The property itself was very good. We arrived late and checked in. The toilet in our room was not working. I tried ringing down to reception but the phones were out of order. There was another number to ring but it would not connect me to reception. When I walked down to reception, the person there was not helpful suggesting that it was our fault (Are you pressing just one button at a time!!). When I said I couldn't connect to reception, he just looked at his phone and said "I don't have any missed calls". We were told every room was booked and we couldn't change. By midday the next day it was fixed, but it was not handled at all well initially.

Palm cove....Beautiful. Hotel pretty good.Clean,great pool and grounds.Plenty food options, all within easy walking distance. Minor faults:Bathroom has glass bricks that allows light in the adjacent stairwell to not only light up the bathroom all night but also can be seen in the bedroom. Spa bath had 2 jets not working. Only minor issues.... Otherwise worth the money and recommend highly.

Having stayed in many Mantra properties, I was really surprised by this one. While Mantra Amphora looks charming from the outside, it’s in serious need of some love and updates. The pool area is spacious and attractive, but the plastic lounge chairs were uncomfortable and had no cushions — you’ll need a few towels just to make it bearable. The room was a letdown. The jacuzzi barely worked, the bathroom fixtures were old, the tap leaked, the toilet seat was loose, and the flush was worn out. The “coffee fridge” area was fine, and the bed, while firm, was still comfortable. The TV wasn’t smart and had limited options — not a big deal for me, but worth noting. The worst part was the noise. I could hear everything — people watching TV next door, toilets flushing above — the walls are paper-thin. On the positive side, the staff were lovely, especially the woman at check-in, and I appreciated being able to use the back bathroom for a good shower before leaving. Sadly, this stay didn’t meet the standard I’ve come to expect from Mantra. With some care and updates, it could be great — but it’s not there yet.

Nice property but far from the city and Reef Terminal in Cairns. Property could recommend closer options for water sports. I ended up renting a car once I realized how far it was from the Cairns Marlin Marina. The property did not have an elevator make sure you can carry you bags the 3 plus flights Palm Cove is quaint. The restaurants in the area walkable from the property.

This is not a regular hotel with amenities, only go here if you're on a tight budget and prefer apartment style with substandard cleaniness No elevators... So lug your luggage to your floor. i would avoid it. Only pro was that it is walking distance to palm cove Beach.
