Noticed something strange about the way your partner has been acting? Like, whenever you ask them something like, "How was your day?" or, "Is there anything you want me to pick up from the shops?" they respond, "Port Douglas! Port Douglas! PORT DOUGLAS!!!"

Don't worry. Nothing's terribly wrong. The two of you are just in dire need of a holiday, and they happen to be giving a not-so-subtle hint as to where they'd like to go. $499 is all you need for the two of you to make tracks to tropical Port Douglas, with five nights at Villa San Michele.

Constantly rated 4 stars or higher and recent recipient of a 2012 Certificate of Excellence from TripAdvisor, Villa San Michele provides a luxurious base from which to explore iconic Port Douglas attractions like the Great Barrier Reef and Daintree Rainforest. Stay in a Mediterranean-style One Bedroom Apartment with air-conditioning, kitchenette, ensuite and your own private balcony, overlooking the lush tropical gardens.

Villa San Michele is located on the vibrant Macrossan Street, providing central access to boutique shopping and great restaurants, bars, clubs and bistros – so you'll never be short on things to do. Relax with a 2-for-1 Sunset Cruise with Tropical Journeys and $90 credit to put towards massage treatments at Exclusive Spas Australia.

You don't even need to leave the resort! Laze by one of the two saltwater swimming pools (one is heated!), bubble away in the spa or enjoy a poolside BBQ on a balmy afternoon. On your final day, sleep in with a checkout of 11.30am. 

Villa San Michele offers self-contained accommodation for visitors in search of a relaxing retreat in the centre of the village. Port Douglas is the gateway to the Great Barrier Reef and is a tropical oasis featuring boutique shops, local markets, sidewalk cafes and award winning restaurants. Perfectly located hjust one hour's drive north of Cairns via a spectacular coastal road, surrounded by world heritage rainforest and the Coral Sea.
