The Artist's Tree House
On the second floor, wooden flooring leads to an open plan fully equipped kitchen featuring wooden benches. The kitchen has an electric stove and dishwasher, toaster, juicer, blender and other appliances. This leads to the dining areas featuring a bespoke dining table with settings for six people. Expansive sliding french doors lead to the balcony, bringing the outside in, letting mother nature steal the show. Spend your evenings looking over the towering paperbark trees, watching the hundreds of birds flying past everyday. There is a small study area, a living room area with two three seater couches, DVD player, selection of DVD's, and digital television. There is a stereo with iPod/iphone attachment. A large air conditioner is available if needed.
The upstairs master bedroom is also air-conditioned if needed. There is a queen size bed. The upstairs bathroom has a shower/ toilet.
Downstairs is another living room that opens up to a deck via french doors. There is airconditioning if needed. There is a large bookshelf with a range of books/DVD's and games. Another large digital television/DVD player and comfy couch. This is great if there is two families, or children - allowing room to spread out.

The location
The Port Douglas Artist's Treehouse is in the heart of Port Douglas, a few minutes walk to the beach, and aobut eight minutes walk to the marina and the main street. Situated on a quiet street, overlooking the towering paper-bark trees. The Treehouse fronts the residential block of "Paper Bark Gardens".
Port Douglas offers something for everyone. The distinctive laid back atmosphere, the breathtaking beauty of the scenery, morning strolls along palm-fringed Four Mile Beach, world championship golf courses, the marina, five star restaurants, local artist's galleries, boutique designer stores finished off with relaxing moments in the sidewalk cafes.
The Farmer's Market every Sunday is a wonderful mix of arts, crafts and local produce. There are amazing experiences diving spectacular Great Barrier Reef that can not be missed. Try a refreshing swim in the crystal clear waters of Mossman Gorge, or Spring Creek to revitalise the soul. Go sailing, spend a day lazing on the many (most empty) beaches.
Laze the day away on nearby Low Isles. Hike scenic trails to Cape Tribulation where tropical rainforest and coral reef meet. The area is unique, a rainforest that has been in existence for more than 120 million years and contains some plant and animal species not seen anywhere else in the world. or take a cruise up river and come face to face with large crocodiles and pythons in their natural habitat from the comfort and safety of a cruise just spend quiet days lazing about in the Port Douglas Artist's Treehouse. The balmy tropical climate year around keeps visitors coming back to Port Douglas again and again.
On booking you will be sent a large compendium filled full of local ideas of enjoying the area.
Things to note

Tina and Matt have created such a unique and comfortable accommodation that is in such a great location in Port Douglas.
We walked everywhere, less than 10 mins to town and beach.
Tina’s artwork around the house is the hero, we discovered new things every day. The house is opposite a green area which really adds to the ambience and we loved listening to the sounds of nature. Communication before and during the trip was brilliant.
Highly recommend.

The house was really well suited for our group ( 2 couples and 2 teenagers) with different spaces to spread out or gather together. The house was comfortable and beautifully styled in a tranquil setting. The hosts were easy to contact, and worked very hard to ensure our stay went well, despite some issues that were beyond their control. Port Douglas is an outstanding destination, can't wait to return!

Great property that can accommodate a few families. Quirky with the artwork, well equipped, good pool. Only a short walk into Port Douglas and the marina which made going out at night easy.

What a fantastic house
We loved every minute and thank you for making everything so welcoming. Your house was the perfect launch pad to everything that the area had to offer and and even more wonderful place to come back to after trips out yonder. A glass of something cooling and white on the balcony after a shower looking at life on the street below was another highlight!

Great artistic retreat
We loved spending time in this house which is full of great art. It is extremely comfortable with air con and ceiling fans. It is close to the wonderful beach and convenient for town yet in a quiet street.. Tina is a very good host sending lots of information about the house and surrounding areas . We would highly recommend staying in The Artists Treehouse.

Wish it was mine !
On arriving at the spacious and comfortable Treehouse, we feel instantly at home, having stayed there on many occasions. It has such a relaxing feel but at the same time there is so much to look at .... the walls are covered in artworks and thought provoking messages . The open windows and doors let in the breezes and the sounds of the tropical birds while giving us a lush green outlook to the garden, palm trees and the magnificent paperbark .
Absolutely perfect location with an easy walk to the either the beach, shops or marina .
The kitchen is well equipped for preparing your own meals as it’s a pleasant option to just stay in !
Looking forward to our next holiday here !

