Guest Reviews

Hi Barry
Just a message to convey to you just how much we enjoyed your location and our accommodation in Apt 734A.
Palm Cove was the best part of our holiday and we enjoy the environment, outlook, comfort and facilities at the apt.
We very much hope we can return again and even make it perhaps a visit every year rather than every 2nd year as at present.
Best regards Gordon and Pam Miles

Hello Allan,
Just a note to say how much we enjoyed our stay at Palm Cove, and that we very much appreciated your generosity re the additional night.
You have an excellent property in a perfect location. As the California Governator once said: “I'll be back”.

Dear Barry
I meant to contact you earlier, but you know what it's like getting back to work after a holiday....
I just wanted to say how much I enjoyed my stay in the hotel room at Palm Cove. Despite not seeing the sun for a single one(!) of the 9 days I was there, I couldn't have been happier with the accommodation. The security, the quiet location, the "glimpses" of the sea, the lovely large balcony and having everything there (umbrella, toaster etc) was just great.
I'm not sure whether there's an exhaust fan in the bathroom - if there is I couldn't hear it.
I've been recommending it to friends as a great place to stay. Do you have 2/3 bedroom apartments on your list as well? I had occasion to speak to the person who does the cleaning (name?) and found her very friendly and helpful too. All in all a very positive experience. Thank you.
Kind regards Eva Colin

Hi Barry
Just a quick note to say many thanks. We had a fabulous break at Palm Cove and loved our accommdation and the resort. It was so tranquil and relaxing and your attention to detail is terrific, we were wanting for nothing plus Lee was extremely hospitable.

Many thanks for letting us take advatage of the late check out time. My health is not too good so that certainly made travelling much easier.

I'm sure we'll be back.
Kind regards Jules Jones

I have travelled quite extensively and was extremely impressed with the accommodation and the way everything was handled from the booking arrangements through to the accommodation and its presentation for us upon arrival. It was terrific and made our trip very easy (we really didnt want to come home!!). Thanks again,
Jules

Hi Barry,
Just a short note to thank you and let you know that we had a fantastic holiday at Palm Cove. The apartment was absolutely beautiful. We met Lee who is also a lovely lady. Everything went without a hitch and we couldn't have been happier. We defineately want to come back next year, so will be in touch later again this year.
Thanks again,
Much appreciated Di & Les Heane

Good afternoon Inger
Just wanted to thank you for your excellent service r.e our recent stay at your amphora apartment. The apartment was fantastic, the cot was great, Lee was lovely — and as usual, Palm Cove was very good to us. We look forward to another visit asap!

Dear Barry,
Just a short note to say how much we enjoyed our stay in Palm Cove. Our holiday started well because as we entered the complex and then the apartment both were even better than we had expected from the web site information. We were very pleased with the standard of accommodation and its location.
Next month we will begin to arrange our holiday for 2008 and our intention is to return to Palm Cove again for 3 weeks for the last week in September and the 1st 2 in October. We would very much like to stay in the apartment again and will contact you in the next few weeks to see if this is possible.
Thanks, Mike & Steph

Dear Barry,
We just wanted to thank you for the wonderful accommodation and the experience of Amphora. For us everything went to plan and our expectation of the apartment, the resort and Palm Cove was more than we expected, fantastic experience. All the links you sent were of great assistance to plan our stay. To quote my wife "perfect location, perfect resort and the best apartment in the resort." Well done.
Kind Regards, Gary & Gaynor Turner

Good afternoon Barry,
I just wanted to let you know that my parents loved Palm Cove and said their accommodation was fantastic. They actually preferred Palm Cove to Port Douglas. My husband and I are now discussing when we might make the trip with our children, so we will get in touch with you again and book the whole two bedroom... Thanks for all of your help.

Hi Inger,
We had a fabulous time in your apartment, which we believe to be in one of the best locations of the resort as we had the glimpse of the ocean through the trees and yet was private from most of the other rooms in the resort. We travel quite a few times a year and usually I find things that annoy me in an apartment but never had that problem with yours. The only thing we ourselves and quite a few other guests where surprised at was the lack of a BBQ area in the resort. When you are away that long you can get sick of restuarants every night and no one wanted to go to the beach to cook one.( might pay to mention to management as I'm sure they could find an area for one.) The grounds are impeccably maintained and your cleaner is a delight. We will be sure to mention your apartment to friends and I did tell others at the resort to go directly with you in future and told them how to find you.
Thanks again, Kim Mac Donald

Hi Inger and Barry,
Hi Inger and Barry. Just wanted to say we had a great time at your place in Palm Cove. The accommodations were wonderful and the facilities at the resort were fantastic. The resort pool was clearly the best in Palm Cove and the family really enjoyed it. We will be back!!
Sincerely, Tim

Just back in Ballarat and wanted to let you know that your glorious apartment provided us with the most spectacular of holidays. It is really a magnificently appointed apartment and we loved the fact that we had both lagoon pool and beach views from the balconies. The girls couldn't decide between the pool or the beach... and we couldn't decide where to have the next cocktail or eat the next fabulous meal - such choices! It was truly relaxing... Many thanks for your efficient and professional e-mails, directions, etc. We'll definitely be back…

Hi Barry,
Just a quick email to thank you for the great apartment at Palm Cove. We had a fantastic holiday. We checked out quite a few other apartments and we believe yours is close to tops. It has a great position, almost new, clean and all facilities. Lee was very accommodating and it was good to have 2.00 check out.
I have attached a couple of photos. You probably have hundreds. I have recommended your apartments to a number of people and we will start saving for another break next year.
Regards, Doug Smith

Hi Barry. Just letting you know that we really enjoyed your apartment at Palm Cove so thank you very much. We will remember you for future reference. We had five days of beautiful sunshine and we really enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere of Palm Cove. Coming down to Sydney's faster pace last weekend was a real shock to the system!!

Hi Barry,
We had a wonderful time. The apartment and resort were lovely. The kids had a magnificent time in the pool - we could barely get them out for their meals! We bumped into Lee a couple of times and she was lovely - service with a smile! We would not hesitate to recommend your apartment to other friends and family.
Thank you and kind regards,
Val

Just a quick note to say we had a most enjoyable break at your apartment in Palm Cove. The view was an unexpected bonus, and having breakfast every morning on the balcony overlooking the Coral Sea is sorely missed! We had friends staying at the Outrigger Beach Club - and I have to say it was lovely to come back to the Amphora pool in peace and quiet with so many spots in sun or shade to laze away the afternoon.
We hope we'll be back!

Dear Barry & Lesley,
Thankyou for renting us your lovely apartment, we had 5 days of perfect weather,a most enjoyable break.
There are a couple of apartments for sale in the resort,you may wish to advise me on figures/viability etc.
By the way,we liked Palm Cove better than Port Douglas.
