We just spent 3 days at the White House in Port Douglas and had a very pleasant experience. The place was recommended by friends who live in Melbourne. Margaret, the manager, was very helpful and friendly. She helped us arrange tours to the rainforest and the GBR and gave great recommendations. Because it was a holiday weekend, many restaurants were... More

This was my third stay at The Whitehouse, and after trying two other self contained holiday apartments on previous occasions, I will always be staying at The Whitehouse for my annual holidays from now on. It is a true North Queensland experience; the building has the feel & look of a Queenslander & the tropical surroundings are so pretty. My... More

We (family of four) stayed at the White House which looked and sounded great on reviews but quite frankly a disappointment. The view of the water was blocked by trees, the rooms were a bit dirty. Kitchen appliances very annoying and hard to use. Only has a parking space of about 4 cars. The manager was a very nice lady... More

We stayed 8 nights in an apartment in The White House and although (self?) rated 4 star, it certainly was not that good in our experience. We booked a 1 bedroom apartment but were given a 2 bed one, which was very good as there is so little room in the bedroom, which had only a very hard, not so... More

We have been holidaying at The Whitehouse over many years and thought we must tell others of this consistently wonderful experience. The building shouts "I'm a Queenslander", looks just great in it's tropical surround. All the apartments are large by any standard and all have different outlooks. Location, location, location, easy walk to shops, beach, pubs and restuarants. Manager Margaret's... More

it's a real pleasure to be able to welcome back so many repeat guests like you and your lovely wife, Allan R. Always nice to see familiar smiling faces on a regular basis. I look forward to helping make your next stay as enjoyable as your previous visits. (The pool will probably have heating installed by then, even though you... More

Manager Margaret is the real star here. She's friendly and helpful and very kind. Nothing was too much trouble and to have her wave me goodbye was so lovely. She arranged tours and transfers, suggested eateries (and was spot on) and was never intrusive. The apartment was large with a modern kitchen (stove/oven, dishwasher, fridge), functional bathroom (with laundry facilities)... More

Thank you ZenTourist, I try to help, and it's always an absolute pleasure to help lovely people like yourself! Having a big balcony outside does cut down on the afternoon light in some of the apartments, I know, but it does keep them cool and comfortable and the light in the morning is glorious. I'm glad you agree with my... More

White House is a great place to stay in Port Douglas. It is very close to the beach and close to all the shops and restaurants, just an easy walk and yet one feels a long way from all the bustle of Macrossan Street. The apartment is clean, open, fresh and comfortable. Margaret is very helpful and gives valuable information... More

Thank you, Daryn P, I'm glad you liked apartment 4 - you'll have to try a different one next time, they're all good! They all have balconies where you can enjoy the fresh air and watch the birds and butterflies, maybe even see the ocean. More

Port Douglas is a lovely town with excellent restaurants, and so much to do from this area.The apartment was superbly appointed, spacious and spotless. We had a penthouse appartment, so were spoilt with 3 balconies.The location was just excellent, 2 minutes... More

Our stay at the White House Port Douglas was exceptional. It is nicely situated close to 4 mile beach, maybe at most 150 meters. The shopping areas as well as the supermarket are within easy walking distance. The apartments are spacious and clean with a great balcony. Coming from one of the more colder parts of Canada, I didn't think... More
