Northern Australia Luxury Holidays

Really clean & helpful staff

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.

The hotel is desperately in need of renovation. However the location is good which is all it has going for it.

Beach view what you see is what you get

Very conveniently located. Not great as a solo traveller. Left for a considerable length of time at the end of each mean whilst couples and groups were attende to. Too busy and food overpriced

Terrific location for river taxis, restaurants and Southbank.

The lactation good But we surprise no room clean and the The bed and pillows not good at all and shower in bathroom too small And pricey for nothing

Great property. The check in process was a bit lengthy - not enough reception staff.

Check in staff were fantastic, very friendly and helpful. Hotel is undergoing some renovations, but well managed. Our room had a nice view over the beach and everything worked. Only comment is water pressure is low in the shower and basin.

Always an excellent stay! Just book it!

Rooms were very spacious, perfect breakfast, lovely staff. Pool facility was basic woth some tiles needing repair. The lifts location was very far from lobby.
