mark989898 17/02/2021 TripAdvisor review

We stayed for 3 nights as part of our road trip from Ipswich to celebrate my wife’s 60th birthday. We had a room at the front overlooking the sea. We enjoyed the pools, afternoon canapés and punch as well as the water fitness session. It’s also a great location with lots of food options around and Cedric we very welcoming and helpful. In terms of areas for improvement the menu at the restaurant was a bit limited, my wife and I booked for the cocktail making session but they did not have our details so my wife missed out. We were on the ground floor and were concerned about privacy.

Bonjour mark989898, Thank you very much for your feedback on TripAdvisor following your recent visit to the beautiful Reef House MGallery. Once again a very Happy 60th Birthday to your wife! Our resort certainly has a large choice of activities making sure you are well entertained. On your next visit we will be more than happy to allocate a room on the upper floor. Warm regards, Cédric Lootvoet Luxury Concierge

katea765 16/02/2021 TripAdvisor review

We have stayed at this hotel every year for the past 15 years and have seen many changes .... some good, some not so good. While we once again loved our stay there were a few disappointing lapses in the maintenance of the hotel. The grounds and gardens were showing signs of neglect ... dead branches, plants and vines. There was also dropped flowers, leaves etc and with the rain fall that us usual at this time of year they became slimy making it quite dangerous. I actually nearly slipped over a couple of times. On previous visits there was a grounds person who cleaned these up every morning, the grounds were just not up to their beautiful standard. Apparently there maintenance has been contracted out now, certainly seems to be a drop in the appearance. I do understand that Covid has had a dramatic effect on hotels and at The Reef House this is also apparent with the quality of the food in the restaurant. Of course there are no buffets now and meals have to be ordered but the standard of the food at breakfast was disappointing. With the cost of rooms at this resort you would expect better. Having said all this it is still the best place to stay in Palm Cove, we were made to feel very special being return guests, the staff are amazing and we will definitely continue to stay there and recommend it.

Bonjour katea765, Thank goodness for your constructive feedback on TripAdvisor following your recent visit to the beautiful Reef House MGallery. Your comments have been communicated to the concerned departments for immediate action. Please do not hesitate to contact me directly if you have any further feedback. Warm regards, Cédric Lootvoet Luxury Concierge

We had the most amazing time at the reef house! If you're trying to decide where to stay in palm cove this is hands down the best place. Its unique in its homage to the hotels history with its honesty bar, vintage games room, Norm serving punch and canapes, but it also has all the modern comforts you would expect from a 5 star property. The staff were friendly, helpful and accommodating...shout out to Fabian at the desk and Lulu in the restaurant! Not to mention its perfect location on the heart of the strip, we will definitely be back.

Sjn Couples - 20/01/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

We were generally happy with our experience, with the exception of a couple of things. The lady that runs the spa came into our room whilst we were briefly out, and turned our tv off without permission. We also found the food and room service varied between below average to excellent -depending on who cleaned the rooms or who the chef was, there was no consistency in these services. The staff we dealt with were always friendly and helpful.

We had an excellent time! Food was great, included breakfast in particular was huge and yummy! All of the staff were super friendly and went out of their way to assist with anything we needed (eg. providing breakfast early so we could go on a tour. Finding a jumper I’d forgotten in hotel and sending it back home for me). Just fantastic! Pools were lovely, well maintained, with a great relaxation area next to pool. The extra little things like complimentary alcoholic beverages and Canapé la each night and sorbet each arvo just made it perfect! Highly highly recommend!!! We came during wet season with it raining quite often, and still had a blast! Location is just superb, right next to a bunch of fantastic restaurants and a super great gelato shop; and opposite the beach!

We stayed 5 nights at the beautiful Reefhouse palm cove. From the moment we entered we loved our experience, all staff were amazingly helpful and welcoming, particularly Cedric & Bernie, Norm, and the morning and evening restaurant staff. They each made our stay extra special. The food was amazing. Cleanliness of the hotel was also exceptional. We also loved the idea of holding onto the tradition of the “honesty bar” and afternoon canapés and punch were a highlight of our stay, where we got to meet Norm, make friends and relax playing chess of an afternoon. We loved the boutique style and decor of the resort and hope it never loses its character. We’ll be back !

Robert J. W. Friends - 19/01/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

The rooms were comfortable , however ,after going to our room & unpacking we found that we had an infestation of black ants . It was reported to reception & the area was sprayed . It was decided that we would need to relocate to another unit. With the help of reception we relocated . The help provided was great. Several days later we found that our fridge was not working . It was reported to reception who later came & removed the fridge from the cabinet. We were told that it would be reported to maintenance so for rest of our stay ,the fridge remained out of the cabinet & it was still there when we left .
