Perfect Location and Ultimate Luxury. We spent 7 nights in our wonderful Villa on the beach. Magnificent views were a highlight and the apartment was just so comfortable and beautifully presented. You have everything on offer that a resort has, but total privacy and ultimate relaxation. Palm Cove was just a short walk away and a great shopping plaza on the highway had everything we needed. Could not think of a better place to stay anywhere on the coast. Highly recommended.

This was our second visit. Our first was in 2015. The units are very well kept up and the owners have been taking excellent care of the property. Reviews posted by other visitors give a very good description. The fact that this was our second visit and we are looking forward to our third speaks for itself. Without a doubt this should be a location to consider if you are staying between Cairns and Port Douglas.

A Special Place. This was our 2nd time to Villa Beach and everything was still perfect. The place is as immaculate as it was 2 years ago. The beautiful furnishings have been continually updated and a big plus is the free wifi. Another couple came with us and we had a 2 bedroom villa condo, the layout is perfect for 2 couples as the bedrooms both have large ensuite bathrooms each and are situated at opposite ends of the condo’s living areas….. great design, perfect for those who really like to have their own privacy. We went to the reef again and It felt like home again having a BBQ on the balcony looking right onto the beach. Heaven! We walked along the beach to our favourite restaurants that we liked last time we were there and just chilled out totally in the amazing tropical atmosphere. Sunset drinks on the beach is something special. We will be back again soon.

Excellent Stay At Villa Beach, Palm Cove. We stayed at Villa Beach for a few weeks for some rest and relaxation and we were not disappointed. The property is absolutely beautiful and more than we could have asked for. The condo is lovely and very comfortable. We appreciated having a few necessities on upon arrival such as tea, coffee, sugar, food wrap and other household necessities – to get us started. The view from the lanai is breathtaking. The beautiful tropical foliage around the yard sets the view of the ocean just across the street. There are no words to describe falling asleep and waking up to the sound of the sea along with the gentle ocean breezes.

The pool and spa is refreshing and a great end to a day of touring or just to lounge around during the day. Amenities such as groceries, coffee shop, gas and bakery were not far and convenient to get to. Palm Cove is very central to Cairns and Port Douglas but provides peace and tranquility away from the hustle and bustle of a larger city. Everyone is very friendly and welcoming. We highly recommend Villa Beach and should we have the opportunity to return to Palm Cove, Villa Beach is our choice.

Beautiful and Spacious. We came from the US and stayed for four nights in July, 2017. They answered all my emails very quickly especially considering the time difference. They were wonderful and helped us book our day trips. It is clean, spacious, and modern. We stayed in a one bedroom and had plenty of room. I highly recommend Villa Beach!

Wonderful Villa On The Beach. We stayed here for 5 days in February 2017 and had an absolutely WONDERFUL time. The manager was extremely friendly and a great host throughout our stay, with great recommendations for local restaurants and tips to make the most of our stay in the area. The villa was spacious, clean, and the perfect size for my husband and I and my father. Our patio looked over the ocean and was an ideal spot to enjoy a morning cup of coffee while the sun rose. The kitchen was well equipped with a lovely dining table and we enjoyed the option of cooking at home several nights. We used our villa at Palm Cove as a base camp for several excursions along the coast, including a wonderful day trip up to Daintree National Park and Cape Tribulation, and down to Cairns for a full day trip out to the Great Barrier Reef. We would 100% recommend staying here!

A Place You Will Not Want To Leave. We have just returned from our wonderful Australian holiday which finished with 11 days at the fantastic Villa Beach. It is the perfect place to stay. Beautiful, spotlessly clean accommodation in an idyllic beach front location. There is everything you could possibly need in the apartment, including chairs, loungers and towels for the beach. The manager made sure we had all the information on the local restaurants and there is an abundance of leaflets on things to do and see in the area. We would highly recommend Villa Beach to anyone lucky enough to be staying in the Palm Cove and hope to return ourselves one day.

Tropical Wonderland. Stayed here in January 17 for 5 nights. Booking was very easy, The manager, on the ball confirming availability of dates, costs and facilities. On arrival we were met by the manager who gave us the tour of a fantastic first floor apartment which overlooked the white sandy beach fringed with palm trees – everyone’s ideal tropical beach. The apartment was wonderful, full of light and very well equipped. The place was spotless and the manger spent time ensuring we knew the layout of and facilities available. She explained the location of local restaurants and was able to offer discounted trips to the Barrier Reef and Kuranda railway and Skylift – two must do’s. The location was very quiet, and the beach just over the road very inviting with loungers and beach towels available for our use. Villa Beach is a wonderful place to base yourself while exploring the Queensland Rainforest and Reef. Relaxed but very inviting , just like having your own personal holiday home.