You'll never want to leave!
This property is just so unique and quirky and beautifully presented. Tina goes above and beyond to ensure you enjoy your stay. Everything you need is provided for a comfortable stay in this home away from home. Our family of 5 spent 2 amazing weeks here and never wanted to leave. The open plan and tropical breeze meant we never used the air conditioner once and slept comfortably. Great location. You'll love the day bed on the balcony and breakfast at the huge mermaid table listening to the birds. Faultless!

This unique artistic home, offered us a great experience which was beyond hosting us in Port Douglas. The house has everything one needs for a great vacation (baskets for the beach, big towels and beach toys and a cute pool), has all needed to have a comfy homy experience (nice soaps, soft towels, clean everything) and fun options to have the meals - bar sitting, big table, chairs on the balcony with BBQ and more... Above all it has a great creative artistic style with a humorist touch that adds a special edge to the whole experience. So glad we found this location it is the icing on the cake of any stay at Port Douglas:).

We had a terrific week at the treehouse. The house is both stunning/ecletic and also very comfortable - with plenty of different spaces to chill out. And very kid friendly with a huge toy box & a bookcase full of kids books & Dvds - our 2 toddlers loved it. A few blocks walk from the beach in one direction & the main cafe strip in the other. Loved it & we would very happily visit again.

We had an absolutely brilliant time. The treehouse was just amazing - I just loved it in everyway. The second day at the Treehouse we went down to the little wharf at the end of the street and happened upon a fishing boat just back from sea after 2 weeks fishing - we brought a red emperor and some cod fresh off the boat!! Delicious:) We swam in the sea every day after a big walk along the beach up the hill and down into town for our morning coffee. Loved the book lounge in town. Read our books lying on the comfy couches upstairs in the treehouse - a small little yellow bird flew in a couple of times and hung from the light fitting in the lounge. The decor was so charming -and I loved the windows and sliding doors. The mermaid table was very cool. So many lovely touches I can't list them all!! My husband was on a bit of quest to find the best lamingtons - so we sampled quite a few on our explorations into the areas around Port Douglas.. The whole time we were on holiday I just thought we were staying in the best place in Port Douglas - it was lovely coming back to "our place" to cook up our meals and try out the new and exotic fruits we couldn't resist buying.

The first time I saw this accommodation online I was hooked and it more than met my hopes for the perfect holiday. The house is amazing, creative, great facilities and all the comforts required. We stayed for 2 weeks and I could have moved in permanently. Tina and Matt have created a holiday home for the traveller who wants something unique. I will and have highly recommended it already and will be back.

We were absolutely blown away when we arrived at the artists' treehouse. The decor is just so amazing!! It is unlike anything i have ever seen before - you can tell someone creative decorated!! Every little detail is thought of from having some essential pantry items, to kids toys. There is so much information on what to do in Port Douglas and surrounds as well. We took our 9 month old baby and it was heaven! Romantic and also family oriented. The owners have a little munchkin so they have thought of everything you would need for bubbas.Everything was so comfortable and relaxing. The location is only 10 mins to town and probably less to the beach. As we are lazy (!) we sometimes wished we were a little closer to the beach or to town but being a little away from it all meant that it was extra relaxing. Also remember when going here or anywhere in FNQ that you have to be at one with nature - that means at times very loud birds! :)I highly recommend this place for couples travelling together (without kids) or a family. We left feeling totally relaxed and felt that the generosity of the owners made for an extra special experience.We are now in freezing cold, rainy Sydney and we cannot wait to go back to this place!!

We loved our stay the Artists Treehouse. The place has a magical feel - we fell in love with it. Its filled with so much character, we instantly felt right at home. It was quiet, private but really central - a walk to anywhere. The kids loved all the artwork and the feel of the place. There was room to spread out they spent a lot of time downstairs playing games and we had some lovely romantic dinners upstairs. It was exactly what we needed. The pool was a great escape from the heat. Thanks for making such a special abode to enjoy Port Douglas from. The hardest part was leaving. We will be back!
