Port Douglas, Queensland Hotel Rooms at the Independent

I really enjoyed my short stay at Gratitudes Port Douglas earlier this week. The room was so well appointed, they didn't forget a thing, ipad, coffee machine, modern & chic decor, loved it. I was travelling alone and was in a QS balcony room. I loved being able to see all the atmosphere of Port Douglas' famous Macrossan St from from balcony and to be able to duck out to the many shops or restaurants/cafes at any time. The owners were so friendly & welcoming. Highly recommended for solo travellers, people on business, friends and couples.

Excellent position right in town. Restaurants, pubs, supermarket, and the beach are all within a 5 minute walking distance radius. The managers were excellent, giving us advice on where to eat, as well as lending us some toys to keep our 18 month year old happy!

perfect except the internet was out the whole time during our stay

Very relaxing holiday with a great climate in a perfect location

Pip and Trev were wonderful hosts. Our apartment was spotless and the kitchen well equipped compared to other places we've stayed.

Anne was friendly and offered great advice about local activities and restaurants, without being intrusive. Location was ideally just out of the main hub but an easy walk to everything- 5 min to beach 10 to main street or marina. Which made for great walks and quiet nights ( apart from the local birdlife) The pool area was a beautiful relaxing space with plenty of shade.

Great place to stay while in Port Douglas with family.

Nice apartments with good facilities close to beach and restaurants

We had a truly wonderful experience and the hotel surpassed our expectations. Staff was very friendly and helpful. We would highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting the Cairns area.

Hotel owners were very friendly and helpful. They had good information for us and very willing to help with day bookings etc. The hotel is beautifully maintained, and it feels like stepping into paradise!
