Central Plaza Port Douglas

Where to start – there are so many excellent elements to this apartment. Firstly, it is in a great location, able to walk to the beach and to the shops and restaurants. We had a hire car but did not use it in town at all as we love to walk everywhere. Secondly, the managers are so friendly, helpful and accommodating which made our weeklong stay very pleasant. We had a three bedroom renovated apartment for our family of two adults and three teenage boys. It was spacious, clean and comfortable. The beds were great, we had a full-size fridge & appliance which were great for self catering, a washing machine and lots of room for everyone to relax. We had undercover parking on site which was great to be able to park in shade on hot days. Our apartment had a lovely outdoor area that was private and secure. The apartment worked brilliantly and was used non-stop during the day, we relied on fans at night (our preference) and stayed cool. And then we come to the pool – it was a highlight of our stay! Large, clean, with lovely tropical plants around it, it was such a great place to cool off on a hot day and even to have a swim after dinner as it is open until 930pm. The spa was slightly warmer and lovely to sit in when the bubbles were running. Highly recommend Central for an affordable, comfortable apartment close to everything that you need. We would definitely stay again.

Really friendly and knowledgeable owners with plenty of time for a chat to recommend local gems. Apartment was well stocked with utensils/pans/dinnerware. Living area spacious and comfortable for down time and the bed was very comfortable.

The best thing about this apartment is its great location. Our family could walk everywhere we wanted to in Port Douglas - the Main Street was just 10 minutes away. The place itself is a little worn, but it is clean. They provide enough laundry detergent to do a couple of loads of laundry. They also provided beach towels which we appreciated. The kitchen had the basics to cook meals. Overall, I’d recommend this place due to the location and the extra space.
