Clean and spacious room, comfortable stay, and a great location. Staff were friendly and helpful. Would stay again.

The girls at reception were extremely helpful, friendly and professional.

Nice studio apartment overlooking garden. Kitchen well supplied. Comfy bed.

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.

The room could have been cleaner on arrival, however overall we were happy with our stay.

Room itself was not clean. Dust behind the bedside tables, tv unit and on the side of the washing machine. Dust all over the ironing board. Beach towels provided to us with stains. Dryer door kept falling off. Great location and nice pool.

Room was clean and tidy, disappointed that the towels only were replaced after 5 days but the bed sheep were not. No WiFi

Wir hatten einen wundervollen Aufenthalt im The Drift in Palm Cove, Queensland. Die Anlage ist insgesamt sehr schön gestaltet – der Poolbereich und der Garten sind gepflegt und laden wunderbar zum Entspannen ein. Besonders hervorzuheben ist der Empfang an der Rezeption: ausgesprochen freundlich, herzlich und jederzeit sehr hilfsbereit. Es war bereits unser dritter Aufenthalt im The Drift, und wir hatten erneut dasselbe Zimmer gebucht wie im letzten Jahr, was für uns ein Zeichen dafür ist, dass wir uns hier grundsätzlich sehr wohlfühlen. Positiv aufgefallen ist uns, dass die Küchenausstattung verbessert wurde – es gibt nun mehr Besteck, Teller und Kochutensilien, was das Selbstversorgen deutlich angenehmer macht. Allerdings möchten wir auch ehrlich anmerken, dass die Sauberkeit des Zimmers diesmal nicht ganz unseren Erwartungen entsprochen hat. Gerade in einigen Ecken hätte es etwas gründlicher sein können, was wir im Vergleich zu unserem Aufenthalt im letzten Jahr schade fanden. Zudem sind die Möbel inzwischen deutlich abgenutzt, und sowohl das Mobiliar als auch das Zimmer insgesamt könnten eine Renovierung sowie einen frischen Anstrich gut vertragen. Man sieht kleinere Ausbesserungsarbeiten, die nicht wirklich störend sind, aber vielleicht ein Hinweis darauf, dass das Zimmer insgesamt einmal umfassend überholt werden sollte. Trotz dieser Punkte ist die Anlage nach wie vor sehr schön, und das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis stimmt absolut.

The apartment was adequate for our needs, clean, comfortable and with extras like washing machine and dryer, microwave/airfryer/convection plus hotplates. The pool area is lovely and access to everything was an easy walk plus right on the beach. We would definitely go back.

I had an amazing stay at Drift. From the moment I arrived, the atmosphere felt calm, stylish, and welcoming. The design is modern and minimal yet incredibly comfortable, and every detail feels thoughtfully curated. My room was spotless, cozy, and beautifully put together — the kind of space you look forward to coming back to after a long day. The bed was especially comfortable, and the little touches throughout the room made a big difference. The staff were friendly, professional, and always happy to help with anything I needed. Check-in and check-out were seamless, and the overall vibe of the hotel was relaxed but refined. The location was perfect as well — easy to get around, with great spots to eat and explore nearby. I’d definitely stay at Drift again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable, stylish, and memorable place to stay.

I loved everything about Drift Palm Cove! Absolutely stunning and comfortable and beautiful. The staff was out of this world amazing to us and so very helpful in every aspect!!

Great pool

Room was spotless and staff was amazing.

The room was spotless and the amenities were excellent. We were given extra linen upon request. We really enjoyed our stay at this place.

The room bland, furniture sub standard for a large resort &!a weird floorplan. Pool was great. Staff were friendly

Very happy with my stay at Drift Palm Cove. The apartment was very spacious,clean and comfortable. It had everything I needed. The resort itself was wonderful especially the pool area and the location was great. The staff were friendly and courteous. Will definitely stay here again.

Great!!

Loved our stay! When we arrived the hotel seen multiple bookings with the same surname, they upgraded the other room to a two bedroom so we could be on the same floor, without being asked, amazing service. The apartments were great (beds a little on the harder side), the pool is amazing, walking distance to everything. We will be back :)

Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing affordable holiday that is pleasant and clean and close by many food options and grocery store, room has kitchen so can also cook

We had a nice time staying at Drift. Comfortable and close to cafes, beach and friendly reception.
