Fodor's Expert Review Sheraton Mirage Port Douglas Resort
Davidson St., Port Douglas, Queensland, 4877, Australia
One of the oldest beachfront resorts in Port Douglas centers on a complex of saltwater lagoon pools and has an adjoining 18-hole golf course, making it a good choice, especially for families. Newly upgraded guestrooms, suites, and villas are light, modern, and beachy, with sleek wood furnishings and appointments, flat-screen TVs, and iPod docking stations. The landscaped grounds front a white-sand beach, and there are lots of dining and drinking options on-site. It's a big resort, with all the pluses and minuses size can offer, but thanks to the clever configuration of the the pools, you can almost always find a lounge chair, even when the place is full. Packages can offer significant savings, especially for stays of more than three nights.
