Lovely location
A beautiful location and accommodation. Loved the pools. Our unit needed a little maintenance on doors and windows but all other needs were met well.

No lift at the property so we had to change to a lower level room and still carry our suitcases up a flight of stairs. Being in our 70's this was not easy.

In a great central location. Within walking distance to shops, supermarket and eating cafes and restaurants. Staff were very friendly. The gardens and pools were well kept and very inviting. We used the BBQs which were clean and looked relatively new. Parking was easy. Our unit was ideal for the two of us. Kitchen a little small but adequate and well equipped. Bathroom looked recently refurbished, modern, fresh and clean. Bed was very comfortable and lounge area was also very comfortable and well equipped. No hesitation in returning to Hibiscus Gardens. :)

Grounds are beautiful . Wonderful pools and atmosphere. Close to beach and walking distance to shops and restaurants. Great location.
Some reception staff don't demonstrate good customer service while others helpful . Felt at times was being nickled and dimed. Charged for toilet paper and doing laundry. Think given cost of staying this should be included as other apartments don't charge for this where we have stayed. Didn't think apartment was that clean on arrival and no room cleaning with apology they don't have staff . Should at least place sanitizer in apartment and mop or swifter so we could clean ourselves.

We loved our stay at Hibiscus. It is such a beautiful resort with a very Balinese feel to it. Jenny was absolutely lovely and welcoming, you can tell she is passionate about what she does. Hibiscus was so close to everything in Port Douglas literally walking distance to everything, the beach, the marina, the shops and the restaurants which made it so convenient as we were travelling with a 1 and a half year old baby. The pools and gardens here were amazing and well looked after, nice to relax in after long days out and about. Only negative is we found 2 cockroaches in the apartment and the lounge could use a clean but other than that all was good!

The fridge had an unpleasant smell which was attended to by housekeeping staff. The view from the balcony was very disappointing as it overlooked the property next doors airconditioning units & a garden of dead plants. Everyone else had lovely views.

The perfect place to relax for a week
Hibiscus was a beautiful place to relax and unwind. Location is perfect with easy walking distance to everything in town as well as the beach and the marina. We especially loved the semi-private terrace extension from the living room where we spent many hours enjoying breakfasts and dinners. And both pools at this resort are beautiful…clean and inviting at any hour. Oh, and the bed in our room was super comfortable! We slept amazingly. Thanks for a great week.

A beautiful property, just a (very) short walk from the center of town. Comfortable, relaxing and full of all the amenities you could need for a self sustained holiday.
Just fantastic!

I liked the free onsite parking and the fabulous reception staff. The pool was amazing. Our room left a lot to be desired. The bedding was outdated and the beds themselves very uncomfortable. The starter pack of soap etc is great but having to go to reception and pay for more is not. Paying for pool towel hire isn't cool either and not typical of most hotels. There is no glass in the windows. Just screens and shutters so no outdoor noise is blocked out and you're either in the dark without natural light or you're hot because you can't close a window so the air con does nothing. Never been in a hotel like that. Not a lot of thought went into guest experience there. The tvs are tiny and really should just be wall mounted. There is no safety switch for the stovetop hobs in the rooms so I was constantly monitoring my 3 year old to ensure he didn't switch the stove on which isn't very relaxing for parents. There was no clean towel service and there's no extended reception hours so if you leave early and get back late and need something - tough luck. There's also no phones to call reception, you have to walk down there basically.

The resort was clean, very close to Macrossan Street and had a lovely pool. Staff were also friendly.
The only problem is that when you are in bed you can hear the people in the units above walking around.
