The Villas was a lovely place. Staff very helpful. The only con was it was a long way to go to restaurants. The walk would be ok for young to medium aged people but a bit too far for older people.

Kevin the property manager is very friendly and helpful. The villa is a bit old, though Kevin did excuse at check-in for the run down floor and was helpful when the sink clogged.
Palm Cove is a beautiful place to stay.

Great place for a holiday. Apartments are good size, kids love the pool.
It’s about 10 min walk to the beach, very quiet.

Choose carefully

Pleasant stay at The Villas, large and spacious and spotlessly clean, private pool was larger than I had expected. Lovely quiet main pool. As the Villas are privately owned the decor and standards vary enormously, we had to move villas during our stay, the first villa had a very dated kitchen, appliances and bathrooms although the furniture was new. The second had obviously had a recent refurb so it’s a bit pot luck. As th Villas are located at the back of Palm Cove bordering the Captain Cook Highway some villas can be noisy.

Lovely week in a villa with our own private pool. There was also a bigger pool on the complex for those ‘keener’ swimmers. Villa had all the amenities of a home from home. Well positioned about 15 minutes walk from the sea front and main amenities of Palm Cove. Would highly recommend and will definitely stay again.

Lovely villa in nice surroundings

Nice villa within walking distance to the Palm Cove esplanade. Well equipped and nicely furnished. A private pool in the back was an excellent addition due to social distancing rules at the time. Private and quiet surroundings. Would definitely recommend.

I was insulted .. no host on arrival .. waited half an hour before he appeared ... when I expressed disappointment re the above he released me from liability ... but then I asked to see the villa as it was too late in day .. he refused me access ... it took me 3 hours to find any place that night ... hotels.com did zero to help .. I held on for 45 minutes on phone to hotels.com , at least talking to 3 different call centres having been disconnected each time ...
the Villas and host along with hotels.com is crapp ... rating zero out of 10 .. I will never use hotels.com again

Nice location, old dated villas.

Their review is specific to unit 36.

The unit presented nothing like the photographs online. With a premium price tag for a location 15 mins walk to palm cove, versus on beach apartments for the same money; it’s safe to say upon checking in that we were very disappointed with the 1980’s apartment which has clearly never had an update or even general maintenance carried out. Broken doors, screwed back together, cracked walls and a main bedroom that looks like an early 90’s adult film set.

Upon contacting the reception to make a complaint we were given the response of “we’ve been trying to get the owners to update it for some time, we will pass on your feedback”. All well and good, but when you’re aware the villas is sub par, why continue to rent it out? We have friends staying in another villa which presented exactly like the photos and was quite welcoming.

On a positive note, the pool area, and bbq ammenities were great and we found ourselves spending out time there instead.

Location to palm cove is walking distance and has a great selection of cafes and restaurants.

Not noted on details provided is that check in is only Monday-Friday, and Saturday until lunch time. outside of that you’ll need to organise keys to be left.

For the money, I believe there’s many more modern and clean options available.

Great self contained villa with washing machine, dryer, full kitchen. There is no servicing except sheet change half way through so be prepared to clean up after yourself. You also need to supply your own bin liners, dishwasher powder, laundry powder, toilet paper. We had an oasis villa with a private pool which was great. Close to the main highway, some traffic noise depending where your villa is. Walking distance to the beach. 5min drive to Clifton Village Shopping Centre with takeaways, supermarket etc

Ideal famiiy accommodation in great location

We had a fab week as a family of 4 with 2 teenage kids. The villa had everything we wanted with a well furnished kitchen and comfy bedrooms and living area (though a chest of drawers in the bedroom would have helped a bit with storage of clothes we couldn't hang up). The place was clean and homely and situated by the main road and close to the shopping centre for groceries etc. Tracy at reception was super helpful, proactive, engaging and genuinely interested in assisting us with things to do. She also loaned us an esky for our days trips to different places.

A bit disappointing.

Poor internet. 2 trash bags and 2 dishwasher tabs for a 4 night stay yet instructions are to take the trash out daily, wash dishes daily. No paper towels. Little annoyances detract from the appeal. Yes, we can use our phone hotspot and buy necessary items but please just charge an extra dollar or two per day and provide what's needed.

Lovely room with a private pool, though it wasn't warm enough to swim much. The location was ok though the noise from the highway was very noticeable when you have the doors open or are in the pool area. Overall was a good stay and would recommend, especially if you can get a room away from the freeway. Also would be good if they recycled, instead of it all going in the bin.
