garbage can you had to touch to open, It definitely took away from Experience I was hoping for. In addition when I went to check in during normal office hours, the office manager came out and talk to me, but he referred me to the instructions as if I were a late check-in and I had to read how to get to my room. It was a little awkward. Also, when I had my early check out, I had to pick up the phone to call him to check out and it was very strange to me. I felt like I was bothering him. The lampshade had cobwebs. The shower was inside a jacuzzi tub, very odd. The windowsills were filthy. You can hear your neighbors. The pool and jacuzzi were very dirty as well.
All that being said, Palm Cove is a very exclusive area and I would highly recommend staying in this area compared to Cairns, which is very touristy. I am guessing this property gets away with their prices since the area is so premium. In the end, I would not stay at this property. It is definitely not worth the price!

You come home to relax before treating your self to the local restaurants. Having such prime location is amazing. After a long I'd go for a dip in the heated pool and hot tub spa. Amazing atmosphere.

Having access to laundry on the property was fantastic and the machines did a great job ($9 AUD). The Beach is just around the corner from the property - amazing paths with access to shops, restaurants -- ideal vacation spot - so laid back.

Amazing location with lush gardens

We stayed for a week at the Reef Retreat Palm Cove, and enjoyed every minute. While we booked a spa room, we didn't use the spa at all as the pool and outside spa were too amazing to pass up. Our villa overlooked the pool, with ample privacy to not feel exposed. It was clean, the outdoor kitchen was well equipped (though also unused - so many options for meals in walking distance), and the king bed was very comfortable. Jim was friendly and helpful, and we'll definitely be back.

Disappointing

Arrived late to find a safe on the wall with instructions above how to open it, inside were the room keys, anyone could have taken them!
The footpath towards the room were badly maintained large cobbles, not easy with a suitcase.
I the found my Roo to be on the 2nd floor accessed by open wooden staircase joined by wooden platforms - news to me. I was lucky enough to have a friend with me to help with my suitcase as there was no way I could have got it up the stairs.
Initial impressions was the place appeared tired and a bit tatty. The pool appeared a bit grubby, but I didn’t actually stand at the edge, that was from the footpath.
The room was clean and functional.
Saw 2 members of staff during my stay, one borderline rude and disinterested, the other quite pleasant.
It is well located in the town.
Would I stay there again? No.

The good: less than 1 minute walk to the beach. Charming. Liked the aesthetic of being in the jungle. Comfortable enough. Good area and fine price for the area.

The bad: the floors were not very clean. Lot of dings, dead bugs and minor damage that regular upkeep should resolve. Wifi expires after three days. Need a new code from reception which is only open 9-530, awkward on tour days. Phone was broken. Parking is included by very tight. Lots of bugs get inside, found bees in the bathroom every day.

The Reef Retreat is just off the main Esplanade, which means it is quiet, yet accessable to all that Palm Cove offers. The rooms are good, with plenty of space for two people. We found the shutters on the veranda to be a bit tricky to coordinate at night, as we wanted natural ventilation with open shtters, but the security lighting was too strong to allow us to leave them open. The pool area is beautiful, with the melaleucas giving great shade and atmosphere.

Family getaway

This property was fantastic! Upon entry into our townhouse we were greeted with a local business voucher as well as members cards to other local business for discounts.

Full kitchen and laundry facilities have us the opportunity to cook our own meals but also to not pack as much as we could do our own laundry. We were able to use our saved $$$ for extra outings that we didn't previously explore. Ensuite bathroom was very roomy with great water pressure, other bathroom a bit cramped but still great water pressure. WiFi access was for 72hrs which you needed to renew after this and was FREE.

The location was perfect, not even 100mtrs from the beach, close to a 10min stroll to the jetty, plenty of eateries, shops, sun & sand and the local pub just up the road.

We enjoyed the on-site pool everyday after our exploration adventures and even a couple of evening dips enjoying the sounds of the local nocturnal wildlife.

Would I recommend, YES
Would I return, YES

Thank you for a very pleasant break away.

Why do people obviously unsuited to hospitality persist in trying to make a living from it? Jim was surly, unhelpful and always too busy on the phone to speak with face to face customers. The room was clean and the location quite central to the centre of Palm Cove. As a VIP member I was expecting a late checkout but the words were hardly out of my mouth before Jim rushed in to say “if available “. Considering the retreat was barely occupied it defied belief that a late checkout request could not be accommodated. We will be back to Palm Cove but we won’t be staying here again.

A place to relax

The location is easy to access and close to beach & restaurants. There was an unusually high amount of rain during our stay and the pathways quickly flooded, making it awkward to pull suitcases. The room itself was fine - no issues there. The laundry room was welcome but the washing machine and dryer only take $1 coins - a change machine would have been helpful as the office is not open 24/7.

The property was very clean and comfortable and the view from the balcony looking over the tree tops lovely, but website says property is low rise - it is a multiple level complex without a lift and we had to climb 40 steps up to our unit. We had requested an apartment on ground or level 1 (which website says 1 bedrooms are on) as my husband has a disability making climbing stairs extremely difficult. But on arrival, much to our astonishment, we were taken to the top level. When I enquired about moving to a lower level, as requested by phone prior to making the booking, I was informed that I had definitely not asked for this as it would have shown up on the request screen of the computer. This is always a priority for all accommodation for my husband's needs and we never stay unless its a low level or has a lift.