Fantastic Villa to share with friends or family right on the beach in beautiful Palm Cove. Everything was just as seen on the website, very clean and comfortable, perfect for us travelling with another couple with two double bedrooms and bathroom each. Well appointed kitchen with everything we needed and we enjoyed breakfast lunch and some dinners on the balcony overlooking the beach. Short 10-15 minute walk to a great selection of bars and restaurants. Great location between Port Douglas & Cairns.

from Perth. WA. Australia

A Piece Of Paradise. Fabulous place to stay, very clean, well set up with full kitchen facilities and barbecue on the balcony overlooking the beach. Just 10 mins walk to the heart of Palm Cove and all its attractions. Absolutely great reception from the owner / manager who was very extremely helpful with tour bookings and suggestions on what to see… Will definitely be going back again great value for money.

Amazing! We had such an amazing time, the place is even nicer than in the pictures! Very clean, great location, beautiful beach right out the front, shops within walking distance. We will be back!

Lovely Quiet Villa. Wonderful quiet place to relax. Unit was fully equipped with all we needed. Beautiful view from balcony of the beach. Was wonderful falling asleep to the waves of the ocean. Great pool and spa. Everything was clean and in working order. Close to Palm Cove restaurants and within walking distance.

Absolutely Perfect Beachfront Holiday. The Villa Beach accommodation was fantastic. Our host had thought of everything from a torch when walking at night, to a beach lounge that we could take across the road. The apartment is a short 10 minute walk away from Palm Cove, on the beach or through a mangrove walk. We would not hesitate to recommend Villa Beach to anyone who is looking for a relaxing break with so many good restaurants and bars within walking distance.

Ruth B

from Brisbane. QLD. Australia

Perfect Stay. We stayed with friends at Villa Beach in a 2 bedroom apartment for 12 nights. The accommodation was beautiful and the position with sea and garden views lovely, in a quiet location, but within walking distance to Palm Cove. The manager was so helpful. She helped with any information we needed, including about the sights and with booking tours.. Nothing was too much trouble. We would definitely stay there again and highly recommend it to others.

Jill L

from Adelaide. SA. Australia

Terrific Accommodation. Our apartment right on the beach with stunning views was everything we had hoped. The manager was very welcoming and gave us excellent advice on dining options. The apartment was superbly furnished and really comfortable. Couldn’t have asked for more. Lovely quiet location away from the noise of Palm Cove, but a delightful walk through the forest along well set out paths. It was very hard to leave. Loved it! 

Patricia W

Relaxing Week Away. My husband and I have just returned from a relaxing week away at Villa Beach. The apartment could not be closer to the beach, a wonderful location and fully appointed. There was nothing that the apartment did not include for a leisurely break. Thoughtful inclusions and a very helpful hostess/owner made our holiday a success.

Catherine Y

from Sydney. NSW. Australia

Paradise. We rented this beautiful villa for 5 nights to celebrate my 60th birthday. We loved the villa’s absolute beachfront location and immaculate presentation. The fresh flowers in the living room were an especially nice touch. We will definitely return in the near future and have no hesitation in recommending the villa to family and friends.

Angela B

Excellent Apartment Clean and Beautiful. We enjoyed this beautiful apartment it was absolutely clean and I would recommend this place to anyone, the views were great and it was home away from home. It was furnished with simplicity and great style and comfort.

Reo & Martin V

from Narre Warren. Victoria. Australia

Two Thumbs Up! We (two colleagues with a week of spare time to kill between business trips ) booked the apartment to leisure near the beach for a week. And perfect it was! The place is super clean, tasteful and equipped with everything you might require. It has two separate bedrooms with bathrooms and here’s a central AC that really works (you can appreciate that when sleeping in Cairns). The beautiful beach is just ‘cross a small street 25m from the apartment building and there is hardly anyone on it: like a private beach. And maybe the best part: It is a really quite place, we truly were able to forget the rush of normal life and enjoy our time off. We really, really appreciated it. When looking for leisure: accept no substitute.

Just What We Wanted. This was our first visit to Australia and the manager was very welcoming and helpful. She was great with sightseeing suggestions and bookings. The unit we had was 1 bedroom, main floor. We had a patio, walkout to the beach and a garage for our rental car. It was clean, nicely decorated, spacious and comfortable. We were only there for 4 nights and would have loved to have stayed longer! So much to enjoy within walking distance. Palm Cove, local restaurants and the beach. If this vacation rental wasn’t so far away, we would be back next year.

Paradise Found. After reading previous excellent reviews our expectations were high, We weren’t disappointed, the location of this property, facilities & the way the villa is presented is second to none. The manager deserves high praise for the pristine way the dwelling is kept along with the cleanliness & attention to detail, your every wish is catered for, every villa is self contained & each villa has its own outside lock-up which contains beach chairs & loungers along with your own personal car par parking space, in short I would have no hesitation in recommending this property, an absolute gem !!

