We stayed at a number of B&Bs on our recent trip to FNQ, and I would not hesitate in recommending Coral Sea Retreat to any traveller. The warm welcome on arrival made us feel at home straight away. Our room was comfortable and the outdoor eating area was just beautiful with views over the Coral Sea and the most comfortable... More

We stopped off for just one night in the Treehouse on the way from Cairns to Cape Trib - should have stayed longer. A very warm welcome, great breakfast and a wonderful setting with beautiful views. Nice, comfortable two bedroom treehouse/apartment - really felt like we were in the rainforest. Good for families.

We stayed at the Treehouse and loved it. The furnishings and decor are unfussy and simple, but the point of this place is not what is inside but what is around you outside. The view from the accommodation level itself was lovely, and from the private lounge above your room, well, just spectacular. The three hostesses were friendly, warm, helpful... More

Unfortunately we only stayed one night in this magical setting as we were returning the car and staying in Port Douglas for the following nights but it was enough to instantly relax us...I intentionally woke up early the next morning just so I could plant myself on the chairs of the viewing platform to "take it in" as much as...

Denise, Marie and their family make this place what it is - very comfortable, welcoming and thoroughly enjoyable. Fabulous breakfasts in the tree house overlooking the rain forest and ocean. We also enjoyed a pizza night and full dinner there - well worth it if you are exhausted at the end of the day - which we were. Wonderful people... More

Rather than repeat the great comments in previous reviews which are accurate, I will explain why I give it a 4 rather than 5. * Our room #1 was nice but on the small side with no good place other than the floor to place suitcases. * There is a $5 charge for the internet which is only available on...

A magical location, where the place and its owners make you feel totally relaxed and at home from the start. The food was superb and probably the best meals of all that we enjoyed on a 5 week trip. The breakfasts are something else with fresh fruit from their garden and other delights - their library seemed to be full... More

Lots to see and do in this area, but we liked the B&B so much we didn't want to leave. The view is spectacular and the garden, pool and open-air tree-top lounge is made in heaven. Marie is the most congenial and helpful hostess and a superb cook. (And she has no problem cooking gluten and dairy-free!) Our room was... More

We enjoyed the lovely setting with its panoramic view of the Coral Sea, the warm hospitality of the host family, and my partner says that he is spoiled forever for breakfasts. Order anything that includes the homegrown tomatoes and fresh herbs -- the flavor is spectacular. In addition, Denise and Marie clearly love preparing food and presenting it beautifully. Breakfast...

We had a wonderful stay at the coral sea. Denise, Marie and the gang were great hosts. Comfortable room and great outdoor living spaces. The breakfasts were a highlight of our day - the changing menu and great choices each day. Wonderful fresh fruit. Also great place for dinner for a quite night after a busy day. Very good value...
