We both had a wounderfull experience at your beautifull resort,very comfortable and relaxing . Will recommend shantara to all our friends. Taryn Ernest Miles.

We found Shantara to be a beautiful place to stay. The room was clean and cool, and it was a very quiet/peaceful environment to be in. The day spa was also a real treat. We found Samantha particularly lovely to deal with and she was very helpful when it came to choosing tours. We would definitely recommend Shantara to anyone.

If you are after an amazing resort that is within walking distance to the main street, has exceptional staff where nothing was too much trouble - then this is it :)

This place was quiet and comfortable. We were able to upgrade to an apartment which I recommend if you like a bit of space.

I wanted a holiday of comfort and relaxation, and Shantara delivered this in spades. The pool view apartment was immaculately kept, and well equipped for me to cater for myself when I wanted. It was quiet, and just secluded enough to provide the right amount of privacy along with a resort style atmosphere with the pool just below. Also had a decent gym to work off the indulgences at the restaurants just nearby! What really impressed me was the staff. Sharon and the team made me feel welcome from day 1, and nothing was too hard to organise. As a solo traveller, this really does make a difference. It's not often that I return to a place, but I guarantee that I'll be visiting Shantara again in the future.

What a lovely place to stay, close to the main street, rooms were spotless and the staff couldn't do enough for you. Such a friendly bunch and we were made to feel very welcome. Definitely would go back !! Cannot fault the place or the staff.

This would have to be one of the best relaxing holidays my husband n I have had. We loved the cleanliness n convenience of the place. It's gotta be the best or one of the best places in Port Douglas. The pool outside our room is just heavenly n luxury. No children is a winner for those needing a truly relaxing break. Walk to town to eat or shop n even closer is 4 mile beach. We even stayed in and cooked a few times and used bbq. This place is heaven on earth. Thank you!

Excellent staff, facilities, style, also spotlessly clean and only a 5 minutes walk to shops and restaurants

We had a most enjoyable week at Shantara. Our apartment was squeaky clean, could not fault it. The staff were fantastic and so very helpful. I highly recommend Shantara to everyone who visits Port Douglas. Location is fantastic also because you don't have to hire a car, you walk everywhere!

I booked Shantara Resort as a treat for my sister who was visiting from Cape Town so that she could experience the Great Barrier Reef. Both of us were a little nervous about being out on the ocean and also snorkeling. Thanks to Amanda at the resort she helped us choose the right boat and spoke to us in great length about what to expect. Her kindness & encouragement gave us the confidence we needed and we had the most wonderful experience. Nothing was to much trouble all the staff were lovely. The resort itself is well run two beautiful pools to swim in and close to all amenities, I would definitely go back and would highly recommend it.
