Dirty doors around door knobs. Excessive soil, hair and dust under couch. Large roaches. No wifi for the 3 day stay. Room was changed yet paid for a room with full kitchen and oven and was given a microwave.

It was perfect for us close to the golf the staff couldn’t be more helpful. The grounds and pool was beautiful the apartment we had was extremely nice. The resort location was ideal close to everything and short distance away from the main drag.

Very friendly staff, a great location and easy access to town and facilities. A top up of the tea and coffee daily and towel changes over 4 days would have been good but other than that, no issues!

Extremely Disappointing
Our stay was disappointing 😞 we were significantly impacted by a large group of people smoking in the apartments below. We were unable to use our balcony because of the amount of smoke, or leave clothes outside. We reported to management, twice, we were met with 'you should of said something to them, thats what happens in the real world'. We were also informed that the people below were owners and that there was nothing management could do. Needless to say that we felt humiliated by the suggested solution to solve this issue and extremely unsupported as guests in the resort.

Dear Sherri. Please accept our sincere apologies.. Unfortunately, it is a difficult situation. Although we tried to discuss the issue with the owners below, we are not able to 'tell them what to do' in their own house. Once again, we are sorry you felt unsupported and your stay was disappointing as a result, it was certainly not our intention. Kind regards Liz

A short drive out of the heart of port Douglas but absolutely worth it. Similarly priced places were smaller - we had a 2 bed villa, kitchen - all the amenities we needed and would absolutely stay again. Fantastic for kids with the pools and tennis court. It felt like home.

The apartment was big enough for two people,and was clean, but there was no duvet only thin sheets(we have been to port Douglas 5th time and it was still a bit cold during the night)so we ended up using blanket from closet but my husband and my self has been scratching/getting rash everywhere all our holidays and still have rash on our body. I think the blanket wasn’t clean enough.or dusty.we had a very bad sleeping situation.won’t come back again.

We had the pool area to ourselves or few people for a lot of the time. The children loved the multiple pools and the pool toys that were around the pool area. You could hear other guests very easily though. I think as none of the windows had glass, only shutters and fly screens. This was the only negative really. Fridge was huge, coffee machine nice and comfy beds and pillows. Loved the large baths and nice towels

Nice place, nice room although a bit dated, all taps a little stiff, TV's very small, microwave went bang firsttime we tried it, almost fall through the couch, light sensor in loby had a mind of its own and kept coming on during the night, I think with a few bucks spent to update I would upgrade my rating. Nice and roomy though and staff very helpful and friendly

Amazing resort. Incredible pool. Comfortable rooms. Great staff. Convenient for golf course. Tavern nearby. If anything a bit out of town. But not too bad.

Just returned from a fabulous stay at paradise links. We were a group of 6 in 2 of the villas. The 2 bed villa had clearly been updated-new carpets upstairs, spotlessly clean, everything you could need for a few days away. Washer, dryer, iron, pans, all Crockery you could need. Lovely bathrooms with spa baths and nice showers. Beautiful balcony’s upstairs and downstairs with view of the golf course, stunning gardens and wildlife. Clean, fabulous beds. Pool was so warm, perfect for the kids and adults. Pool towels provided. So easy to park at the villas with a garage, great touch. Little bit out of town-no problem with a car. Close enough to enjoy the port and the town Only complaint was 4 nights wasn’t enough! Would come back in a heartbeat. Thank you paradise links, we feel refreshed and grateful for a holiday in your slice of paradise

Good resort however no wifi whilst we stayed which was being repaired. Also couldn’t even get mobile data due to phone reception in area so no internet in the rooms which made it hard when trying to organise tours restaurants etc we had to keep coming to reception to use their wifi hopefully it’s fixed soon as was extremely frustrating

No Wifi with Body Corporate issues Nice place however if you require Wifi in the privacy of your own place it may pay to look at other properties. Upon arrival (after hours) we found a letter in our room and one with our key advising that there was no Wifi and it had been down a few days and the contractor had been unable to fix the problem but Wifi was available at reception (where there’s a couple of bench seats) although completely unsuitable for work with the need to sprawl out files etc. I went to reception the following morning to see when the Wifi will be restored as I needed it for work however was advised it had been down a couple of weeks and that the problem laid with the inactivity from the Body Corporate. No alternative was offered besides sitting on a bench seat at reception which was impossible with files etc We had no other option but to connect to our expensive international data roaming and incur a bill in the hundreds. If you also have children who like playing games and communication on social media, like ours, then this place is not for you. If the Wifi had been down for weeks with no reconnection date on hand we should have been notified as this definitely would have dictated where we stayed! On arrival back home we received an email from the resort thanking us for staying there and offered us a discount code for our next stay, not as compensation just a repeat business offer. I chucked in some dates to see what the discount would be out of curiosity, al

Hi Leon. We note you stayed at Paradise Links Resort nearly 12 months ago. I am pleased to advise that an entire new wifi system was installed prior to Christmas 2022 just a couple of weeks after your stay. The resort wifi was taken out by a storm and was unable to be repaired at that time, requiring a whole new system. We ran a seprate modem at reception for our office which we amended for guests to be able to connect. While we understand it was not ideal, we made available whatever we could. Kind regards Liz

We stayed in the 2 bedroom villa which had everything you would want from a serviced apartment. Great facilities for people holidaying with or without kids. Staff were exceptionally friendly and went out of their way to meet special requests. Pools were amazing, lovely bbq area and well cared for gardens were a perfect way to spend a holiday. Highly recommend
