We arrived at 10pm to find the keys and full instructions about our accommodation. We were on the second floor - 29B - and we were pleasantly surprised by the size and layout of the flat.. Good sized bathroom, adequate lounge, comfortable bed and typical self-catering equipment c/w TV. There was a balcony overlooking the pools with table and two... More

I recently stayed at Bay Villas for 6 days and it was everything we hoped for. Close enough to town and to the beach to walk, close enough everything else as well. The villa (studio) had overhead fans, air conditioning, cooking facilities and a comfortable bed. The resort has 2 pools, spa and free laundry service too. I'll be back. More

What a disappointment, we were told that this was close to town, it's a fair walk so location not ideal if you want to be close to town. Accommodation spacious but old and dated. Swimming pool concrete base so you do not get the clear blue water effect, also very small, it's more of a "dipping pool" and everything seems... More

I'm slightly perplexed by the negative reviews for Bay View- its five minutes from the beach by push bike (which they rent, and as Port Douglas is quite small they're recommended), and the apartments are clean and modern with all the mod cons (plasma tv, good sized kitchen area, safe, comfy bed, balcony etc.) We only met one member of...

We stayed here for 14 days at the beginning of December. The 2 bedroom self catered apartment had everything we needed for our stay and was clean and tidy. Each room had a fan and air conditioning so our apartment stayed nice and cool. It also had an outdoor courtyard which we made the most of. The resort had 2... More

A nice self catering apartment complex, with good facilities – pool, BBQ area, and laundry. Only a 5 mins walk from the Four Mile Beach. We spent 5 days and it was perfect for our needs, a short walk to the centre and to the beach. All the necessary was provided. The studio apartment was clean and good size. If... More

Reception was closed but we had a friendly letter stuck to the reception door with keys and instructions on how to find our apartment and a map of the resort. It was one bedroom; clean and spacious with ceiling fans and air con.As we had no provisions... More

When we arrived we were greeted with a nice smile and lots of advise on what to do in Port Douglas. The two bedroom apartment was large and had all the amenities you needed. We were on the ground floor right near the swimming pool. We also had our own private garage which entered into the apartment. Bay Villas Resort... More

We stayed here for a week at the end of Australian honeymoon in July. The studio apartment overlooked the pool and was ample sized for the two of us. 10mins walk to the beach, 10 mins walk to the main street. Everything was clean and in good working order, if a little dated in the room. Cannot really comment on... More

Stayed here for a week. Very small room no where to store any thing. Bed was shocking. Ensuite very small no fan or ventillation. Ran out of hot water after very short showers. Would not stay here again. It was a major disappointment. More
