The room was clean and the furniture was nice, modern and comfy. The breakfast was a nice added bonus, not having to organise this with young children made things easier. The air con while it worked well in the lounge/dining area, didn't penetrate too well into the bedrooms. The kids loved the pool. Overall we had a lovely holiday.

Stayed at this resort for 9 nights. Very friendly and helpful managers. There were a couple of small issues with our apartment which were fixed very quickly to make our stay more comfortable. Lovely pool area. Breakfast was adequate - loved the Daintree tea! It was convenient being able to book any excursions from the reception area.

We have just returned from a fabulous week spent at Port Douglas Sands Resort. We stayed with friends in Number 1 - a 3 bedroom ground floor apartment, right opposite the pool. The pool / BBQ area was gorgeous. You can help yourself to breakfast in a communal dining room - first time I've seen that in an apartment complex... More

Port Douglas Sands Resort was an ideal place for our family of five. Our kids are 20, 17 and 13 and we had a lovely week's stay. The resort was the perfect size - not too many apartments to be too imposing. Our ground floor apartment was right near the pool and the Breakfast room, so we had ideal access... More

As a family of two adults and two young children we found the Sands Resort to be a great holiday option. Our second floor unit overlooking the central pool area was clean and spacious. As with an earlier comment the only problem was with the hot water unit heating our bedroom. The resort was very quiet. We generally had the... More

At first glance, Port Douglas Sands Resort looks quite unpreposessing compared to other accommodation in Port Douglas, but do not let that put you off. Once inside the gates, you have entered a small, tropical haven. We were there in January, on a four nights for the price of three deal, and loved every minute of our stay. Our apartment... More

We were a family of two children and two adults. We stayed there for a week and loved it. The owners are very nice and helpful. The pool is big, clean and nice; children just loved it and spent several hours in it. The area is magic and there are a lot of things to do, even if you do... More

The hotel was great. We made a last minute booking and were pleasantly surprised. The rooms are great. We stayed in a two bedroom apartment, which had full kitchen, laundry, great aircon and ceiling fans and a good lounge area. If there was any negative, it was that our main bedroom hosted the hot water service in the wardrobe which... More
