Niramaya Villas and Spa

沒有服務，類似民宿，環境不錯，體驗一般

Our stay at Niramaya Villas far exceeding our expectation. The staff were friendly, polite and professional and were very helpful. The villa was beautifully decorated and appointed, much larger than we anticipated and had everything we needed to make our stay very enjoyable, relaxing and peaceful. The plunge pool was incredible - the perfect temperature and also very private. We loved the birdlife, the surrounding grounds and the sunsets. We didn't want to leave. We highly recommend Niramaya and will definitely be returning.

We are a family of four from the US who usually travels to luxury resorts. When viewing our options for Port Douglas we found most options were mid-range. We chose Niramaya because it is beautifully landscaped, seemed quiet, and had great reviews. We knew going in that this was more of an condo/airbnb type accommodation than a hotel. We were fine with limited front desk hours and no housekeeping for our stay terms. Here is what we found: What we liked: Landscaping is beautiful and bugs weren’t as bad as I expected. Our small pool was heated The air conditioning worked well The shower in the master bedroom had good water pressure and plenty of hot water The staff was friendly and the dinner at the main restaurant was good Family room was very comfortable and spacious What we did not like: The second and third bedrooms are separate from the master bedroom and separate from the family room/kitchen. We knew this….but is was more of an inconvenience than we suspected The bathroom that sits between and second and third bedroom is outside…meaning you need to exit the air conditioned bedrooms, go outside, then enter the bathroom. The second bathroom did not have air conditioning. There were no controls, vents, and it was HOT in the bathroom. The bedroom with 2 single beds had a horrible odor, a smell that went beyond musty….it smelled bad and musty. Our daughters shared a queen sized bed instead of using that room. There were no dressers in the bedrooms…the master bedroom had 2 tiny side tables with lamps. All of the bedroom furniture, bathroom fixtures were cheap. The sheets felt like sandpaper. Bottom line: the housing seems adorable from the outside….but the accommodation was rustic….in a cheap sort of way. There could have been better quality sheets, there could have been better quality furniture, they could have air conditioning in the bathroom…..it was a choice. I can see why some people like this place….while we were there one villa was hosting a wedding, another villa had multiple families spending holiday together. The resort is very affordable if you are filling the rooms and using the hotel resources. It is probably a resort many Australians would enjoy. We enjoyed our time in Port Douglas…but we did not enjoy Niramaya. After incredible day trips we dreaded sleeping in our beds. This just wasn’t the right fit.
