"The 2-bed apartment was spacious for our family of 3 adults for a week in Palm Cove. Staff were friendly and helpful. A local supermarket is just across the road. It's only a few mins walk to the centre of the main street and the beach. After checking in on the first day, we noticed that the washing machine was broken. We were moved to another apartment of the same size. Then the wifi wasn't working in the 2nd apartment. We were given the password to connect to the wifi of the apartment...
