Situated on the Esplanade in the heart of Palm Cove, this airy apartment will be the perfect hub for your tropical escape.



`Vista Melaleuca` is located in the stunning `Imagine Drift` resort, boasting all the benefits of three restaurants, hairdressers and boutique retail shops conveniently located on site, you will have everything you need just moments away. For those wishing to venture further afield, a parking space is allocated for your convenience.



The 2 Bedroom Condo offers an open plan lounge dining area, a fully equipped self-contained kitchenette, two spacious bathrooms, one with a walk-in shower and a concealed laundry, and the other offers a shower and bath. As well as having your own private balcony overlooking the tropical pool area we offer unlimited free wifi for our guests.



The two bedrooms are separated by sliding frosted windows, which can be opened up for a more `open plan` arrangement.



You have private use of the condo during your stay as well as a dedicated parking space. Being situated in the heart of Palm Cove means you are just a short stroll from the Restaurants, cafes and local boutique shops.



Please note, this is a self-serviced stay designed for your privacy and comfort. If you`d like additional housekeeping during your visit, we’re happy to arrange it for an extra fee — just let us know in advance, as it’s available upon request.



About 30 minutes north of Cairns, Palm Cove is a tiny beachside village centred around an esplanade lined with 500-year-old melaleuca trees. Walk around barefoot, choose a bike instead of a car and buy fresh seafood for a sunset barbecue on the beach. You can hire a kayak and paddle right off the beach or take a tour to nearby Double Island. The Palm Cove jetty is a great fishing spot, with plenty of Spanish mackerel, cod, whiting, stripeys and flathead to be caught.



There is a dedicated parking space for your convenience and the property is located right next to the shops and Esplanade.

Would book again!

The property is exactly as it looks in the pictures. It contained everything we needed. Great location. There was a mix up with the check in and because the only way to contact the host was via message it was a bit stressful. Not how you want to start your holiday. I received a text but the text then did not have a return facility. It would be so much better to have a simple phone number I could call. Having said all this I would have no hesitation in booking the apartment again. It was ideal for my friend and I as we both had our own room and a bathroom each. We enjoyed our stay very much.

Great location clean property

Everything you need is in the unit the property is very clean and well maintained The unit isn’t part of the hotel so you can’t have luggage stored if you have a late flight which is inconvenient Otherwise fantastic

Great service and very easy communication

Great property loved the little items like tea coffeee, shampoo, toilet paper body wash very helpful. Stove could have been cleaned better and outside furniture was white and hard to keep clean but was dirty when we arrived . Also a coffee table outside would be great to have tea coffee nibbles. The two foot stools were not very sterdy . But thank you will come back again and honours assisted in inextending our checkout thank you we will be back 👍
