About this property

Poolside at Temple Resort: A Lush Tropical Escape

Summary:

Set within the prestigious Sea Temple Resort & Spa, these inviting dual-key apartments combine to create a stylish three-bedroom retreat with direct access to the iconic Four Mile Beach. Designed for effortless comfort, it features a full kitchen, in-unit laundry, and seamless indoor–outdoor flow to multiple entertaining areas. From refreshing swims in the lagoon pool to sunset cocktails at the island bar or an indulgent spa treatment, every moment captures the essence of tropical Port Douglas.



The Space:

Step inside this spacious 3-bedroom dual key apartment (101 & 102) and feel an instant sense of calm and relaxation. The layout is ideal for families or groups, offering privacy while still being connected. Located in the shallow lagoon area near the spa, it’s especially convenient for families with younger children. With access to the resort’s shared pool, the home captures Queensland’s signature indoor–outdoor lifestyle, bathed in natural light.



Inside, an L-shaped sofa and central TV create a welcoming living area to unwind after a day in the tropics, while sliding doors connect seamlessly to a private patio framed by lush greenery. Enjoy a relaxed breakfast outdoors, stretch out on sun loungers with a novel, or sip wine as the evening breeze drifts in.

The modern kitchen is fully equipped with quality appliances, a Nespresso machine, and generous bench space, making it easy to prepare anything from beachside snacks to indulgent dinners. A large dining table invites everyone to gather for shared meals, though the on-site restaurant offers effortless alternatives.



Three inviting bedrooms blend soft, calming tones with premium bedding to ensure restful nights. The primary suite features a queen bed, a private lounge with a TV, and a bar area with a dining nook for easy breakfasts. A contemporary ensuite with dual vanities and a walk-in shower completes the space, which opens to a garden patio with alfresco seating — the perfect setting for morning coffee. The second bedroom is styled with a queen bed, while the third offers a king. These rooms share a bright, modern bathroom with a generous shower.



For added convenience, the apartment includes an in-unit laundry with a washing machine and dryer, as well as on-site parking. Air conditioning and ceiling fans throughout ensure year-round comfort.



Guest Access:

During your stay, you and your group will have the entire apartment to yourselves, as well as access to the shared gym and pool. Please make yourselves at home!



The Neighborhood:

The relaxed town of Port Douglas is famed as a starting point to explore the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Great Barrier Reef and the Daintree Rainforest. It’s home to the tree fringed Four Mile Beach and offers a vibrant village centre with plenty of cafes, bars and restaurants. Visitors can choose from a great range of cruises departing Port Douglas Marina, which cater to sightseeing, snorkelling and scuba diving, as well as day trips to Cape Tribulation, Mossman Gorge and the rainforest village of Kuranda. Dine at contemporary Australian eatery Zinc and tuck into gastro-pub fare at The Court House Hotel. Kids will love a visit to Wildlife Habitat to get up close with wallabies, koalas and more.

Skip this one, tired, dirty, stained, photos not current.

This property is not part of the pullman group, it is a privately owned unit. As such, the quality is not up to resort standard. The photos in the listing are very old and do not reflect the current standard. The outdoor furniture is ripped, stained and mouldy. There is a significant amount of damage including mouldy dining chairs, stained carpet, broken blind fittings and the kitchen bench is black stained all over and needs to be replaced. The cleaning was dire, old food stuck to the sink, the fridge was dirty, there was hair and grime in the laundry recess. The list really goes on and on. The doona's were blood stained in a couple of places with yellow marks on the others, this would not have been seen except the doonas are not in covers, they have sheets folded over them. The booking agent was somewhat receptive to our concerns and gave us a part refund of 1.5 days but in our opinion this did not go far enough as the terrible quality of the accomodation which is NOT as it appears in the photo ruined the holiday. Do not stay at this property, keep looking for something else. If it's the pullman you want, book directly through the resort as maybe the properties in their group are better?
