Frommer's Review

Picture yourself in a Somerset Maugham novel -- substituting the Queensland tropics for Singapore -- and you've almost got it. This is one of the most romantic hotels in Queensland, or all of Australia. The Reef House's guest list reads like an excerpt from Who's Who -- the most recent addition being Bob Dylan and his band. But no matter who you are, you will not want to leave. The white walls are swathed in bougainvillea, and the beds with mosquito netting. Airy interiors feature handmade artifacts and white wicker furniture. The Verandah Spa rooms, which have a Jacuzzi on the balcony, overlook the pool, waterfalls, and lush gardens. They have extra touches such as bathrobes and a CD player, as well as balconies within earshot of the ocean. The beachfront restaurant, on a covered wooden deck beneath towering Paperbarks, is a favorite with locals and tourists alike for its unsurpassed ocean views, gentle breezes, and unpretentious food.

Facilities:Restaurant; bar; cafe; honor bar; 3 small heated outdoor pools; nearby golf course; spa; access to nearby health club; concierge; tour desk; airport shuttle; limited room service; massage; babysitting; coin-op laundry; laundry service; dry cleaning.
