Palm Cove5 nights5.0 star property8.8/10 - Excellent (1,001 reviews)"Rooms could do with a refresh - peeling wallpaper. A few staff were pleasant and helpful but overall rude and uninterested. When we checked out all we got was ‘that’s you’ no did you enjoy your stay. Food offering at Beach Bar was not great and of poor quality - did not try breakfast or dinner. Overall okay but could easily be a lot better."Reviewed November 6, 2026Roundtrip • Melbourne (MEL) - Cairns (CNS)MEL - CNS • Nonstop CNS - MEL • Nonstop$808$635found 21 hours agoper traveler - Peppers Beach Club

However, we were told we would have a sea view but what we got was a view of the roof of the pub below. Also couldn’t get anywhere near the restaurant as there was live bands on so every table was reserved, surely the guests should get first refusal?"Reviewed November 8, 2026Roundtrip • Sydney (SYD) - Proserpine (PPP)SYD - PPP • Nonstop PPP - SYD • Nonstop$1,146$936found 20 hours agoper traveler - BIG4 Whitsunday Islands Holiday Park

"At first we were put in a room that should never be offered to anyone that pays to stay here it was filthy old and falling apart.... No one who pays for apartment/hotel should ever be put in a room like this. I was very surprised with this. However I went to reception and they were absolutely helpful and put us in a better and cleaner room, the rest of our stay was absolutely perfect we loved it!! Just one suggestion that the ceiling fans should be cleaned they were all coated in thick dust....
