There was nothing we didn’t like about this property.

Everything about this property was exceptional. Our host Andre was amazing. We loved every moment of our stay. Waking up each morning to a wonderful breakfast and exceptional service/company was amazing. For those looking to feel like they are overseas without leaving the country this place is magical. We loved relaxing by the pool watching the Ulysses and Bird-wing butterflies flying around. The dragonfly landing on the fence. The sunbirds and other bird playing in the trees. The gardens here are beautiful and tropical. The view….oh that view….we could have looked at that view forever. This place captured our hearts and we truely didn’t want to come home. The room itself was gorgeous. The bed was lovely and comfortable. The outdoor shower in our room was a real treat. Anything we needed Andre was happy to help us with and are so grateful for being able to stay at this wonderful resort. Book your stay here and you won’t be disappointed.

A bar would have been dangerously alluring.

A good experience or great vacation is made up of both exciting and relaxing activities, fabulous dining, beautiful scenery and comfortable surroundings. Having had the pleasure of staying at Mai Tai with consummate hosts Andre and Anthony we should add to the list the beautiful experience of being in the company of truly wonderful, interesting and generous people, which is a rare thing. We so enjoyed our morning chats, gorgeous dog company and amazing breakfasts. Our hosts were sensitive, kind, intelligent and funny it was really great to make a human connection which is too easily overlooked when booking a holiday. Honestly the warmth and kindness we were shown made us feel relaxed and comfortable. Anthony is fabulously attentive and truly cares about his guests. Andre is super warm and kind with some great stories we were lucky to meet them both. We do hope to stay with them again soon.

Everything was perfect.

Mai Tai is definitely a little piece of paradise. The rooms are so peaceful, in Balinese style and the outlook is magnificent. It’s close to Port Douglas and the amazing Daintree. We loved it. The hosts looked after us with such consideration, we felt extremely pampered.

Nothing. I didn't want to leave!

Absolutely beautiful surrounds and the rooms are fitted out so nicely, very tranquil with each room having its own privacy from inherent guests. Love that it's adults only and couples only also. The hosts Andre and Anthony are so welcoming, friendly and really want you to have a great experience, offering their local knowledge and recommendations.

The Breakfast was excellent and view was outstanding

Nothing really.

Breakfast was great! They are not a hotel with a commercial kitchen so could not provide a hot breakfast. So it’s best not to bring that expectation with you.

There are only 4 rooms (and a separate villa) - 2 look out onto vegetation whilst the other 2 have, I believe, magnificent views down the valley. Try and get one with a view - I don't know if they cost more but they would probably be worth the extra. This is not a complaint, just a comment, our room was fine.

Quiet, unassuming and in a spectacular location.

Mai Tai resort is everything we hoped for. A peaceful retreat, with killer views and hospitable hosts. Anthony and Andre went out of their ways to make our stay special. We especially appreciated Andre’s helpful tips for our trips up to the Daintree. The room was spacious and well appointed - it lacked for nothing. We’ll definitely be back!

Delicious breakfast in an idyllic setting. Magnificent views. Our hosts, Anthony and Andre were so friendly and a wonderful resource - history of the area and great knowledge of attractions/top spots to visit etc. Most importantly, they were friendly and helpful in all ways, and the rooms and facilities were spotless. A simply wonderful stay and difficult to leave.

This resort is the definition of tranquility, with incredible decoration and surrounds. It is in the perfect location to access a range of activities and sights. The hosts are generous and welcoming, they made us feel comfortable and totally at home. A highlight for me was the delicious and colourful breakfast with exquisite views each morning. I will miss the beautiful Spode plates and morning welcome from their gorgeous dogs!

Mai Tai Resort is in a secluded and private location and is convenient enough to travel to Port Douglas or surrounds as we had our car. The breakfast every morning was fresh and filling, and Andre and Anthony were very attentive to make sure we were comfortable. The view at breakfast from the outdoor dining area looking over the mountain was relaxing and was a great way to start each day.

Great views, comfortable and clean rooms with a beautiful Balinese outdoor shower. Andre was a walking encyclopaedia with what to do around Port Douglas and the region with a smile. I would totally recommend this place if you're looking to switch off, but still be close to all the amenities. Delicious, light breakfast 👌

We loved the peace and quiet of the resort, and still within easy travel time to Port Douglas, Mossman Gorge and tablelands. The rooms are really comfortable and the service is excellent. Andre and Anthony made us feel very welcomed and were a wealth of local information.

Wonderful location with views out over the range and sea. Lovely decor with great attention to detail, really added to the location and ambience. Tropical breakfast with views and very welcoming hosts. 15 minute drive to Port Douglas or Mossman, plenty to see and do nearby. Very good wifi.
