[Where to Stay] Palm Cove, Australia

Saturday, June 11, 2016


Pullman Palm Cove Sea Temple Resort & Spa 

Finding accommodations in a city that you have never visited (and is on the other side of the world) can be tough. So when we were planning our trip to Palm Cove, I spent a lot of time searching various travel sites and corresponding with Australian travel agencies to find what would work best for our needs. Since we were traveling with 6 adults, we decided it was best to rent a house or condo that we could share. We were so pleasantly surprised when we arrived at the Pullman Palm Cove Sea Temple Resort, as it definitely makes a great first impression. 

 

The way the condo was set up, worked really well for us and I would highly recommend it for anyone traveling with family or a group. There was a shared entrance, and to the left was an entirely separate Master suite, equipped with it's own bathroom, bedroom and both suites connected back on the balcony. To the right was the main living area, the 2nd and 3rd bedroom, bathroom, as well as laundry facilities. 


The view from the balcony overlooked the main pool and out to the ocean.
 
 

We spent 4 week nights here, and we got a great price of $310 AUD / night, which was well worth it!
So, if you are looking to visit Cairns or surrounding area, I would recommend a visit (or stay) in Palm Cove. It was so peaceful and relaxing! And the poolside restaurant has a pulled pork sandwich that's to die for! Looking back on these memories has me itching to go back!! 
'Til we meet again Palm Cove.

[What to Wear] Palm Cove, Australia

Thursday, June 9, 2016

I've been dreaming about our next vacation, and it has me reflecting on our trip to Australia in 2013. We hopped on one plane to next, discovering different cities and beautiful beaches.

One of my favourites was Palm Cove, Queensland - it was our own little private oasis. It is a small town between Cairns and Port Douglas, and I would highly suggest it to anyone planning a visit to the Great Barrier Reef!


 

One of the first questions I always have when going to a new destination is, "what should I wear"?
So, I'm here to give you some helpful tips on what to wear in Palm Cove. 

  • CROP TOP
  • DENIM CUTOFFS
  • SLIDES
  • SUNNIES
  • STRAW FEDORA
  • CROSS-BODY BAG 

The key is light-weight clothes that you can just throw on and still feel put together.

Get me out of here!

Wednesday, February 5, 2014

It is currently snowing, and I am officially done with winter. It has been one of the coldest winter's I can remember and I am definitely hoping to take off to a warm, sunny beach sometime soon! 

As seen in my 2014 bucket list, I really wanted to go to Dominican Republic this year with my husband and enjoy our 2 year anniversary on a beautiful white sand beach. But of course while looking through several travel sites, there are so many places I would love to see! So, I need your suggestions for a budget friendly, All-inclusive beach holiday, with a little adventure.
Here are the options I was looking at...

Dominican Republic - Punta Cana

Costa Rica

Mexico - Acapulco, Riviera Maya, Tulum


Have you stayed at a rental home vs. resort? What was your experience?
