Port Douglas, Queensland Hotel Rooms at the Independent

Great staff - friendly - helpful - greeted with a smile! Clean rooms/resort Beautiful pool area & garden Location is about a 4 min walk into the main town - very good location Lots of info about local attractions & free booking to them via the staff there

After breaking my hip 2 weeks before christmas (3 weeks after booking our trip) I was a little apprehensive as to how I'd get on. I need not have worried. Macrossan House was easy walking distance to shops, restaurants and bars. Michelle the relief manager was very welcoming and offered to change our booking to the ground floor so that I didn't have to negociate stairs. Her knowlege of Port Douglas was fantastic. My husband and I will definitely go back in the near future.

We are very happy with this townhouse. Tania i Damian are very helpful. We recomend aTropicalnite to everyone!

Great location. Located on the main road, Macrossan. Able to walk to all shops and restaurants. One minute walk to the beach. Fred and Antonia were the most helpful, friendly hosts I have ever encountered. Rooms were very quiet and the pool area was very lush.

We stayed at Port Douglas Sands for a total of 7 nights and it was great. The value for money was fantastic and we enjoy being able to cook our own food. Being able to prepare meals and lunches from the comfort of your own unit was great. Breakfast was provided and was pretty basic but fine. A selection of breads and spreads for toast, as well as a few cereals,juices and tea and coffee. We were on the 2nd floor over looking the pool, tropical plants, palms and it was very peaceful and quiet out on the balcony (even with the main road into Port just on the other side of the resort). If you have a car it's in a great location. Only a 2 minute drive and your in the centre of Port and the same for the marina. Without the car its a 20 minute walk into town, but its pleasant and for a night out there are a few taxis driving around for a lift home at the end of the night if you're not up to the walk. The reception team were fantastic in helping us with anything we needed and we booked all our day activities through them and they even arranged our stay and activities for a night and a day up at Cape Tribulation. They really were great and full of ideas and knowledgeable of hidden gems away from the crowds. If you like to adventure and plan your own days and get some miles under the belt a car is a must. So many things to see, be it a 20 minute drive to Mossman gorge or 2 hrs up to Cape Trib, the Daintree and its lushous rainforest of secluded untouched beaches. We will be back!

Warm welcome by managers, rooms were fantastic. Highly recomend.

Nice and spacious. We had unit 1 and it had a swim on pool shared with four other units. Next to that we could also use the large pool. Kids loved it. Could to have the possibility to cook and a large fridge.
