After reading the reviews and searching online, I felt pretty confident that this would be a great choice. It is a nice place but I thought the property had significant problems and was certainly not worth the room rate or a repeat visit. Best things about the property: - Good location in the center of Palm Cove - Attractive building... more

We stayed in 2007 and liked it a lot. Our room was spacious and clean, it looked a bit tired though. We loved our outdoor spa on the terrace. The public spaces of the Reef House have been decorated in an appealing tropical style. Dinner and breakfast at the Reef House Restaurant with a view over the Coral Sea was... more

From the first moment of booking our stay and wedding, the service and attention could not be faulted. I found this venue from looking on the internet. We booked our stay and wedding all from the UK before moving to Sydney.. I became very nervous on reading the reviews after paying the deposit. I crossed my fingers and hoped it... more

I stayed at the Sebel Reef House & Spa in August 2009 on a vacation with my 20 year old daughter. The hotel is beautiful and the location is great. It was clean, comfortable and a great value. We were near the restaurant area, and at the front floor level of the hotel but it was still quiet plus we... more

Location was beautiful, Rooms were really nice... Service really let this place down.. We ordered a fruit platter on arrival and champagne on our wedding day ... Actually had to chase these up as they had just forgotten about it. One staff member seemed to be the only person doing anything. Apart from this when we left that day i... more

We started our first visit to Australia with a week at the Sebel Reef House at Palm Cove in Queensland. The setting is Idyllic. The hotel is a dream. The staff were superb. The room was luxurious, charming and all we could have wanted. No hesitation, it is excellent. more

Coming from the United States we expected this to be like a five star resort at a new and faraway destination. It felt more like an average hotel in a small Hawaiian city. The city is nice, though there is not a whole lot to do. We found great places to eat just down the street and enjoyed the hotel's... more

My wife and I stayed at the Reef House in February 2007 for 3 nights. We thought it was a lovely hotel with (contrary to some other reviews) really friendly service. We thought that the fact that you could get drinks by the pool using an honesty box said a lot about the attitude the staff had towards their guests... more

I knew I was in for a treat from the moment the cooling towels were handed over at reception. This is one beautiful looking place and the location is faultless. Waking up every morning, taking a dip in the pool followed by a walk along the beach – I was in Nirvana after a Melbourne winter! Returning each night from... more

This was one of the most appalling hotel experiences I have ever had. Having stayed at the Reef House seven years ago, and having absolultely loved it, we decided to treat ourselves to a couple of days there on a return trip to Australia. What a big mistake. The hotel is now owned by Mirvac resorts and the place is... more
