Amazing stay! Enjoyed it. Very nice villa and amazing pool.

We had an awesome stay here. The girls lace was spotless. The surroundings were clean and quiet. We had some maintenance issue with one of the light switch, which when mentioned to the receptionist, was tended to very promptly. My only qualm is that the restaurant on the premises had absolutely no vegetarian options on the menu except for chips. Not even a Margherita pizza, in their pizza menu.

Great location in Port Douglas. I think some of the villas can be hit or miss, but our Coral villa was nice for a family of four. I did miss an instruction on how to use the microwave/oven/airfryer... but details. Great to have the option to wash and dry clothes. Pool was really great!

Reef Resort Villas is an excellent place to stay in Port Douglas. The Villas are large (two bedroom), clean, self-contained (including two bathrooms and a well equipped laundry) and have a 'wow factor'. Everything required was provided in a fully equipped kitchen; the lounge was comfortably furnished and included a large screen smart TV and excellent Audio system; and the beds were comfortable with good linen. Staff at reception were most helpful. The grounds were pleasant and included a beautiful pool. An on-call shuttle (5-7 minute delay between calling and arrival) service was cost effective to travel to- and from- town, where all necessary shops, cafes and restaurants were available. Tour operators pick you up from your door. That the Villa was not serviced daily was not an issue, and the 'Restaurant' on site is more a limited-range cafe. Food was available by delivery, but with the excellent kitchen, buying groceries and cooking for yourself works well. For excellent dining options, two restaurants in Port Douglas stand out: Salsa and Melaleuca, both on Wharf Street. Both these offer fine food and service, but while prices were at the top end, they were not excessive. The best coffee in Part Douglas is from Origin Espresso on Grant Street. You will really enjoy Port Douglas and a stay with Reef Villas Resort.

We stayed for 1 night and enjoyed ourselves. The pool area was great, and the restaurant produced nice food. I thought the rooms were a great set up, and was nice to have seperate rooms for the kids. That being said, the lounges are tiny and not comfortable. The gym is sub par and felt the reception could be more friendly. When we arrived, the staff continued their personal conversation instead of greeting us. We stood there for an uncomfortable time before we were acknowledged. The same happened again the next morning when we went to reception to get a gym pass. The lady spent far too long talking to staff about a document. Surely, if they were customer service orientated, she would have told her staff to hold on for a second while she asked us what we needed... I actually had to jump in after a few minutes, and say "I dont mean to be rude, but we are just chasing a gym pass...". I then felt she hesitated to give it to is, considering we were checking out later that day. The wifi is also unreasonable. 2gb a day. And its slow. I turned it off and found normal reception faster. Overall, its nice enough, and we'd stay there again if the price stays competitive.

We stayed for just one night. Pool was amazing loved it. Our apartment could have done with a makeover. Very old inside, broken things, not working, very little hot water, door missing. But the beds where comfy and the upstairs bathroom had been done up.

We had such a great stay The staff was incredible helpful

We stayed in Villa 43 and it was perfect. Two bedrooms, two bathrooms, covered parking, laundry and two outdoor sitting areas. The pool area is absolutely incredible. We arrived after reception closed but we just called the number uding the phone on the wall and they gave us the code to the lock box that had an envelope with our keys and all the resort information. I will definitely stay here again.

Nice clean room had the things we wanted for our stay

Massive pool

I thought the facilities and staff were great but the the viilla we stayed in was a little run down. It needed fly screens on the window and sliding doors. We really couldn't use the back ofviur villa at all.

Very relaxing atmosphere. Friendly and helpful staff

It was good

The resort is getting older and is a little old but had everything we needed for our short stay. Reasonable price too.

Villa was good, starting to show signs of aging, requiring some maintenance to improve

The property was good, the unit comfortable and spacious. Only issues were that the location isn't the best with respect to Port Douglas, and the restaurant was never open when we needed it.

