Cape York Peninsula Luxury Holidays

Lovely spot right on the beach front. Sea view and overlooking lovely garden area and pool.

Had a wonderful 10 night stay at Shantara. We loved being so close to Macrossan st and the beach, while the pool was an amazing end to each day. The Hotel was peaceful, beautiful and quiet. As is normal for Far North Queensland, there is not everyday cleaning service but we don’t use that anywhere anyway. Plenty of parking, but if you didn’t bring a car everything is walking distance with shuttle bus options for longer journeys. The only black mark of the stay were our neighbours on the pool deck room who were obviously upset at having a queer couple nearby, so disappointing in 2026 but not the Hotels fault at all.

Beach view what you see is what you get

Felt a little dated but proximity made up for everything.

Great central place to stay with the wharf very close and the casino just across the road. Rooms that have been renovated are lovely, the ones that haven't been are very outdated and damaged and even though we booked 2 the same had different size beds, tiny TV's, no balcony furniture, bath in one and not the other, and then smelled mouldy. Staff were very obliging and upgraded our rooms due to the condition and smell to the amazing rooms. Buffet breakfast was nice, lots to choose from and always been refreshed and refilled. Parking was an extra daily fee, and you can go in and out away times as you needed. The main foyer was clean and inviting with a tourist desk to book if required. The gym was basic but usable. Pool was very clean with loads of deck chairs.

Awesome location and beautiful view of ocean. Walking around at night, some areas have little to no lightning. Otherwise, highly recommend.

Beautiful well thought out property and wonderful pools. The staff in the office are just lovely.

Lovely spot right on the beach front. Sea view and overlooking lovely garden area and pool.

Lovely large clean apartment with all facilities and equipment. Would highly recommend.
