Port Douglas hotellit lähellä Port Douglas Wharf and Shipwreck Museum

Plussat: Managers friendly and helpful. Location excellent. On site parking a bonus

Miinukset: Despite their best efforts, not even the managers, Justin and Nathan, could imbue any sense of “luxury” into the Saltwater Apartments. “Luxury” suggests comfort and elegance but neither are present at Saltwater. The décor is like that of an old motel, and not as portrayed on the website. But even old motels are serviced daily. Our two bedroom apartment was not serviced once during our seven night stay. On arrival there was one cake of soap in each of the two bathrooms, one tube of shampoo and conditioner and one roll of toilet paper. The managers did provide more on request, with a smile, just as they provided us with an esky until the non-working fridge could be replaced, gave us a clothes airer to hang our towels on since the luxury does not run to towel rails in the bathrooms, replaced the missing tumblers (which are plastic, such is the level of luxury) but they can’t fix the noise problem. Aside from the constant click of the bedroom ceiling fan, the doors of each of the apartments opens onto a common outdoor corridor, much like a prison, and each door slams loudly, much like a prison door, and every sound and every conversation reverberates along that corridor. The only positive we could find, apart from the jaunty manner of the managers, is the location, which is central and walking distance to everything in town. The on site parking is a real bonus too. What they lack in luxury, Saltwater makes up for in income. These apartments are expensive and certainly not value for money.

Plussat: Location was great and Jason was extremely helpful. The apartment had everything we needed.

Miinukset: The floor was a bit sticky and not that clean when we arrived.

Plussat: Sensational position & ultra friendly staff. Clean & comfortable apartments.

Miinukset: The stairs are a nightmare. For a property on 3 levels & for there not to be a lift was a major disappointment.

Plussat: Staff welcoming and very professional, helpful and friendly. Location fantastic - a walk to the beach, shops and restaurants at the doorstep and the marina also a short walk away. Super comfortable bed. Kitchen well stocked, loads of towels and good bathroom products.

Miinukset: Just slightly weatherbeaten - some of the cabinetry needs updating and the deck needed maintenance. Minor things though

Plussat: Great staff, very comfortable accomodation in an excellent location.

Plussat: The floor space.

Miinukset: The chairs at the dinning table were too low. A lift would have been great.

Miinukset: The apartment needs a lift, to take bags up to the top floor was a mission, we did have assistance from the manager fortunately

Plussat: The apartment was very spacious and offered lots of private space for two couples. The location is brilliant with easy walks to all the best restaurants and to the beach. The decor is beautiful. Jason was really helpful and made sure everything was easy and pleasant. We had a fabulous weekend.

Miinukset: Nothing really - maybe the couch could be a bit more comfy.

Plussat: It was well located, clean, quiet and great staff.

Plussat: Location was very convenient. Jason was more than helpful. Comfortable beds and good pool. Toys/beach stuff/pool stuff provided for the children.

Miinukset: Access would have been difficult for anyone with disabilities (not us)

Plussat: Use of towels for swimming. Clean rooms with everything we needed. Ice machine.

Miinukset: Not having separate bedroom for parents.

Plussat: We were arriving a couple hours before designated check-in time, and would be on a tour of the Reef until after check-in closed. We asked ahead of time to simply check-in early (run the credit card and get the key), and when we arrived they had already made the room available for us. Upon checkout, the gentleman at the desk helped me with a map to show me a slightly off-the-path route to my next destination -- just what we wanted. Much appreciated!

Plussat: Rooms spacious. Comfy beds. Very friendly staff

Miinukset: Parking a little tight. A bit of a hike to the main strip of Port Douglas

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Beautiful old building. Staff were lovely and friendly.

Miinukset: The apartment seemed thought it needed some TLC. The fridge was rusty and one of the first things you see.

Plussat: Sheryl and Bob were wonderful hosts - very responsive and helpful. Very spacious room and patio area with nice outlook. Spa was great - clean and as hot as we wanted. I was provided with a pillow to suit and prompt assistance with any query. Location was central and easy to access beach and main street. We stayed for 12 nights and were sorry to leave.

Miinukset: N/A

Plussat: The location was amazing and the service was very good

Plussat: Location. We were upgraded from a studio to an apartment which was awesome. The studio looked amazing too though. Staff were so lovely. Loved the view from our balcony whilst in the spa and the sounds of the kookaburras at dusk and dawn. Perfect all way round.

Miinukset: Everything was perfect

Plussat: Sheryl and Bob were wonderful. So helpful and cheerful throughout, nothing was too much trouble. Location was excellent, close to shopping and restaurants, but still quiet. Very clean property with everything provided that you could need.

Miinukset: Stairs could be a problem for older people (although Sheryl and Bob were happy to help) and also getting in and out of spa bath could be difficult for some. The plumbing was very noisy and the hot water took an age to come through.

Plussat: Close to everything

Miinukset: Stairs to 2nd floor

Plussat: Space.position.cleanliness.

Miinukset: No stairs to 2nd floor.

Plussat: Location was great it suited traveling with kids as it gave us all space staff were very accommodating to our needs

Plussat: Well located, staff helpful at check in. Spacious and clean. Pool and gardens are lovely.

Miinukset: Twin bed was awful. Sagged in the middle and needs replacing.

