Leave the kids behind and retreat to this modern, nicely appointed, fully furnished pool view apartment at the five star Shantara Port Douglas holiday resort.

Comprising a spacious two-bedroom, two-bathroom floorplan, this contemporary apartment is a consistent performer in the holiday rental market and provides accommodation across two separate rooms – a hotel-style studio apartment and a semi self-contained one-bedroom apartment (individual entries).

The open plan design of the one-bedroom apartment draws you to the sliding plantation shutters and sunny, covered, pool view balcony where you can soak in the enviable tropical climate all year round.

Back inside, the roomy air conditioned living space has everything you need for a comfortable, carefree holiday escape including easy care tiling, lounge suite, wall-mounted TV, dining table and kitchen with microwave, 2-burner hotplate, dishwasher, fridge and handy storage and (stone) benchtop space.

A feature sliding door opens to reveal the large bedroom that easily accommodates a king-sized bed and comes complete with air conditioning, ceiling fan, built-in wardrobe, plantation shutters and ensuite providing the luxury of both bath (spa) and shower options.

Similarly appointed, the good sized studio apartment provides a kitchenette (microwave, fridge, sink, storage), 2-person dining setting, wardrobe, shower ensuite and its own private pool view balcony. A full laundry is also cleverly incorporated into the common entry foyer of both apartments.

Catering to adults only, Shantara is located within easy strolling distance to town, the beach and marina, and is the perfect holiday base for exploring the Great Barrier Reef, Daintree Rainforest and all that the Douglas Shire has to offer.

The two lagoon style swimming pools are heated over the winter months and guests can also avail themselves of the air conditioned gym, day spa, barbeque pavilion, secure basement parking, free WiFi and lift/elevator access.
