Villa vacation rentals in Great Barrier Reef

You can’t get any better than this location it’s right on the beach. Also no kids if you need tranquility. There are are no condiments to cook with so keep that in mind if you are going to be cooking.

We had an amazing stay here. The property is really well equipped and the views out to the golf course and beyond are stunning. Bridget & Charles were great to deal with. Our favorite cafe in PD is a very short walk away. We’ll be back!

Excellent location, beautiful house , modern interior with all the rainforest charm . Gardens are absolutely stunning , so relaxing this was a great find for a family of 6 people in Cape Tribulation. Great communication with host.

We keep coming back to Robert and Rossi's villa because it is always spotlessly clean and fresh, and the hosts are always available when needed. We feel comfortable and secure in the villa, and the location is perfect for us. It is a home away from home whenever we visit Townsville.

I stayed here with two of my young children for two nights in winter. We had a lovely time exploring the lake on the kayaks (note there are no life jackets provided) and taking in the beautiful view at different times of day. There was everything we needed to cook, relax in front of the fire (make sure to grab some wood from the Yungaburra supermarket) and sleep comfortably. Claw foot bath was a treat for the kids with plenty of hot water during a cold period. The house was very clean and great size for a family of three or four. There is plenty to explore including a tree swing a short walk around the lake - and access to Netflix! Thanks for sharing your lovely home. Michael

Enjoyable,relaxing stay from start to finish, Ideal home for a family with many things for young ones to be entertained and occupied.

We spent three nights at the Botanical Ark Retreat and it was pure magic — completely immersed in the rainforest. The natural pool was refreshing and serene, and the entire place felt like a hidden slice of heaven, even better than the pictures. Alan was incredibly helpful, even meeting us on the way up as the location is quite remote. It was more off-the-grid than we expected, but absolutely worth it. Highly recommend for a peaceful nature escape.

Virginia’s place is amazing, so spacious and cosy. Only a 5 minute easy walk into town. Great layout for a large family, the deck out the back has plenty of seating and excellent for entertaining. Would definitely come back.

From the moment we booked we were looked after by everyone at platinum property. Communication was super efficient, helpful and friendly. All our needs were anticipated and communicated efficiently, even offering to organise day trips for our group. We were so glad we had such a seemless check in on the day with Fon meeting us at the outstanding property. Do not hesitate to use Platinum Property they are absolutely fantastic, they genuinely want you to have a great stay and nothing is too much trouble. I will definitely seek rentals through them before anywhere else in the future.

The house was amazing! it was so spacious, and had everything we needed and more. We loved the pool. The location was great for both the town and the beach. I'm only sorry we didn't stay longer.

Luxurious townhouse in the centre of magnificent Palm Cove. This place had everything we needed to make our family holiday special. Thanks Wayne for hosting our stay.

It was a great stay for a larger group. Never thought it would be this easy to handle . They were really nice and friendly. Five star ⭐️ for their hospitality and quality service.

When we booked we were a little concerned that the villa couldn’t live up to what we saw but oh boy, it was all that and more! Right from walking in through the spacious, entrance through to the the well appointed bed rooms and wonderfully structured living space we were delighted. As we stepped into each room we felt welcomed and at home. There were small touches like the honesty fridge, the board games, pool equipment, bbq and so much more than immediately left you with a complete sense of relaxation and belonging. There were useful guides and a restaurant menus which were helpful but not essential as the kitchen area was exactly what was needed for indoor or outdoor eating. The location was perfect. A short walk into the town centre which meant peace and quiet but no need for taxis or transfers. There is a short walk to either end of the street which then opens out on four mile beach - we highly recommend the sunset at the Garrick St sign end. A simply beautiful place.

beautiful home with stunning views. bed were really comfortable and everything we needed was provided. communication was excellent, and we'll definitely be back again.

Amazing stay, was everything we hoped for and more, the chef was incredible, every meal was absolutely beautiful. Such a special place to stay, thanks to all the staff for such a memorable stay. So relaxing and peaceful, a hidden gem in the Whitsundays well worth a visit !

I would say this is one of the most extraordinary properties in Australia. Everything was just beautiful… both inside and out. We all enjoyed the total privacy, abundant space and the high quality amenities and conveniences. Any questions were answered within minutes. I can’t wait to come back!

We couldn’t be more happy with our stay! When we say this house was pristine we mean it, the entire home is beautiful, great quality amenities to use, little things like big bath sheets for towels, having washing machine pods and dishwasher pods available, all cooking utensils were top notch, the fridge with little bits and pieces were exactly what we needed when we first arrived. The kids loved the pool, the property itself is in a great location to duck up to port Douglas or into cairns with some fantastic restaurants at trinity beach! Andrea and Mark were so helpful with an early checkin for us so we could be settled before our event, super responsive and awesome hosts! It’s a 10 stars from us! When we visit again we would love to stay here! Thank you Andrea and Mark ✨

Awesome host, made sure we had everything needed in preparation for the cyclone and subsequent flooding. Communication prior and during our stay was very good. The home was an awesome choice for our large family with plenty of space for everyone. Once all the rain had past the children had a ball playing tennis and creating games outside in the well kept grounds (the care taker was out immediately cleaning up the property etc). Highly recommend this property

We had a family weekend here with adult kids and grandkids - what a great place for us all to come together, but also have private space for everyone - we just about lived in the pool, played board games in the pool house and hung out in the main house! Wonderful weekend ❤️👌

This is a lovely air bnb! Home is in a great location only minutes walk to four mile beach and there is a supermarket just a couple of minutes drive away. Easy checkin process. Wendy and Paul were in communication throughout the booking and provided very helpful tips throughout our stay on restaurants and things to do. We would definitely stay again. Thank you!

Really nice place to chill out and relax at. Quiet neighbourhood with pretty much no traffic or people passing by. Huge kitchen is you want save a few dollars eating out all the time. We had breakfast there each morning and had a few BBQ's by the pool at night. Tonnes of fridge space for drinks and food as well. Kitchen had everything you could need with utensils and equipment. Bedrooms were great. Each one is airconditioned and was very welcome after spending a day out in the sunny tropical weather. Everyone in our family slept very well. You will need a car though. There is a biggish shopping centre at Smithfield for groceries, but nothing within walking distance really. There is a restuarant down near the boat harbour which is within walking distance, and we went to once and was okay, but we went down to Trinity beach several times and there are some great places down there. All in all, really enjoyed the stay. Really didn't want to leave when the time came to go. Great pool.