Plussat: Location excellent only a couple of blocks from everything, beach, wharf, shops, etc.

Miinukset: Unfortunately even though the room itself was great(24), the location of the room was not! The pool heater/pump was directly below the balcony & living areas & the noisy motor ran from 9am to 6pm everyday so you couldn't use balcony or listen to TV without shutting all the windows/doors due to the noise. And the bedrooms were at the front of the complex so the room was lit up like a christmas tree at night due to the security lights. So not a very restful room at all.

Plussat: the rooms were big and the beds comfortable. Kitchen well stocked for kitchenware.

Miinukset: room had a bad smell (old cooking oil) and floor was smelly. Mildew in the ensuite bathroom spa bath. No lift for luggage.

Plussat: Easy two block walk to the Main Street, Macrossan St. for shopping and dining.

Miinukset: Unit was a little dark with no outlook.

Miinukset: Bed was very firm. Had a few aches and pains from that. Internet was very difficult to connect to.

Plussat: Short walk into town for shops and restaurants. Nice pool area. Helpful hosts. Plenty of room in apartment , clean and tidy

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Great location, well stocked apartment, clean

Miinukset: We had three people staying in the apartment and ran out of hot water after two people had had quick showers, to bad if we wanted to make use of the spa bath, pretty poor when your paying that amount of money

Plussat: Comfortable,affordable accomodation for our family. Suited our needs beautifully. Kitchen well set up.

Miinukset: No negative thoughts

Plussat: We enjoyed the relaxation and the spa inside was wonderful. Excellent location nice and peaceful surroundings.

Plussat: Staff were very friendly and helpful. The hotel was conveniently located for both the beach and town.

Miinukset: The 3 bed apartment we were staying in was very close to the main road going into Port Douglas, therefore traffic started about 6.30 am. Not idyllic or quiet.

Plussat: We stayed here to be at the same location as friends.Unfortunately the ground floor room was dark and was certainly not value for money. We could have got better accomodation for much less.

Plussat: My kids loved the pool. Great barrier reef. The beach. Good food. Excellent Watergate restaurant. The sun. The markets.

Plussat: Very good location. For a stay when we were going places and using hotel just for sleeping, it was ideal. 2 minute walk to beach and 3 minute walk to shops, 3 minutes to marina. Awesome location!

Plussat: The cleanliness of the appartment was excellent. The swimming pool was very good.

Plussat: We stayed in a two bedroom apartment that had a kitchen, washer and dryer, dining inside and on balcony that was comfortable. Management was so helpful in booking events and very kind.

Plussat: Nice swimming pool, good and comfortable for kids and perfect location

Plussat: Nice good sized accommodation with everything we needed. Good location and helpful staff.

Miinukset: Too expensive. No restaurants for kids.

Plussat: Fabulous setting ,rooms and gardens.Enjoyed Port Douglas from this premiere location.

Plussat: You can never fault the Sheridan Mirage. I've stayed at the Mirage every time I've come to Port Douglas since my early 20's. I'm now in my my 50's and Im still booking it. I come and stay every 5-10 years. That speaks for itself. Do I need say anymore?

Plussat: Thought the facilities were good, and especially loved the Cabana's by the pools.

Miinukset: The Cabana service was good on one day, hit and miss the next couple. Suggesting that there was a process failure, that would need to be looked at. The servicing of our room was an issue, which we took up with management, and the issue was resolved.

Plussat: We just got a great deal via kayak, $105 a night in Port Douglas. Great value. Room was spacious, clean and comfy.

Miinukset: Restaurant is a bit pricey for the qualify of food

Plussat: The property was well maintained. Particularly gardens. There was plenty of areas to sit around the pool. Location to beach for walking was fantastic.

Miinukset: The only negative thing I could say was that the cleaning cart was left outside of our door for more of our 3 day stay than not. It seemed to just stay there all the time with no cleaners in sight.

Plussat: Beautiful resort in Port Douglas. The grounds, rooms and pools are stunning, plus it is right on the beach front. Buffet breakfast was good, great selection

Miinukset: The accommodation is quite expensive, but seems to be the case for Port Douglas in general. We visited in late July and the weather was around 25 degrees - pools not heated so too cold to swim. Would be great if they were heated

Plussat: Beautiful beach, lagoon pools were beautiful as well although many were dirty looking. Good location

Miinukset: Very tired resort in desperate need of renovation. Compared to other, much less expensive places in the area they seemed over priced.

Plussat: Convenient Beach access, manicured gardens, good pool facilities, amazing tropical plants in gardens

Miinukset: No microwave in room and few crockery items.

Plussat: The property is large clean and close to the beach. Is something special and everything you need close.

Plussat: Very friendly staff. A bit pushy on the tour desk, though ... influencing you towards their preferred tour providers, probably getting a commission. Great pool and private poolside cabanas!

Miinukset: 2 ordered items missing from our 1st night room service dinner. Disappointing as we'd come a long way & we were hungry & tired. You have to get the little things right when you're 5 Star...

Plussat: Pools breakfast

Miinukset: Rooms were a bit tired

Plussat: The location is great the style is nice

Miinukset: The rooms were a bit dark and could do with an update easy the bathrooms.

Plussat: breakfast table set up!!

Miinukset: breakfast time,mybe 7am to 10am?
