Port Douglas, QLD
Airing Date: Apr 19th, 2008
Take a dip in the pool...Port Douglas was once a sleepy fishing village and is the closest port to the Great Barrier Reef....so up here, it's all about the water - which is reflected at POOL as well!
POOL is Port's newest resort. It's flashy and classy and lives up to its name with two huge 185 metre pools as the hotel's centrepiece. There are rooms with their own plunge pools, and others with direct balcony access to the huge shared pools.
There are 71 rooms at POOL. The Sunset Rooms have 2 bedrooms and private balconies, while the Swim Up Rooms (also 2 bedroom) boast a private poolside terrace with direct access to the centrepiece swimming pool. Upgrade to the Uber Rooms with 3 lavish bedrooms.
And if the pools at POOL aren't enough to float your boat there's the world's biggest organism right on its doorstep - The Great Barrier Reef! Skysafari's offer helicopter tours over the famous World Heritage site and out to an isolated coral cay for a picnic and a snorkel. Actual flying time lasts 30 minutes, where you get a bird's eye view over the marvels of the Great Barrier Reef.
To top off the top adventure in Port, every Wednesday at the Port Douglas Yacht Club, local skippers gather and take tourists out to the Low Isles for twilight sailing - for free!
