Port Douglas Family Accommodation

Nautilus Holiday Apartments, the ideal location for a family holiday in Port Douglas.

During April Nautilus Family Holiday Apartments Port Douglas hosted a lovely family group, the Waites from the Uk and the Touts from Sydney.  Both families combined made up 7 guests and were very comfortable in a three bedroom self contained Port Douglas holiday accommodaiton.  Unfortunately due to a shoulder operation one family member missed the holiday but we have heard it said “we will be back” and bringing the missing member on the next trip!

The four children spent many, many hours enjoying Nautilus Holiday Apartments pool.  It was lovely to hear so much excitement and fun being had.

Things to see and do in Port Douglas.

A trip to the Great Barrier Reef on Quicksilver was one highlight of their 7 day stay.    Another highlight for two of the boys was a wonderful day with Norseman Fishing Tours, they came back with a couple of fantastic fish one of which we cooked up on the BBQ.

During their visit the families enjoyed a trip to the Famous Port Douglas Sunday Markets.  They particularly enjoyed talking to a local Aboriginal artist and purchasing a Boomerang to take back to the UK.

Everyone enjoyed walks and swimming in famous four mile beach.  One of the boys couldn`t resist bringing a few coconuts back to open, this can be quite a job but the Manager at Nautilus is becoming an expert coconut opener.  Everyone enjoyed fresh coconut flesh free from the beach; you can`t get much better than that!

Port Douglas Bike Hire

Push bikes were hired from Nautilus Holiday Apartments and the family rode around Port Douglas which is a great way to see lots of local attractions.    On the last day of their holiday 3 lucky family members took a ride with Grub on one of his personalized Trike Tours.  All three passengers came back with the biggest smiles on their faces the boys said “it was just awesome we kept asking him to go faster and he did”!!  Sam commented “what a great way to get to see parts of Port Douglas and surrounds we would never have seen”.

Sadly all holidays eventually come to an end but these families certainly made the most of the 7 days in Port Douglas.  Everyone had a wonderful time and all said they would love to come back again for another fantastic Port Douglas family holiday one day. It was a pleasure to have such a lively, happy bunch of people stay with us and for them to enjoy our beautiful Port Douglas Family Accommodation.
