The Reef House Adults Retreat logo

If you were ever contemplating a tropical escape to soak up the tranquil atmosphere within one of Queensland’s most loved spots, look no further than The Reef House Adults Retreat, stamped with a Travellers’ Choice Best of the Best – making it one of the top 1% of properties worldwide. Hugged by the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Daintree Rainforest on one side and turquoise waters of the Great Barrier Reef on the other, this award-winning boutique sanctuary offers spacious rooms and suites mere metres from the pristine white sands of Palm Cove Beach - and to even further sweeten the deal, it’s adults only, meaning no guests under 17 are permitted.

A stay at the charming The Reef House Adults Retreat is synonymous with romanticism and sophistication, and the little touches, like the dedicated Luxury Concierge and complimentary activities, including aqua aerobics, interactive ‘Reef House Mixology’ class, and unlimited use of the resort’s fishing rods or vintage-style cruiser bikes set this resort apart from the rest. You won’t need to look far for gourmet bites, with the Reef House Restaurant and Brigadier’s Bar & Lounge conveniently located onsite, and the iconic Reef House Spa is the place to go for moments of uninterrupted bliss.

Spa Suite Upgrade: Heighten the romance with a stay in the breathtaking Verandah King Spa Suite with a private spa bath on the balcony or terrace.

Great service!
I have just returned from my first holiday where I was astounded by the value for money, so on my return I went straight back online to book my next break. Excellent service received from Joel S today when I needed to amend my second booking. Happy days!

Dealing with great staff is a bonus and Sarah B is amazing nothing was any trouble she is a pleasure to deal with 10/10. Being we had to cancel our trip Sarah was very efficient and understanding of our circumstances and being as we have book through Luxury Escapes before and have had amazing holiday's in the past this is just a hiccup before we book our next trip.
