Top Cow Bay Hotel Reviews

By The Sea Port Douglas

8/10 Good

"It’s proximity to the beach and Main Street."

Sheraton Grand Mirage Resort, Port Douglas

10/10 Excellent

"I arrived for my milestone birthday and the hotel was so generous and provided me with a bottle of champagne and birthday cakes. What an amazing thought. The entire trip with all of my friends and family was amazing. We couldn't have asked for better weather. We will always come and stay at The Grand Sheraton Mirage. The breakfast was outstanding including the other restaurants and swim up bar"

Oaks Port Douglas Resort

8/10 Good

"Great resort, with a lovely swimming pool, great buffet breakfast, bar and restaurant. Easy 30min walk to the town centre, or there is a cheap and quick shuttle ride in, cost was only $5 per person each way. The staff are all lovely and welcoming. Our room we had was a one bedroom pool view room, which was spacious and clean, but did have a shower over the bath, which isn't great. Would definitely recommend this resort for couples or families."

Le Cher Du Monde

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic central location in short walking distance to everything inc marina, shops, restaurants, Four Mile Beach, coast walk. Large unit space made our 12 night stay very comfortable. Our room was located above a cafe but thankfully very quiet at night: Red Kitchen is a great cafe and convenient for breakfast or lunch, but a pity we didn't know about the 10% guest discount until our last day! Parking in the hotel car park is very limited so when full, we managed to always find parking on the street outside the accommodation. Sink plug in kitchen needs replacing (no seal) and plug in bathroom sink doesn't work so shaving means running a tap. Couldn't hear other guests which was great. Loved the balcony and the swimming pool. A very easy, relaxed stay with great amenity and efficient service."

Meridian Port Douglas - Adults only

8/10 Good

"The motel was perfectly positioned for access to amenities, restaurants and sights while being away from the street noise. We thankfully upgraded to a one bedroom apartment which was beautiful. My sister stayed in a poolside room and couldn’t open her doors or windows due to people looking in from the pool. I would stay again in the room we had. Very nice and lovely staff."

Regal Port Douglas

10/10 Excellent

"Can park under building but parked out in street plenty of room. Safe to walk around at night. Close to great food n drinks n music entertainment. Room spacious and everything you could want. Toaster, plates, knives, forks, jug. Big spa bath n day bed on verandah overlooking beautiful pool. Great if u don't have trouble with stairs as no lifts. Even found an ice machine n pool views as you walk through foyer. Will definitely be back."
