Villa San Michele, Port Douglas

We had a very spacious 2 bedroom apartment. It's right on the main drag but it's set back from the street (not that there's much road noise anyway) with a large courtyard flanked by two swimming pools. It's not your traditional hotel so you don't get daily cleaning service but that's fine. We had a kitchen so it let us buy some groceries at the local grocery store (a legit full sized grocery store is only a couple blocks away) and keep everyone fed and happy throughout our stay (4 nights).

They provide beach towels that you can take to the beach or on your snorkeling trip so that's a nice minor extra.

It's a short walk to the dock where the boats depart and all of the shopping and restaurants are within walking distance.

The only area for improvement is that the room was rather dimly lit.

Location is perfect - right in the heart of town so everything (including beach) is a 0-5 min walk. Rooms are quite tight and one room had a bit of stench. Bathrooms looked renovated and clean.

The location was great- right in the middle of town, but in a quiet community!
We really should have chosen a larger room for the 3 of us- it was a bit tight for 3 adults in the 1 br apt.

We loved this place.
