Loved our stay here. Be aware there is no bar or restaurant but it is in walking distance of the main strip. Loved the way they made it clear what to expect with the servicing of your room. Communication was excellent and reception staff were very friendly and knowledgeable

The Shantara is a nice, clean resort which is quiet and enjoyable. It is very close to shops without being to close to attract the surrounding noise.

Had a lovely stay at Shantara Resort and would visit again. We went in off-season so it was quiet and often got the pool to ourselves! The room was a great size, nice and cool and an excellent amount of storage space so you can actually unpack your toiletries and other knicknacks. The staff are friendly and helpful, and the resort is spotless. I recommend paying for the lower level room so you can walk straight into the pool, we were on level 1 and had FOMO for the lower rooms. The only negative for me was that the bed and pillows weren't that comfortable. Also, our stay did not include turndown service, you need to pay extra for that - if you have a long-ish stay, make sure you keep that in mind.

Property was clean apart from the yellow stains and mould on the doona. Great adults only resort would be even better with a pool bar area. Communication was excellent especially since the cyclone hit and we were wondering if everything was ok. Watch out for the guy that cleans the pool area of a morning with the ear plugs in he is cranky!!

Studio room on 2nd floor with a view over the pool was the best. The room was nice size and amazing extras. Gardens were amazing. Liz was amazing and so helpful. Shortwalk into town to collect our bikes, which we could store in the basement. Due to the recent cyclone, Liz was great at keeping us well informed.

Shady business practices
Cyclone Jasper and massive flooding hit the Port Douglas and Cairns just before our arrival. The airport was closed and flooded, and the road connecting the airport to Port Douglas had been washed away. We heard nothing from the hotel, nor were they reachable by phone. After a statement from the government that residents should only use water for emergencies, decided it was irresponsible to try to go up. yet when we emailed to cancel- they were suddenly responsive, and quick to let us know that we'd get no refund. So even the resort had no running water- we were responsible for the full payment. I'm assuming that the complete lack of communication prior to check-in helped ensure that they help no liability for cancelations. We will return to Port Douglas- but most certainly not to Shantara.

Hi Susannah, Thanks for your review.Lets put this review into context. I have looked at all emails to you prior to arrival and we strongly recommend that you take out Travel Insurance to cover unforseen circumstances, there were three emails that thas mentioned this. Also, in the the last email to you on the 19th December, I asked if you had Travel Insurance and no reply from you. If you have Travel Insurance please contact me again for the letter that the Insurance company will require. If you do not have Travel Insurance at least reply to my last email on the 19th December for what we can do.Seriously, I don't know why people are travelling nowadays without travel insurance. I do and it comes in very handy for those unsoreseen circumstances. I was due to go the New Zealand in early December and diagonosed with Leukaemia, 4 weeks prior to departure, no refund from the airlines, but Travel Insurance came good within 2 weeks after submitting the claim. Took half an hour to do the claim. For the extra 50 I paid for the Insurance it was a great investment, it was not the airlines fault.This weather event is no your fault, its is my fault, its is not Shantara fault, but people need to take some responsibility for their actions as well.

Don't get me wrong Shantara on the surface looks great , also close to town and shops restaurants, lovely massage faciliities (seperate ownership to resort)BUT they are not great at little things and some Major annoyances. Major, the site is next to a worksite with constant noise from labourers, this was never communicated to us. This will disappear once site is finished but bloody didn't help us.. Major, access to deck chairs (4) with afternoon sun was only avaiable by creeping around pool deck. Gate access locked. There is a pool on other side with only 4 available with sun during the day, another few at BBQ end. Major :paying good money my apartment was very small, shared deck big enough for only 1 sun chair for each apartment..This was advised Major SUN - NONE at all to my apartment all DAY Medium ; Again paying good money had to dispose of our own rubbish by walking 100 metres each BIN load down an elevator into a garage. Customer Care ; Snantara refused to provide single beds, my partner had just had major surgery and needed a sperate BED, answer was room was too small. no good enough. Cleaners : not their fault but they start at around 6.30 and noise travels Noise from apartment above, constant movement early and late of tavles and chairs above also easily hear people walking above.. Summary : Shantara has the makings of a good resort but I personally wont be going there again.

The staff were amazing. So friendly and Julie, at reception helped book or suggested great things to do and see. You can tell the Shantara is looked after meticulously. The gardens were so well kept and the facilities and pool area always clean. It definitely was quite. At first, a bit strange, as it is our first time travelling without children/teens. So close to everything. Just a short walk to dinning and shopping, or the beach. Thank you
