Luxury hotels in Port Douglas are not hard to find but Niramaya Villas and Spa is a true oasis within an oasis. Famous boutique-lined Macrossan Street is just five minutes drive away, and stunning Four Mile Beach is even closer. Rental bikes allow you to build an appetite as you go.
Each of the architecturally designed villas run seamlessly from indoor to outdoor; from king bed and large kitchen to private plunge pool and mesmerising water features. With villas catering to individuals to groups of five, there is something for everyone. If you’re lucky you can request a rainforest or lake view in certain villas too.
When your hunger takes hold, take yourself to the gourmet haven Niramaya Restaurant & Bar for a fresh breakfast, or wake up late and have a pizza overlooking the lush surrounds. Even the fussiest of children will be looked after here. Unmissable drinks are available at the bar until 5pm.
After a leisurely meal, you can indulge in a facial or hot stone massage at Niramaya Day Spa. If that’s not your thing, the friendly staff can arrange a round at The Mirage Country Club just over the road. There are also tennis courts and a fully-equipped gym for those more active guests.
