Beautiful resort. Reminded us of staying in Ubud. A little pricier but no need to travel overseas. We had a 2 bedroom villa with plunge pool and loved it. Restaurant food great and also had the option of bringing in food from town and cooking ourselves (had a great BBQ one night)

Great place to stay but the birds very noisy especially in the morning

The dishwasher didn't work in Villa 5 The breakfast menu was a little disappointing considering it was supposed to be ala carte breaky included in package. We paid good money to stay there.

Amazing, relaxing stay, private and great staff. The only issue was the next door villa had screaming kids on several occasions

The size and atmosphere of the villa was incredible. Like being in a tropical oasis with so much space for all of us. Only downside was the hardness of the beds, the quality of (both) BBQ and the pool lights not working so we couldn’t swim at night

Loved staying at this beautiful property. It was very luxurious and had everything you needed for a comfortable stay. Would highly recommend

Niramaya is a tranquil paradise located a short drive from the centre of Port Douglas .Villas are situated in a beautiful garden setting and include their own private plunge pool and day bed. Villas have Foxtel, modern Smeg appliances, ceiling fans and air con if you need it. The ceiling to floor windows and folding walls/ doors really bring the outdoors inside. Our pool had a beautiful view of the lake and water features and fountains in and around the property, ensure you can hear running water everywhere you go. This was very relaxing! We didn't have any issues with insects during our stay (we stayed in July), but we did note that not all window louvers had fly wire behind them. The bathroom was very clean and spacious and included a huge shower and a lovely spa bath. The mattress on our bed was ok but could have been more comfortable. The futon bed was very close to the floor and surrounded by a frame made of large wooden slats. My partner and I slept relatively well during our stay but it was tricky to get in/out of bed and move around the room without tripping over this frame. Beds were only covered with sheets so we had to use slightly musty woollen blankets in the cupboard on cooler nights. The provision of 24 hour reception and better quality bed linen would enhance the Niramaya experience even further. Overall we really loved our stay at Niramaya and would highly recommend it if you can afford the considerable expense of staying at this beautiful oasis!

Loved the villa, quiet, private & with all the facilities we needed at the resort. Staff were friendly & helpful, breakfast at ChapterOne each morning was delicious. Looking forward to staying again.

It was a beautiful spacious property in a quiet surrounding but it was very difficult with young kids with lots of water features that were dangerous to kids under 3. Each unit also had their own pool which was fabulous though.

Incredible tranquil resort. Great food and service.

This place is awesome! Gorgeous design, lovely green spaces, gorgeous villas with top class pool, restaurant & spa facilities. Highly recommend this amazing place.

A wonderful hotel - truly luxurious. Superb private villa woth lots of space and a private plunge pool. Lots to di nearby. We did not wNt to leave.

Wonderful oasis in Port Douglas to escape the world and retreat into your own private tranquil world. Gardens are gorgeous, property is peaceful and relaxing. The Villas are extremely well appointed. The staff were extremely helpful and I would definitely return.

Excellent faciliities,surroundings & customer service. Also the restaurant & customer service were AAA+++ (6 star). Highly recommend resort!!!

This was a super deluxe holiday accommodation. The whole place is surreal and we loved the gardens and the plunge pool. It is expensive but worth it if you wish to have a few days to relax, maybe after a few days of adventuring in Cairns and Cape Tribulation.

A very unique stay! The villas are huge. The facilities are awesome. The service was very good and everyone was laid back. My only gripe is the room itself could be more comfortable. Wasn’t a fan of the bedsheets, or the loud neighbors next door. They should also service the rooms more frequently than once in a 1 week stay.

We stayed for three nights over the Christmas holidays, the height of summer. We loved this resort, and our villa was amazing. Our daughter lived in the pool while my husband and I tried to get cool in the AC. Our complaints are similar to others here... the villa wasn't super clean when we checked in. It really just needed to be refreshed and swept. There were a lot of cobwebs and spiders/spider dirt in the corners and the floors were dirty. We did notify the front desk, and she offered to have housekeeping come, but we said no. Now seeing other reviews of the same exact issue, it disappoints me that the resort isn't changing their housekeeping practice. The beds were also very uncomfortable. They are asian style futon beds so they are low to the ground but the mattresses were hard and the sheets were a thick woven fabric and weren't very soft. Our only other complaint is that our villa faced east/west so we had the setting sun on the main part of the house, and it was impossible to cool down the kitchen/living area. The AC just couldn't keep up with the heat. I imagine this would have been a magical place in the winter months when you could keep all the windows and doors open to the breeze. We only interacted with then one staff member, and she was delightful. The restaurant was good and met our dietary restrictions for breakfast with no problem. This was a real splurge for us, and I hate that we were disappointed by cobwebs and a hard mattress.

