We were on the 2nd floor. Too many stairs, but that was our mistake for not asking! It is walkable to the shops, if you're fit and active

A little bit far to walk to main part of town. Well overdue for a refurbish. Walk ups to most units. Parking reasonable but tight. Stove top is portable and was on a high shelf and not clean, other dishes not clean. Overpriced for what you got. Staff were great, nice pool.

The staff at Bay Villas were SO friendly & helpful-incl. ongoing communication prior to our arrival, suggestions/arrangements for activities whilst visiting, and easy a/h checkin - which all made our holiday easy, seamless & stress free.

Nice place for a short break

Nice apartment in a good central location ... only 10 minutes from the main street in Port Douglas. Lovely welcome from the receptionist, Rhian, who gives a great first impression. Nice swimming pools, although could do with some umbrellas over lounges for some shade. Balcony area was dirty and therefore not inviting. Overall a good stay though.

Location was good the property is close to the beach and to dining options.

room wasn’t overly clean. The floors hasn’t been vacuumed properly. Some items left behind by other residents.

air-conditioning worked well beds are comfortable, full kitchen in our room

ideal if you have little kids because there’s a swimming pool outside right in front of your balcony and they can join in the noisy crowd that hangs out there

not good if you’re trying to get away from the noise because the pool noise comes straight into your unit can’t really sit out on the balcony because of the noise from the pool. maybe, if you’re looking for something for how to ask for a non-pool view balcony

The place is great overall! It's quiet and within walking distance to the main street with all the restaurants and shops (15 mins max). The four mile beach is less than a 10-min walk which is nice. The marina where all the GBR boats leave from is about a 15-min walk which is again not bad. The room is clean and tidy and the kitchen is a nice addition. The pool was always empty when I stayed here. I'm usually picky with hotel bathrooms because it's very easy for mould to grow at the corners around the showers and bath tub but nope it was all white and clean. You'd have to pay for the safe though, I'm not from Australia so not sure how common this is. No complaints overall!

The only thing we didn’t like was the three flights of stairs with luggage was difficult and housekeeping after the forth day only ment they change bed sheets and towels. No soap shampoo or coffee was replenished however if you asked for some they gave it. Laundry was free as well as soap but it was cold water only. All in all it was very clean and comfortable.

- Short walk into town
- Kitchenette well set up
- Free laundry facilities

For improvement:
- Needs a little tlc eg blinds were a little shabby, the drying rack and luggage rack were both a bit rusty

Dislikes:
- Beach Towels vost $5, which I know is standard in Port Douglas but is annoying

All in all, I recommend Bay Villas - I've stayed here before and would again. It just needs a little care to spruce it up around the edges but this stuff is not enough to put me off staying there/

Access to front main road and back road (rear access) allowed one a choice of access. One can walk to the main shopping and dining area, the library and the marina easily.
The bedding (mattress) in the unit requires updating so if you have back issues, the bed in the unit we occupied could be problematic.

My bed was great and surprisingly my pillow was exactly how I liked it. Rooms are close and you hear toilet flushing at all hours of night but you get used to it. Close to macrossan street and 2 back from beach. Good location. Very helpful staff.

No advertised complementary toiletries in the room. A lot of mould in the very tiny bathroom. Supposed to be non-smoking section but couldn’t sit on balcony for cigarette smell. Light on very narrow stairwell not working on one floor so quite dark and dangerous at night. And worst of all : plastic wine glasses!!

We had 5 nights in a really nice quiet, comfortable self contained 1 bedroom ground floor apartment with all necessary mods and cons to make our stay really enjoyable.
Easy free parking was a bonus and only a short walk from the Main Street of Port Douglas

Communication was terrible both pools and bbq areas not available to use and they did not communicate that with us even though I was emailing them a week before arriving and no apology and were quite rude while our stay . Had to purchase beach towels to go to the beach . Would have at least thought they would be complimentary concidering we couldn’t use any resort features . Pool photos on site were definitely not the photos from the resort , even we could use it . First time in port Douglas and would not recommend Bay villa to anyone.

Awful

The room was extremely disappointing. The stove was covered in grease. The floor was sticky and stained and clearly hadn’t been cleaned since previous tenant. The room smelt awful. The bathroom was horrible with a bath shower that my friend couldn’t fit under. The couch was gorse and had a tissue in between the coushions.

Close proximity to Macrossan St, beautiful pool and BBQ area, large apartments perfect for families.

Room was tidy however could use a thorough clean (dust on surfaces, dirty grout, food remnants in cutlery drawer).

Housekeeping staff were pleasant however I didn’t experience the welcoming service and atmosphere from reception that others claim which was disappointing. Felt like the people I interacted with at reception didn’t want to be there.

Alert to Gold Exclusive members

If you choose your room based on Gold bonuses, there was No upgrade (appeared to be availability) we were supposed to be given a bottle of wine and tour credit, we weren’t given either, even though we went and asked twice. Tiny rooms, nowhere to place bags without stepping over them.
There was a $2 per day fee to use the room safe. Bathroom wasn’t adequately cleaned.
The pool and BBQ area looked good and clean.
Port Douglas is a great place to visit, next time we will stay somewhere else.

Soap in the bathroom would have been nice

No soap provided for the wash basin or shower. Brooms, buckets, dustpans etc kept where you hang your clothes...I was going to a wedding so wasn't keen on my expensive dress leaning up against cleaning stuff. The trim under the air-con clearly indicated the aircon was leaking on it which is right above the cupboard where clothes are hung. Very tight ensuite. Had to squeeze around the door to get to the toilet. Expected to empty the bin before leaving (which I did) but this is a hotel. Probably wouldn't stay again to be honest.

Great accommodation close enough to walk to town, we hired bikes for our stay to get around quicker but it’s probably only 7 min walk if that. Room has everything you need for longer stays, pool wasn’t heated but we stayed elsewhere and it doesn’t seem to be the norm to heat pools… I also read reviews of other places and people complained heated pools were too hot so I guess it’s up to the individual. Good location, tidy and great for a longer stay in PD

Clean

This property is 15 min walk from the main street. When I booked, the advertisement including airport shuttle, but it's airport shuttle arrangements, you need to pay the fee separately.
When I left, I was missed by the shuttle service, when I requested for the staff to contact the company after 30min of wait, I was told just wait. After 50min, the shuttle service called the hotel and said the driver missed me. The hotel staff was not sorry for the situation at all because she said she had helped to arrange for the next pick up. I ended up waited for 2 hours.
The hotel itself was clean, minimal supply of toiletries and etc for a self contained accommodation. You even need to pay for more shower gel or laundry powder.
I can't say it's horrible but it's not up to my expectations.
Just my personal experience.

Great place. Friendly, helpful hosts. Good value and in a location which encourages you to take the easy walk into town central. The pool and BBQ were brilliant. Room was spacious, comfortable and well equipped. King size bed really good. We’ll be back and strongly recommend. Only suggestion - if you’re driving, go very very slowly out the exit into Mudlo st as the drainage ditch across the drive is quite a steep drop. You’ve got to watch out for these in PD and Cairns in general
