We absolutely loved this couples only resort. The staff were extremely friendly, welcoming and helpful, nothing was too much trouble. Amanda even stayed on after hours to welcome us personally and make sure we were O.K. Our poolside view apartment was delightful, spacious and spotlessly clean. The staff were happy to make recommendations for restaurants etc. and to confirm our trip bookings. We found Port Douglas to be a very relaxed yet interesting place, whether you just wanted to chill out, take a stroll along Four Mile Beach, go snorkelling on the Reef or enjoy any of the variety of bars and restaurants. We loved Shantara so much that we renamed it our 'Shangrila'.

This was our second stay and we loved it just as much as the first time. Helpful staff, great location and a fantastic pool access room!! We will be back!!

Amanda was brilliant on the front desk!

The resort itself is ideally placed in town to walk everywhere however there is plenty of transport! The rsleaort sraff rwcommended our tours and we couldn't of been more happy with everything recommended! In Port Douglas you can spend as much or as little as you like! Best honeymoon, holiday- hope you choose Shantara also!

Once again we have thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Shantara . Our accommodation beautifully clean ,the kitchen well stocked with a wide range and plenty of kitchen utensils . We look forward to staying at Shantara again . We would highly recommend Shantara

This is a wonderful place to relax and enjoy everything that Port Douglas has to offer. It is easy walking distance to the beach and to the shops and restaurants in Macrossan Street. The service is friendly and helpful and I look forward to returning.

Would definitely recommend to any one coming to Port Douglas and will definitely come back

We had an outstanding 5 days staying at Shantara. Our studio apartment was clean, comfortable and exceptionally well equipped. The staff were exemplary in looking after us, making sure our excursions were booked and advising us on where to eat and what to do. We will not hesitate to return.

A beautiful place for couples to stay. Everything you need is provided for and the service provided by Samantha and Amanda was fantastic. No hesitation to book tours and transfers and always treated with a smile and hello. Location was perfect as it was central to everything. Amenities were great and everything was clean. The pool is beautiful and it was great having our private deck and even better no children! Highly recommended

Loved our stay and will try to make the trip a yearly one