Sweet Condo. My husband and I had a lovely time during our 6 night stay. The condo was immaculate with everything exactly as described. We went to Port Douglas, the Cairns Zoo and the reef during our stay. We originally planned more trips but loved the condo, views, pool and beach so much that we ended up just chilling and enjoying the local restaurants during much of our stay. Perfect!

Ana O

from Chicago. Illinois. USA

Quality Villa in a Fantastic Location. We can’t speak highly enough about our experience. Take the TUSA6 reef dive if your considering one. Our ground floor pool side Villa was simply beautiful. Tastefully decorated and spotlessly clean with everything you would need for self contained stays. The location on the northern end of Clifton Beach was perfect for us with Palm Cove just a 10 minute walk for morning coffee / breakfast and evening dinner and drinks. Try Vivo for coffee best one we found, Portabello and Sea Temple for dinner. Coco Mojo hidden at Clifton Beach was the cheapest and good quality. We are keen to return and have no hesitations in recommending Villa Beach for your stay.

Mick & De M

from Maitland. NSW. Australia

Look No Further! If you are looking for a place in this geographical area that is quiet and secluded, clean, and on the beach, this is it! The 2-bedroom condo we stayed in was perfect. We were on the ground level and enjoyed the ocean view from our patio. Cool breezes facilitated sleeping as did the rhythm of the breaking waves. We did not rent a car during our two-week stay as everything we needed was a short walk away – and the bus to Cairns was readily available. I am not given to hyperbole, but Villa Beach was just what we were looking for! I would return in a heartbeat.

Stephen F

from Mississauga. Ontario. Canada

A Fabulous apartment – just gorgeous and had absolutely everything we needed. Close to Palm Cove and lovely beach right in front. Didn’t want to leave.

Beautiful Views and Tranquil Environment. Our stay at the Beachfront Villa was amazing. There were 5 of us in a 3 bedroom apt and it was so comfortable and spacious. It was relaxing and better than we could have imagined. The villa is right on the beach, as promised. We went to sleep each night with a gentle lullaby from the surf! We would stay at the Beachfront Villa again without hesitation!!!

Bailey S

Immaculate Apartment. Spent a lovely week here recently. The apartment was well layed out and immaculately presented. It is clear that thought has been put in to making sure you have everything that you need so your stay is as comfortable as possible. We have rented many apartments over the years, this one was the best in terms of location, comfort and the spotless presentation of it. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to stay in the area. 

Paula C

from Edinburgh. Scotland. UK

Great Location and Wonderful Stay! Great location close to the beach and you can see parrots from your balcony. If you have a car there are many interesting places to visit in the area. Big apartments with everything you need.

Eva W

Beautiful Villa. We loved our stay here. Tons of local restaurants within 5 minutes. Palm Cove is only a short walk away. The villa was very well kept. The beach was very nice, clean, and private.

Stefana Nemo

from Washington. New Jersey. USA

Beautiful, Spotless and Spacious. Our stay was terrific. The apartment was beautiful and our host had thought of many little things to make our stay a pleasant one. The apartment was immaculate and well appointed. The location was perfect and I definitely recommend this apartment. I will definitely return in future. 

Steve S

Perfect Peaceful Home Away From Home. We spent 9 nights here and we were so pleased with the unit. It was very private and relaxing!! Next time we will stay for a month!! The manager could not have been more helpful and unobtrusive at the same time. I was a little disappointed that our door did not open right on to the beach but it was only 40 steps away. It is so close that you can hear the waves crashing on the beach. Stunning sunrises. Every evening we took our very comfortable lawn chairs to the beach and enjoyed the view and the very friendly locals. 

Victoria Mc

from Calgary. Alberta. Canada

Simply Wonderful. We are now into our 4th week of a 9 week extended vacation. We met up here in Cairns with friends from Alberta for the remaining 5 weeks. This is our 3rd day here at Villa Beach. What a treat! If you read all of the other reviews, you pretty much get a picture just how nice the apartments and beach location are. Our hosts, like almost every Aussie we’ve met are very friendly and extremely helpful. While planning our trip from Canada it can be a bit daunting. If you are heading to Cairns, this is the place to stay. 

Terry D

from Brooklin. Ontario. Canada

Just as represented, only better! My friend and I enjoyed a lovely six-night stay at Villa Beach in a two bedroom unit. It was wonderful to have plenty of space, a well equipped kitchen, two balconies to enjoy the evening bird and flying fox activity, and the beach right across the street. I would highly recommend, and hope I get to return to stay longer next time. Close to Kuranda, Daintree, and The Reef, there’s so much to see and do in the area, but I’d love more time to just “stay home” at Villa Beach.

Sonja & Doug B

from Fairbanks. Alaska. USA

Awesome Place To Stay. This place is a little piece of heaven. Decorated beautifully and tucked away between Cairns and Palm Cove. Our room had a view of the ocean and we could walk across the street to the beach. We rented a car but one would not have been necessary as everything is within a 10 minute walk. The manager is very accommodating to your needs should you request assistance with anything. You can not go wrong staying here.
