First family holiday with a 1.5 year old and this place was perfect. Spacious 2 bedroom unit, everything we needed to cook and keep up with washing. Pool was a hit with the little one as well as the wildlife in the beautiful gardens. Management of resort were great to communicate with. Would stay here again!

First time travelling on my own and the staff here made it feel safe and secure. Front reception welcomed me with kindness and showed me local areas for food and coffee while I was there. I was greeted with lots of information on the area. The apartment was beautifully kept and clean. Loved staying here and would definitely recommend to friends and would stay here again.

We stayed toward the back end of the property and it was lovely and quiet, great sized 2 bedroom unit overlooking the tennis court and some of the pool. The pool was amazing, large and perfect for my 2 children, 6 and 10. It also had a good sized undercover area where you could sit under to keep an eye on them, otherwise there was a large amount of grassed area with lounges and umbrellas. Even though the units were all full, it definitely didn't seem overcrowded or noisy. Often we had the pool all to ourselves. we had to pay to hire tennis court, and even though it was a very small fee, it would have been good it that was included as part of your stay. It was a great family friendly accommodation and we would return here again. We had a car, so that made it easy to travel the 5-6 minute drive into town for meals or for day trips. So if you plan to stay here without a car, there isn't a lot within waking distance. Overall, we were very happy and had a very enjoyable stay.

The apartment we stayed in was pretty old and tired (old wobbly kitchen tap, broken dryer, funny small in the bedrooms) but it did have everything we needed and the staff were really helpful and friendly.

This was disappointing. This unit was not what was shown on the website - a complete misrepresentation! It was not what we thought we were getting at all. It was very run down and in need of repair in some areas.

The apartment is in need of some refurbishment. The bathroom door in particular is in urgent need of replacement. There are so many apartments available for holiday makers it is increasingly competitive and attention to detail is important to remain competitive.

Great place to stay in Port Douglas
We stayed in a 3 bedroom apartment. The complex was quiet and very close to everything. The apartment was very clean, extremely spacious and well equipped. Check in was very easy and we were given a late checkout that was very much appreciated. Reception staff were very friendly and obliging. I would highly recommend this resort/apartment for a stay.

Good location, reasonable price
Note: this property actually does have a front desk, despite what the description says. They also leave the keys out for you if you are checking in late etc. Good location, short drive to port douglas city area. Overall was happy with the stay, however wasn't the greatest in terms of cleanliness ie carpets had stains, place was quite old. There weren't enough utensils (eg only 5 spoons) and no basic items like salt and pepper. Also should mentioned the apartments are not serviced, so no daily cleans or daily towel replacements. The staff are very friendly, the place is quite and very close to the beach. Also has foxtel, so plenty of TV channels to watch when unwinding at night. The overall experience was good, would recommend this place!

Great place.
10 min leisurely walk to beach which has fantastic sunrises. 10min walk to a pub that serves delicious meals and you'll get value for money. We ate a meal at the habour which was OK but very pricey and the wine was extremely expensive. We would go back to the pub anytime. The managers at Nimrod are friendly, very helpful and the best tourist guides. The accommodation was clean, spacious and very comfortable. We had five adults in a three bedroom unit. The extra toilet was appreciated. The one bathroom worked for us. I will definitely be going back.

Great holiday on a very comfortable budget
We cant fault Nimrod at all. Apartment was perfectly equiped for self catered 10 day stay. #1 for grown ups: Beds r super comfy. All was clean. Sure, it's not a modern Sheraton/Pullmans, but it's far more relaxing to let your children roam free in. Pool and tennis court were perfect for our active 8 and 10 yr olds. It was quiet in that guests were pretty conscientious as sound carries- apart from us! Close to beach, supermarket and wildlife park. We had a car which made life easy. TV access was welcome as let the children beg out a bit. Actually, Nimrod helped make our family holiday the best in years.

Value for money.
The management were extremely friendly and more than helpful and informative. The unit was clean and OK in general, but a bit tired. Also not all buttons on the TV remote worked and the clothes dryer was extremely noisy. Would be great if there was more crockery for our use. A heated spa would have been better too-but that just might be north Qld.

Not such a great experience
Unfortunately our unit no 25 wasn,t very clean and everything in it was old and dated including the furniture,artwork appliances and all the crockery etc. lt did have some major problems that could have been very dangerous to anyone staying there. l,m not going to say to much about the experince of staying there due to the the response of the managers. When we left after 6 nights we told Sue all about the problems she said we should of mentioned it beforehand and we would have been moved immediately . We naturally thought all the units were the same. l booked this unit because of the great reviews on Wotif. However after looking at all the problems Sue sent me an email to let me know that the unit was getting a complete makeover the cleaners were spending the day in it plus all the old worn out things were all thrown out and the builders were fixing the problems that l outlined. Not many managers do this most don,t care thinking we,ll never see them again anyway. She offered us 2 free nights in a deluxe unit which was nice, l would like to experience a stay there is better conditions. The pool area is lovely very well maintained and the unit complex is nice and quiet.

Average overall
Disappointed with apartment compared to pictures online. Room had room for 6 to sleep but only 4 chairs in lounge area and kitchen was also not equipped for the number of people staying in the apartment. For example, in a six person 3 bedroom apartment there were only 5 plates and small saucepans/cooking equipment which isn't very practical for a larger group. Very nice pool and staff though.
