The Reef House Adults Retreat

Spread across flourishing tropical gardens between Queensland’s rainforest-cloaked interior and the bright blue Coral Sea waters, The Reef House Adults Retreat in Palm Cove offers award-winning, adults-exclusive respite in Tropical North Queensland. Blending the intimacy of a boutique hotel with warm, personalised hospitality, this luxury Australia hotel delivers a tranquil alternative to the area’s larger, resort-style accommodation. Days here unfold with moments spent lounging beside one of two swimming pools (poolside butler service included) before savouring complimentary benefits such as afternoon tea and punch-and-canapé evenings.

A host of complimentary Signature Experiences at the hotel range from learning about Indigenous culture, cocktail-making mixology classes and wine tasting sessions. Other thoughtful touches at The Reef House Adults Retreat include a Reef House History Book leaving gift, tropical sorbet served poolside each afternoon and curated arrival gifts like fragrant oil burners and a pre-chilled bottle of Australian sparkling wine in your room.
