A wonderful property
We enjoyed a wonderful 10 days at this property, The house was spacious, extremely clean & had everything we needed. The house is only a short walk to the beach, cafés & restaurants. We highly recommend staying here and will definitely be back in the future!!

A beautiful home
We were so impressed with our stay at Palm Cove Beach House. It was so clean, cosy and just a gorgeous house to stay in. The beds and pillows were really comfortable and the linen was lovely too. It is in such a great location - just a few minutes walk down to the beach, and right near bus stops to get to the attractions around Palm Cove. We will definitely be back one day!

Beautiful, clean and so comfy!
We can't recommend this house high enough! Perfect place for our relaxing stay in Palm- we are recommending it to all our friends!

Perfect accommodation

The host provided fast and effective communication from the moment we booked. The home is perfectly positioned - close to beach, restaurants and shopping, making our two week stay easy breezy. We were welcomed into a clean home with all amenities we needed, with added bonus of the plunge pool. Such a great place and experience. Highly recommend this stay.

A Perfect Gem.

Three weeks in beautiful Palm Cove away from cold Melbourne. Could not have chosen a better place to stay. Although only two of us, villa suited us perfectly. Excellent location, lovely tropical garden with plunge pool which we used frequently. All facilities were excellent. Communications with Donna were very professional. All in all, we could not fault this property and we certainly intend to return next time we wish to escape Melbourne’s winter.

A lovely home away from home. Beds were comfortable. Everything there you need if you decide to eat in, which we did a lot of because unfortunately our son was sick from the day after we arrived until the day we left. Donna answered any questions promptly. We would definitely stay again when next in Cairns.

Lovely Stay

A very relaxing and comfortable stay. The undercover terrace, back yard and plunge pool were a fantastic recipe for relaxing, reading and lounging the days away. The house is very comfortable and has all the ingredients for a self-sufficient stay, letting you to choose to eat out or stay in. Couple of things to note: 1. A car makes getting around and exploring at your leisure much easier.

A lovely, centrally located holiday house

A lovely holiday stay in Palm Cove. The house is located a short walk from The Esplanade, shops, restaurants, and pier, and close to bus stops. It's close to everything but far enough away to be a quiet retreat. The house was immaculately clean on arrival. The kitchen is very well equipped for those who want to self-cater. The garden is beautiful - it attracts many birds - and the pool very welcome for cooling off. The owner Donna was available any time I had questions and was very responsive.

A lovely home that has everything

Lovely home! Little extras that made me book this property. Port a cot with a thick mattress, a high chair, a pram and a toy box supplied at no extra charge. This proved to be great for us as we traveled interstate. The house had everything you needed and everything was in close proximity. If I needed something I just emailed Donna and she was very accommodating and easy to deal with. Yes the property only has one bathroom but it had a bath and that’s what you need when travelling with a child. Everything was very clean and well presented and the pool was very relaxing. We will be back. Thank you Donna for a lovely experience from start to end!

Everything you need

Beautiful, clean and well appointed accommodation. This is our second stay and we hope to make a third. Donna is very thoughtful and the house is provided with everything you need for a holiday - especially if you have young children. Plenty of toys for the kids to play with indoors and outdoors. Such a short walk down to the beach and all the wonderful cafes. Traffic on the main road into Palm Cove is the only downer as buses and delivery trucks start to roll past early in the mornings, but you can shut the windows and have the aircon on. Thoroughly recommend this house for a stay.

From the moment we walked through Donna’s property and saw the layout, presentation and the cot made up with folded sheets we knew we would have a wonderful break....and we did. This house was sublime, with a delightful outdoor area and plunge pool. We had a fabulous time. Our kids are 4yo and 2yo. Pool/beach toys provided. I miss it already. Thanks Donna!

Relaxing tropical getaway in a family friendly property

Our family stayed for 5 nights during August with two kids (18 months and 5 years old). The layout of the house is great for kids with separate bedrooms, plenty of toys and a well fenced pool / outdoor area. The house is well provisioned, modern and clean. We had a very relaxing stay and would definitely stay again!
