Silkari Lagoons Port Douglas
We chose an inexpensive room for a short stay. It was small and fairly dark and not a good example of the poolside accommodation. It did suit our needs.

Coral Sands Resort
Great stay, could hear the live music they have on a Sat and Sun from the pub on the corner which was great out on the balcony. Pool was great for the kids and great location to walk out to the main strip where there’s a playground on the foreshore and restaurants. Will stay again one day!
