What our guests say
It’s a magnificent little club with a premium view yet easy on the wallet. I ran in 2 minutes before lunch ended, and they happily accommodated my cravings. The seafood platter was fresh, juicy, and full of flavor! The staff was fantastic. It’s a must-visit in Port Douglas, even on rainy days!
This restaurant has the most spectacular view I’ve ever seen in Australia! The food is beautiful too! During lunch, a catamaran sailed close by, adding to the magic of it all. You need to come here!
12 of us went to lunch last week, and everyone’s food was spot on. The mango salad dressing was unforgettable—would love the recipe! Well done to the staff and chef, we shall return.
