Our 5-night stay was amazing. Beachfront with the Esplanade road in front, but a beautiful view from the master bedroom. The main pool was perfect, and the kiddy pool on the other side with the BBQ area was ideal. Having two living spaces was great, and the BBQ made life easy. The property felt secure and was not far from restaurants or shops. We would absolutely recommend staying here.

This was an amazing place to stay and we are sad that it was only for one night. Everything is thought out to the last detail, there is coffee and tea always available in the hallway for free, the design of the room is amazing. The staff is super friendly and they offer luggage storage. We also had dinner and breakfast at their restaurant and both were super delicious and reasonably priced. Highly highly recommend!

Honestly, for us this was a gem to discover. We'd never stayed in this kind of accomodation but the photos looked amazing and truthfully, you expect a certain amount of "creativity" with the photos but when we arrived.....we were totally blown away. Spotless unit, amazing view and such lovely hosts. Our next stay, we will try the waterfrontage units but that is just a personal preference. The garden units also had a great view and even the campsites were well appointed and perfectly equipped. Seriously - dont overlook this fabulous piece of tropical paradise!

I had a wonderful stay at The York beachfront Holiday apartments. The location is right across the road from the beach which is lovely and quiet. I enjoyed the pool and local cafe walking distance, only a couple of minutes away. Ed and May are friendly and very accommodating. I'll be back next year.

Beautiful little spot to rest and just a few minutes walk down to the beach. The trees just got he left of the property on the end of a culdesac make it feel very remote and this way you're sure to have nothing but the sound of nature to fall asleep and wake up to. Beautiful large shower and a really comfy bed! Amazing value and Geraldine was heaps friendly and would happily book again. Cheers :)

Lovely apartment with beautiful ocean view and the constant sound of waves breaking on the beach. An excellent pool and lovely surrounds. Short walk to CocoMojo cafe for coffee or breakfast some days. Can walk to Palm Cove via the beach. Undercover parking close to apartment and even a small library!

We were there for IRONMAN, so being about 100m from the Swim Start was ideal. Right on the beach, close to T1 for Bike Racking, and there was parking, which was very handy.
