We live in paradise!
Our home is Port Douglas, far north Queensland, Australia, one hour drive north of Cairns. Our home is a two bedroom villa surrounded by tropical gardens and a private pool, 70 metres walk to 4 Mile Beach. We live close to the Daintree Rainforest (access by car) and the Great Barrier Reef. We are a friendly, well travelled, non smoking, retired couple escaping Sydney for a more relaxing lifestyle. We leave a busy life and enjoy the great outdoors playing golf, tennis, table tennis, swimming, cycling, walking to name a few. We also enjoy the occasional game of cards and board games. We love to host interesting, hard working travellers who wish to explore this beautiful part of Australia.
