Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    This is a lovely little timber church sitting in front of the water. It was a very hot day but there was a nice breeze coming from the water side. Originally built in 1880 there was a service going on so only had a quick look inside, it was a Sunday. Easy to find on the foreshore, nearby there was a big market

    During our travels in Australia, we visited many Aboriginal Art galleries. Ngarru was a standout for the way their pieces are displayed, the expertise of their staff, and their prices.

    Entering the courthouse you get quite a start to see a real courtroom with life sized figures representing the people who were part of the trial that took place. You sit in the original jury seats and watch a video of the trial and at the end consider your verdict. There are also interesting photos and information about the Chinese gold miners in Port Douglas, the first marine biologists at Low Isles, and also information about the Battle of the Coral Sea.

    Port Douglas is about an hours drive from Cairns.
    All the way you drive along mountains on one side and ocean on the other side. It reminded me of Great Ocean Drive.
    The town has beautiful palm trees and their information centre has all the information about the surrounding of this World Heritage Listed place.
    Accommodation can be from backpacks to luxurious Mirage Resorts.
    Lots of eateries and coffee places.
    I really enjoyed this place.

    Our driver was named Brian and on both occasions he was polite, friendly & courteous. Most importantly the team are responsive, on time and above all professional. We have no hesitation in recommending or using Cairns Private Transfers again.

    I wanted to get something special for my mum & dad while on holiday from NZ in Port Douglas.
    Niramaya Spa was recommended by
    Emily @ The Daintree shop information centre.
    I can’t thank the lovely lady who answered my call & fitted my parents in .
    My folks are humble & hardworking they have had a few massages etc over the years however both said this was the BEST EVER,
    Professional they were not made to feel rushed & were treated so very special.
    It was an hour massage & i added a half hour facial . At $ 590 this is on the expensive side however I was grateful my parents absolutely loved it & it was an incredible experience.
    Thank you to the spa team very highly recommended x

    Excellent deep tissue massage. Gentle though firm hands took care of my shoulder and neck pain. Highly recommended experience.

    Fabulous massage with Nicole! My husband also had high praise for his massage. We each booked 90 minutes. We like different pressures and both of us were extremely happy. The Spa is small but extremely clean and very comfortable. We have monthly or more massages at home. This was a great experience and we’re so glad we booked it.

    I love this place, has to be the most sophisticated place in town.
    Love the vibe & the music, could spend hours looking at the posters on the wall.
    Ordered a negroni, more than happy!
    Went back later for a nightcap.
    The actual bar itself looks like it has escaped from some very exclusive old club in Sydney.
    Love to know it’s history & how it got there.
    I should mention that we are both in our seventies & hardly described as cool but we both loved it!

    I LOVE this shop! There’s always so many unique, creative, beautiful, hilarious things to look at. It really is FUN stuff! The staff are always keen for good banter and helpful tips when you’re looking for just the right thing; whether it’s for you, for your home, or for a gift. It’s my go to spot for all things that commemorate Port Douglas, especially with the option to have mugs, glasses, magnets, photo frames, and more totally personalized! We’ve purchased many things over the years due to that extra special touch. They’re quick to help, when possible, if your in a gift giving bind as well 😁
    Definitely a must visit spot for a bit of cheeky fun and gorgeous finds 🤩
