My wife & I stayed at the Sebel Harbour Lights on Thursday night, and again on Sunday night, as this allowed us to have three full days in Port Douglas, far north Queensland. The gentleman checking us in was exceptionally friendly; so much so that during check-in I asked if he could reserve a room us on the Sunday evening... more

My companion and I spent one night at this hotel on our way from Port Douglas to Darwin. Upon arrival in the late afternoon, the welcome mat was nowhere to be seen: two hotel employees at the reception area watched completely uninterested as we struggled to open the door while carrying three pieces of luggage. During the check in procedure... more

Had a 1 bed apartment, harbour view. Absolutely 5*. No faults whatsoever and very high quality furnishings and bedding. $180 ish per night so I stayed 3. If someone else is paying then breakfast downstairs is healthy haute cuisine but with similarly healthy $ tag :o) As pics show, it is brand new, with a massive in room great multi... more

We stayed at Harbour Lights when it was in it's opening phase. We only stayed in a studio which was very small. I wouldn't recommend this for a stay of more than a night or two. The bed was super comfy, linen luxurious and everything was nice and clean. It was however extremely noisy when at 2am some hotel guests... more

I would highly recommend the Sebel Harbour Lights. The property is exceptionally clean, and the rooms are well-appointed. In addition, the location is superb - you will be a 5 minute walk to the Reef Fleet (where the Great Barrier Reef tours depart from), and close to all of the shopping and activities of Cairns. In addition, great restaurants are... more

My partner and I stayed at Sebel Harbour lights for one night only. We booked it over the internet through Wotif. We were extremely impressed with the georgeous room, very clean, quite spacious for a studio apartment and wow, the King Bed was so comfortable. I really enjoyed sitting out on the balcony watching the boats on the in let,... more

We stayed at their studio room for three nights. On the internet search, I thought the location looks good as it was very close to downtown and also to harbour. The hotel looks luxurious and the ads boasted its "harbour view". The rate was lower compared to other major hotel. I looked from their website and it was cheaper than... more

I travel in a group that prefers to stay in luxury hotels where ever we go - for some reason we thought Shangri-La was a 5 star top of the property hotel, which we were so disappointed with the conditions of the room, horrendous- so we finally took a walk to the Marriot Hotel across from the harbour. The Marriott... more

We booked a studio room on the Mirvac site and and got a really good rate and when we arrived got upgraded to a 1bed aprt. but the bad thing was when we checked into... more
