Antje’s apartment through Belle Escapes was absolute bliss. Seven of us enjoyed our 6 days there with everything we needed in beautiful surrounds. Two minor issues were quickly resolved in a wonderful friendly manner. A late check out was just what we needed and Belle minded our bags after we stuffed up our transfer to Port Douglas. Would highly recommend this apartment and will be back! Thank you all at Belle.

Perfect location being that its only 5 minutes from the ferry terminal. Close to great food! Perfect for a family or even just a couple who want a home away from home vibe! Perfect setting for a "wind down" holiday! Everything was clean and tidy and Andrew was fantastic to work with. Would not hesitate to book again in the future.

La Palma Luxury Retreat With Heated Pool Palm Cove

5 out of 5 average rating, 45 reviews1 month ago

We had a wonderful stay at Robb's place. The entire home was spotlessly clean and comfortable. Robb has thought of everything you might need and has provided it. We enjoyed beautiful weather and spent most of our days relaxing either in the pool or by the pool. What we appreciated most was the privacy of the Villa. If you decide to venture out, you can easily walk to the Palm Cove beach area, which has plenty of restaurants and shops. The area also has a convenience store and liquor store, with a larger grocery store just down the road. Be sure to reference the detailed local directory provided by Robb, which lists area restaurants and things to do.
