Apart from little noise around water supply and birds, property is in good clean condition and spacious. Self contained and easy access parking. No Neigbour issues, property is right next to ocean and good view on sun rise.

Loved looking out in beautiful warm mornings through palm trees to the sea. Loved the wallabies and the bush stone curlews. Our vantage point was perfect. Great walks, either to Kewarra Beach or to Palm Cove. Local cafe Coco Mojo was walkable and great.

Our stay was lovely, the gentlemen that run the apartments were great. Theaoartment was clean had all necessary items to start you off in the kitchen and an array of different glasses fir what ever you were drinking. The only problem was the two couches were very uncomfortable, unlucky for us they are in the middle of changing them, they are right onto wgat was needing change. To our surprise the two gentleman knocked on our door with a very nice bottle of Champagne for our 51st Anniversary,this just goes to show how well they treat their guests.we will Definately stay there agsin and soon. Also the beach front is so beautiful and cleaned every day. Amazing walking paths all the way to Palm Cove.
Thank you again for a great three days.

You definitely cannot go here without a car as the shopping village is not in walking distance (at least 20 minutes). There was only 1 restaurant (overpriced) nearby which wasn't open every day. The manager for this property was the worst we ever experienced...the front door key didn't work from Saturday to Tuesday when she finally got a locksmith. She put us in her own apartment next to the office where we had no privacy - even the curtains didn't provide that, but it was a larger apartment than what we had booked but the decor was abominable from the 1970's and not at all updated and rust everywhere and not at all inviting. We went upstairs to a German couple whom we helped out when the manager was absent and had given them the wrong key and they were extremely upset so we helped them. We also wanted to see their apartment and if ours was 1 star theirs was 5 stars on the 1st floor. Re the transfer from airport to Argosy at Clifton Beach, we were told Exemplar does not service Clifton Beach only Palm Cove so we were left to the mercy of a friendly driver who dropped us off anyway. However we had to change our reservation to Palm Cove where we were told to make our own way back to Clifton Beach on a rainy Friday night at 8pm when you cannot get a taxi because cruise ships and other events were taking place - and again the manager Judith was unhelpful after promising assistance.

Quiet beach stay
Judith the manager there was helpful and set up all of our excursions at great rates. This location was calm, peaceful and exactly the kind of beach stay we wanted. Restaurants and shops are a beautiful mile and a half walk away, so we didn’t rent a car although buses were available too.