My wife and three children recently stayed at Niramaya over the Christmas holidays and could not have been impressed. The villas were themselves were beautifully designed, well appointed, clean and mist importantly - tranquil. The villas are set in a stunning tropical setting and are completely private. From the moment we walked into Niramaya to the moment we reluctantly had to leave we were in paradise. In fact, we cut another part of our holiday short so we can go back to Niramaya for another two nights before we head home.

We stayed in villa 16 cleanliness wasn’t up to scratch. Blinds mouldy , showers mouldy, fridge rusted, OK - restaurant chapter one wasn’t very welcoming towards children- they don’t service the villa at all you have to do this yourself annoying when your on HOLIDAYS. We were charged for portable cot $40?. Over priced for what it is. Pool fountain stopped working no one Bothered to fix it. Or clean the mouldy shower even though I called twice.

Beautiful resort and great surrounds, highly recommended. A bit pricey though

Enjoyed our stay and was a very comfortable place to stay. A little out of the way from the main shopping street - this may not suit everyone. We had a car so not much of a problem. Private pool is very nice and the surroundings are excellent. Was not too busy when we went which made the stay pleasant.

Our Villa was trespassed by someone in the last night we stayed there. Luckily we kept all our valuables in our rooms and only some food in the open kitchen was lost. We heard noise during the night and though it was animal now we realized it was someone who tried to open garage door manually.

Fantastic property, well appointed & maintained gardens. However rooms need more attention to detail eg. spider webs, stains on soft furnishings, poor kitchen & bathroom cleanliness. Wifi is woeful & breakfast provided is poor. Not great value for the high price.

Very quiet at the time of year we went (end November). The villa was very spacious.

The facilities and staff are impeccable. Stunning resort. One night they decided to host a wedding in the center complex. It was so loud I couldn't even sleep with all the doors and windows shut. Had that not happened, it would have been perfect. If you are looking for the most beautiful place in Port Douglas, this is the place. If you are looking for a quiet spot, you'd probably get better sleep at almost any other place. Before you book, be sure to request they share their upcoming wedding / reception/ event schedule, unless you don't mind staying up past 11 pm and hearing loud music all night that you cannot block out.

Loved the accommodation and having our own private dip pool which was heated and a hit with our kids.

Facilities: Brand new; Value: Affordable; Service: Professional; Cleanliness: Spotless;

Everything about our stay at Niramaya exceeded our expectations. Our beautiful Balinese inspired villa sitting in its own lush tropical gardens with our own pool and complete privacy was just divine. The entire resort is beautifully maintained and the staff friendly and helpful. We can't recommend it highly enough.

Facilities: Modern;

The villas are Balinese in style offering the option of sliding back the glass and having the living area open to the delightful garden. There is a well equipped kitchen with dishwasher and gourmet BBQ. We enjoyed eating in in such surroundings, especially in the morning with the sun coming in. We selected a two bedroom villa but it actually had three with one locked off. The master bedroom was upstairs and was palatial with twin walk-in showers as well as a separate spa bath. There was lots of storage. The second bedroom downstairs was a queen with its own ensuite bathroom. Our garden backed onto the forest with lots of birdlife and had its own plunge pool of very generous size with great lounging facilities. There were very stylish and comfortable lounges indoors and a large screen TV with a Bose sound system connected. The DVD player was difficult to operate (it took some time to find out how to convert from black & white to colour) and it rejected some DVDs as being out of region but the TV function was fine. We enjoyed the very private and luxurious environment especially as the September weather was perfect for the whole week. We also enjoyed a number of treatments at the spa with the excellent therapists. We also enjoyed swimming in and lounging around the main pool near the restaurant which brought drinks to us. The meals in the restaurant were excellent and the delicious $20 two course lunches were great value.

Three day holiday sans children to the fabulous Wet Tropics. Glad we chose Niramaya Villas, as the villas, grounds and general facilities are amazing and super relaxing. Main difficulty encountered was the daily choice between lounging in our villa's private plunge pool, heading to the main pool, or wandering off to the nearby 4-mile beach (apx 10min easy saunter away).

Secluded, peaceful. Enjoyed the heated plunge pool and gardens and the Balinese influences. However, the kitchen benchtops and the mattresses need replacing. Would love to return but would not expect to pay the same amount unless a bit of updating was done.
