A great family holiday spot. Pool area is amazing, it’s a decent size and heated! Area around the pool is clean and plenty of places to relax poolside. Staff here are lovely and helpful. Our villa was very comfortable, all the basics you need to have some home cooked meals. Our bedding was comfortable and bathrooms were clean. The gardens around the Villa could be maintained a little better but that’s about it. I’d suggest having a rental car as walking into town is a bit far. There is a beach less than 1km walk but would suggest the beach area near the main strip- the lifeguard patrols that area. We will definitely come back here again.

Reef Villas for the price was perfect for us. Quiet, not too far from town.
Villa was clean and nicely presented, bed comfy area surrounding villa clean.
It is an old resort that could do with more $$ spent on entry and the back villas.
The pool area was Fabulous, We enjoyed relaxing each afternoon in the warm waters.

Nice family friendly location
Great location in Port Douglas. I think some of the villas can be hit or miss, but our Coral villa was nice for a family of four. I did miss an instruction on how to use the microwave/oven/airfryer... but details. Great to have the option to wash and dry clothes. Pool was really great!

We stayed in Villa 43 and it was perfect. Two bedrooms, two bathrooms, covered parking, laundry and two outdoor sitting areas. The pool area is absolutely incredible. We arrived after reception closed but we just called the number uding the phone on the wall and they gave us the code to the lock box that had an envelope with our keys and all the resort information. I will definitely stay here again.

The only little issue was my travelling partner was unable to access SBS On Demand or iview (but that may have been due to our "technology IQ"

We stayed for just one night. Pool was amazing loved it. Our apartment could have done with a makeover. Very old inside, broken things, not working, very little hot water, door missing.
But the beds where comfy and the upstairs bathroom had been done up.

We had an awesome stay here. The girls lace was spotless. The surroundings were clean and quiet. We had some maintenance issue with one of the light switch, which when mentioned to the receptionist, was tended to very promptly.
My only qualm is that the restaurant on the premises had absolutely no vegetarian options on the menu except for chips. Not even a Margherita pizza, in their pizza menu.

Not really a 4 star hotel but clean
The front office is hardly open and has very basic amenities and food options. The apartments are quite dated and could do with a touch up. Overall quite clean though. The pool is lots of fun for kids. They request that you empty your bins and do your dishes prior to leaving.

Truly an excellent place, the owners didnt hesistate to put the best building materials into the villa. There are at least 5 to 6 towel hangers in bathroom. No stinginess there. The architect did an amazing job making a 2 BR villa look big, and on our first entry we said "wow". The swimming pool was special with lots of little spa like sections, all connected to main section, people can sit around and chat with separate privacy. An 11 am check out time gave us a lovely relaxed last morning. We still checked out at 930 am as habit, but knowing it's 11 am, we didn't feel any rush packing up. An 11am check out time for such a large 2 storey 2BR villa to clean before next customers'check-in at 2 pm, this really gives all the other hotels/motels a tough act to follow.
Port Douglas is absolutely stunning. The local area - bars, beaches, reefs and rainforest are incredible.
Like lots of other reviewers have commented, the villas at Reef resort are privately owned - so it's a bit of a lottery re whether you have a well maintained or run down villa.
What I liked: The pool at Reef Resort is awesome and the staff were fabulous too. I would give these elements 4 stars.
What I didn't like: Our villa was quite run down, lounges were quite dirty and furnishing were very basic. No exhaust fans in the bathrooms, no oven, no basic supplies like a cutting board! I would give our villa 2 stars.
So overall 3 stars for a mixed experience.

Perfectly relaxing
Reef Resort Villas is an excellent place to stay in Port Douglas. The Villas are large (two bedroom), clean, self-contained (including two bathrooms and a well equipped laundry) and have a 'wow factor'. Everything required was provided in a fully equipped kitchen; the lounge was comfortably furnished and included a large screen smart TV and excellent Audio system; and the beds were comfortable with good linen.
Staff at reception were most helpful. The grounds were pleasant and included a beautiful pool.
An on-call shuttle (5-7 minute delay between calling and arrival) service was cost effective to travel to- and from- town, where all necessary shops, cafes and restaurants were available. Tour operators pick you up from your door.
That the Villa was not serviced daily was not an issue, and the 'Restaurant' on site is more a limited-range cafe. Food was available by delivery, but with the excellent kitchen, buying groceries and cooking for yourself works well.
For excellent dining options, two restaurants in Port Douglas stand out: Salsa and Melaleuca, both on Wharf Street. Both these offer fine food and service, but while prices were at the top end, they were not excessive. The best coffee in Part Douglas is from Origin Espresso on Grant Street.
You will really enjoy Port Douglas and a stay with Reef Villas Resort.
