Beachfront hotels in Port Douglas place you directly on Four Mile Beach, with properties like Sheraton Grand Mirage Resort offering the only beachfront position on this stretch of sand. Expect lagoon-style pools with swim-up bars at Oaks Port Douglas Resort and Ramada Resort by Wyndham, plus private beach areas at Thala Beach Nature Reserve and Mandalay Luxury Beachfront Apartments. Room rates vary widely-from mid-range options around AUD 200 per night to five-star retreats exceeding AUD 400 nightly-so there's a fit for most budgets, especially when you account for free parking and airport shuttles included at many properties.
