The no-minor policy created a relaxing resort atmosphere. All the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful; I'm truly grateful. The excellent service also attracts many seniors to celebrate their annual wedding anniversaries here. Overall, I felt very relaxed staying here, and the food was good. If I come to Cairns again, I would definitely stay here again.

The facilities in the house are really old and not worth the price, but it's the only way to go for a tourist destination. In addition, there is no service. The guests have to carry their luggage by themselves from the time they check in to the time they check out. The surrounding environment is impeccable, but the dining options are definitely not as many as in Cairns.

Everything about our stay was amazing — from the friendly staff who go above and beyond, to the incredible inclusions. It was a truly relaxing experience, and the bed was so comfortable. The food was delicious as well.

The inclusions for the stay here are amazing, particularly the yoga and cocktail making classes. The food is exceptional from breakfast, pool side snacks to a three course dinner. Fresh made juices and sorbets with daily fresh flavours. The staff are engaging, interesting and passionate about their work, happy to help with your every need.

Returned to the scene of the crime, (1st Year Wedding Anniversary), at the Reef House in Palm Cove. Had not changed much in a year as you would expect. Room was spacious with 4 poster bed & outside balcony with fridge, etc. They provide us a complimentary bottle of Champagne for our special occasion. :) 3 lovely pools to choose from including a Magnesium pool (quite warm), a large "normal" pool & a hot tub. Managed to spend a bit of time around them & utilised the barman to serve us food & drinks. Canapes (included) each day at 5pm & we also enjoyed a massage on one occasion (voucher also included in overall accommodation package). Breakfast (included each day) was a lovely al a carte selection with great outdoor/indoor seating looking out to the ocean. We used the bicycles to cycle to Clifton Beach along the cycle path which was very pleasant. We also had a wine appreciation session booked (through the RH) but opted out in preference to hang out by the pool. We had done this on a previous visit & found it a nice social event. All in all would visit again given the chance as it is in a lovely location with great facilities.

The Reef House is centrally located in Palm Cove& is the most welcoming & friendly accommodation that we have ever stayed in. Nothing is too much trouble for the delightful staff. There were many extra included activities in our stay such as wine appreciation, cocktail making, art classes & the evening ‘happy hour’ with punch & canapés was a great way to meet other guests. Our room was comfortable & clean with a lovely terrace. We’ve come away feeling very happy & relaxed & looking forward to returning.

Thoroughly relaxing, with fun and great food. The staff were always warm and friendly. We were welcomed as if we were coming home. The everyday events, like the 3pm sorbets by the pool, the evening punch and canapes, the cocktail classes and more added to the many things to do. And while by the pool the poolside butler service was great if you wanted a drink or a snack or a great lunch.
