Cape York Peninsula Adventure Holidays

the beach view ws great

The resort is small and has a feel of luxury. The room was large and the woodwork in the room was gorgeous. The bathroom was well appointed and the veranda backed on to rainforest. The room felt very private and you are not overlooked by other guests. The pool area was very relaxing and the staff were very friendly. It felt like a private island after the day guests left at 4.30. Highly recommended, you would not be disappointed.

Best location in Palm Cove with beach access- older resort with good facilities and well maintained. We had a 2 bedroom beachfront unit on level 2. Bedroom one had an ensuite and large bed. Bedroom 2 had twin beds pushed together and a family bathroom across the hall. More suitable for parents and children. Tip for next renovation- We prefer a modern walk in shower in ensuite, rather than shower over bath provided in both bathrooms. Stairs can be annoying- no lifts- but older guests seemed to be managing. Ask for ground floor if you have mobility issues. Staff thankfully carried our bags for us. We enjoyed the vibe of peak tourist season and Nu Nu restaurant and walking to a selection of restaurants shops markets etc in Palm Coves beachside strip. There’s a small supermarket and a bottle shop walking distance behind the resort- or get a delivery from Woolies. Palm Cove is the nicest presented waterfront village in the area and Alamanda reflects this in their own presentation and styling. We 4 adults enjoyed our stay. Watching the life of the waterfront was entertaining- weddings, photo shoots, yoga every day.

Wish we could have stayed longer! Beautiful, comfortable boutique accommodations in a fantastic location!

The apartment was lovely, home from home. Just about everything you would need for a longer stay. Air con and fans in all rooms. Brilliant patio area and gardens and a lovely little pool with a small BBQ area. Washer and dryer in a laundry room. I can’t praise this place and the hosts, Stuart and Tony enough.

Facilities new, easy access to everything.

Great location and facilities

Friendly and helpful staff

Our second visit to Blue Lagoon, 13 years apart, and it was as good as we remember it. The suite is a good size and well-equipped, the bed very comfortable and the pool and other facilities there are excellent. Apart from some minor quibbles (freezer unit in the fridge was not working and limited supply of soap and dishwashing liquid), we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

The unit itself was very spacious and had everything we needed. However it’s in desperate need of an update and had a strange musty smell, even after running the fans and trying to air it out. There’s lots of restaurants within walking distance. The beach itself wasn’t great though, there’s a huge drop off so I definitely wouldn’t recommend it with kids or if you’re not a good swimmer.

Area is nice but the beach is average
