The property needs a full revamp . Room was not the cleanest old dirty carpet smell from bathroom .Balcony dirty chairs broken . Airconditioning in bed room was not working . 3 days we didn't see anyone clean the pool bird feathers insects floating on top of water . Breakfast I felt sorry for staff not enough staff to help ! Essabella was so thoughtful . Basic . Owners need to put money in and take it back to a great place for families. What yu pay at the moment you can stay in a better place .

My wife and I stayed three nights here on our once in a lifetime Australia East Coast Trip. We could not fault the staff, the spacious room, great views from the balcony. There was some work going on around the pool, however we still lazed by the pool and caught some sunshine. Thanks Oaks Resort definitely would stay here again.

Won't be staying here again. Needs a serious update both in common areas and rooms. . Facilities need to be open to serve hotel guests not close up when we are still poolside. Pool has a very rough surface and scraped skin on steps into pool.

Perfect for everyone. Has everything you would expect from Oaks including good sized, well serviced rooms and apartments. Can get restaurant and bar service from around the pool, so why not indulge? This is definitely suitable for families. Kids absolutely love it. Little ones and big ones.

I have just spent the weekend at this resort and it’s been so relaxing. I live in cairns so it was nice to getaway for the night and not have to drive far. It’s a birthday getaway so nice to just relax and chill. I received a lovely box of chocolates and a bottle of wine, late checkout and a buffet breakfast. Been having over 15 years experience in tourism and hospitality, I know what it’s like to work in a resort. Everything from the service, to the staff, the room and the food and drinks have been exceptional. Thank you everyone for making my stsy enjoyable. I’ll be returning for sure ❤️😊

We loved our stay at Oaks Resort. We found our stay so relaxing. From the outstanding breakfast at the start of our day, access to pool/surrounds/tours/pool side drinks/pizza during the day and a great restaurant menu/bar to finish off the day. Rooms were well appointed, clean, cool and spacious. The pool was a fantastic place to relax and unwind. Staff were attentive, very helpful and friendly.

My sisters and I enjoyed a weeks R & R at the Oaks resort in Port Douglas. The apartment had all the creature comforts of home. Breakfast was adequate and included in our stay. The pool was my favourite spot to chill. Staff were very accommodating when we needed to relocate due to the water being cut off (cyclone damage). Gardens are beautiful. Unfortunately the Spa at Oaks Resort (under different management) charged the full treatment fee after I needed to cancel due to relocating to Cairns after the water being cut off (cyclone damage/no showers or toilet). The Spa called to say that my credit card would be charged the full fee as not being able to shower was not a applicable reason to cancel. I was made aware that due to no water being connected to PD that all the staff will be unshowered too. At no stage would I ever visit a day spa unshowered! Extremely unhygenic! A waste of a $180 massage.

The room was in a quiet location, clean and comfortable with all amenites supplied. As it was rather hot and humid during our stay in Port Douglas the air conditioning was welcomed especially at night time for a good night's sleep.The resort is conveniently located to the town of Port Douglas and a short trip to my family in Mossman. I would love to return again if the prices are discounted again so will keep my eye out online for any future deals.
