Perfect hide-away
Review Submitted: August 10, 2009
Date of Stay: August 2009
We have just returned from a trip to Australia, that ended in this apartment in Palm Cove, and I do not want to miss to share our experience with everyone looking at this webpage.
Prior to our vacation in Australia, we reviewed a lot of apartments and hotel rooms online, to find the right place to stay for the last 5 days of our 4-week vacation. And - we did!
The Amphora complex is beautiful, with a huge lagoon pool, whispering palms, a great restaurant (although we only went out for breakfast there, but it was really worth it) and just opposite the wonderful beach. Palm Cove itself definitely was the right choice as well - 40 minutes to Cairns by bus, that runs every half hour throughout the day, and hourly until late at night. Pick-ups for all tours directly there is well. It is really laid back there, nice restaurants and cafes, and 2 small supermarkets, all in easy walking distance.
The apartment is wonderful - very spacious, nice kitchen with all fittings you need, washing machine and dryer, and a really wonderful balcony overlooking the pool. We have spent great evenings sitting outside, listening to the rolling waves of the ocean and to the whispering of the palms in the wind. It has to be noted, that it is also nicely shielded from the wind, which is a good thing if you are travelling in a time with strong winds, like we have.
To conclude: it was definitely the right place to be, for a family with 2 children aged 8 and 9 - but certainly also for couples or friends without children.
Owner's Response: Dear Sandra,
Thank you for your nice comments. Am so happy to know you had a wonderful time staying at our apartment and Palm Cove. You are very much welcome to stay with us again.
Best regards to you and the family,
Florence
