Drift Palm Cove

We loved our stay at Drift, it was perfect for what we needed. Location was great, the apartment was a good size and the layout perfect for our family. We could walk to everywhere in town and the kids loved the pool and spa, would stay there again

We stay at drift for 3 nights in 2 bedroom apartments. Frist things about self check in really complicated we figure out almost 1 hour.we arrive after 6pm so we have to do self chk in.Carpark also confusing because you have to find out your room number frist and can park to your room spot only with dark can't see. We really disappointed with the room it show when we book it 2 bedroom but room almost link together like connecting family room just close the window with blur window so you still can see through and can hear.one of our bath room can't vote the door it broken .hanging on the wall also broken. Bed comfortable close to the restaurant but so expensive to eat in palm cove area.swimpool was big but not heated we saty in.middle May still cold and have spa pool.small heat water. Nice garden.The lady we call before we arrived she is so nice and lively service she can speak Thai.

The studio apartment was spacious, modern, and incredibly comfortable—perfect for a relaxing stay.

Honestly 10/10 what a great stay we had, coffee shops & food right there, beautiful beach & heaps of wildlife walking around, watch your step in the hotel (we were on the 4th floor and had to carry a little lizard down the elevator)

I really enjoyed this place. All amenities were great. Check in was my only issue. Check in was listed at 1400. I arrived shortly after this & I was told the unit wasn't ready. This was shortly rectified. There's also renovations happening at the moment so quite a bit of noise during the day. Otherwise a comfortable relaxing stay

Great location easy access to everything staff accomodating and helpful

Loved all to do with our stay. Atmosphere, cleanliness, staff easy beach access amazing pool and plenty of spots to eat with great price ranges

Hardly ever write reviews but compelled to do so on this occasion. Photos show laminate floor boards, ceiling spot lights and indoor plants - it looked really nice and drew us in. The reality was different. Our 2-bedroom apartment was very, very tired and worn out and in desperate need of updating. All furniture was extremely worn out and needs to be updated. Beige tiled bathrooms, beige/off-white tiles in open plan living/kitchen/dining space, very worn out beige carpets in bedrooms, nil support in dining chairs; you sink into them. The lounge/sofa in living area also needs updating; worn out, stains, nil support. Nil indoor plants. Provide insect/mosquito repellent coils to use in balcony. The iron in the room had a frayed cord with wires visible. We thought it was unsafe to use and took to reception. The brought a different iron (with cap for the water compartment for steam missing) but at least it was safe to use. There is +++ black mould in the rubber seal of the front-loader washing machine and in the detergent dispensing drawer - this can be prevented by good hygiene practices, irrespective of the location being far north QLD, since there was no mould/mildew anywhere else in the apartment. The reception staff were always extremely attentive and helpful!

Room wasnt inviting. Large unit. Needed a good clean. Maybe a electric frying pan. Air cons didn't work to well and the mosquito's were horrible. The staff were nice.
