We booked and due to unforeseen circumstances had to cancel. Wotif were fantastic with they're service but Paradise on the beach would refund any of the total amount paid so list the whole amount, so I wouldn't recommend them to anyone, unless you're walking in from of the street.

I booked a studio apartment with a pool view for 8 nights. I was on the first floor and that was perfect for me as I felt really safe given I was on my own. The bathroom was pretty old and tired and definitely in need of refurbishing but it was all clean so no complaints there. I would have appreciated having a lounge or lounge chair to sit on as I was only able to sit at the table or on the bed. I was very happy not to cook so just having the kettle/toaster/microwave was fine, though it was a bit awkward washing dishes in the bathroom sink. There are so many great food options at your doorstep it’s a great location. The pool and surrounds is lovely and quite sheltered. I would stay here again. I arranged a transfer through Paradise on the Beach and the transfer company was great.

The facility is very dated and not maintained well. At least for the price we paid for. In my opinion, A 3 stars is lucky. There is no windows, the sliding door opens to the court yard, which right face to the BBQ, outdoor dining area, pool and spa. no privacy at all. The bathroom was very old, the shower is over the bath, the glass screen was attached so badly to the bath and try to stop the water from the shower onto the floor. A lot of water was on the floor from the taking a shower. I booked through Expedia, i didn't realzied that there is no service at all for this 6 days booking. I accept that there is $60 fee for one service. But no change of towels for 6 nights stay is a bit too much for us especially it's a tropical seaside reef holiday. On the check in, there was only the key handleed over to us, wifi password , no direction at all. We are on the 1st floor, thought the reception is 1st floor, but mistakenly, there is a ground floor. A bit disappointed ..., we have to come back to ask... I wouldn't recommeded it to anyone for that price.

Another great stay at Paradise on the beach

This was the latest of many stays at Paradise on the Beach and, as usual, it was excellent. The apartment (#102) was clean and spacious with some water views. All the facilities were fine although having taps and a sink in the kitchen area would mean not having to fill the kettle and wash dishes in the bathroom basin. This aside, we look forward to our next stay at POTB.

It's in the heart of Palm Cove. Easy to get around. Everything including the Sunday Market's on the door step! The staff are lovely, and it's clean, spacious and comfy. The only downer was the noise from the pub in front of the accommodation, but it wasn't too bad.