The townhouse is perfect for a family who loves space and have everything at hand. Great location and quietness. Amazing pool! We did visit some other hotels with pools around but this was definitely the best. In all honesty, the place needs light renovation as it's a bit worn off but definitely livable. Not 4 stars though- 3.5 max. It would be nice is the restaurant would be open more than one day per week. Overall, extremely positive experience!

The pool was lovely, especially for our son. We had arrived by shuttle from the airport, arranged by The Reef. A frightening experience with the driver tailgating and driving way too fast. SR transport. Never again! The apartment was spacious, but dark and gloomy. The outdoor seating was useless as it just faced other accommodations. I’d describe the decor as “tired”. The restaurant was barely open and as we had no transport this made our dining options limited. The closest food outlet was a fish and chips 1km away. This place lacked atmosphere, was too far from town for the car less. Shuttle cost $7 each one way into town, which equated to over $50 NZ every time we left the resort (return trip for 3) Would we stay here again? Never

We had a lovely return stay at the Reef Resort; we stayed four years ago and were pleased to note that the quality was the same as our previous visit. The accommodation was great for a family, with two upstairs rooms containing a double and 2 single beds, and a neat family room downstairs. Air-conditioning was effective in both bedrooms and the shared area downstairs. The kitchen was well-stocked, with hotplates and a convection microwave available. Only a short walk away a large shared pool can be accessed, with multiple depths providing great play opportunities for all ages. The reception area and cafe fronts the pool with great poolside snacks and tasty lunch and dinner options. The staff were always friendly and helpful every time we spoke to them!

We loved our stay. The apartment was really clean and had everything you needed. The pool was amazing. Not too busy. Port Douglas is tropical paradise. I would try and get one of the apartments near the pools though

Staff very friendly and efficient

Great 4 night stay in a 2 bedroom town house apartment.

Staff were fantastic, when they were there food was great when it was open. The villa we stayed at had dead flies everywhere. We swept up about 20 a day. Shower was dirty our toddler couldnt go on the ground as he would pick up dead flies. We checked out early and ended up having to spend more money on another place. Emailed them with no response.

The staff at the resort couldn't do enough to help us with any issue or question we had, they made the stay great.

The beds were comfortable, linen and towels clean, villa was very grubby looking, needed painting and moderising, kitchen quite poorly equipped, all very tired, and second bathroom was on ground floor away from bedroom. Staff were very friendly, pool area was lovely, was 45 min walk to shops/Restaurants. Apparently was a shuttle bus available. All in all enjoyed my holiday.

Pool area is excellent and cafe/restaurant area simple but pleasant. Room we were in was very tired, close to the main road and in between 2 owned apartments who were partying at night and left beer cans across the front garden of our unit. Reef resort Seems reasonable enough for the price due to the really nice pool but check where you are on the property and who the neighbours are first.

Nice self-contained villa, had everything we needed. Walking distance to the beach and a short drive to town.

Good sized town house so easy to wind down after the day

Great pool for kids and family friendly. Fan was pretty noisy and needs looking at, but other than that, really good place to stay that's a short drive to central shops :)

A bit disappointed because the lounge room smells stinks.. and the smells like dead rat inside the dishwasher.. Never again!!

We enjoyed our time at this resort. We stayed in a mid-range villa which was well appointed and spacious. 1 bathroom and bedroom for each couple. There are some Cafes and local shops close by. We enjoyed the heated main pool and sundeck. Staff were friendly. The Main Port Douglas street was a short drive. Great winter destination. The only slight negative the internet seems to be patchy in Port Douglas. Our room came with a 2gb daily limit

Nice and roomy apartment, although dated. Some apartments are privately owned and not managed by the resort itself. Facilities (dishwasher, washer, dryer and air conditioners) in our apartment needs updating. The pool is great for kids to spend time in. The resort is located about 3 kms from Macrossan street and the restaurant strip, but very easy to get to. Four mile beach is half a kilometre walk away.
