Things To Do

Dining

The Sebel Reef House and Spa creates 'The Reef House Experience', and food & dining and relaxing with a beverage is an integral part of this experience.

Reef House Restaurant: Set on a large covered wooden deck overlooking a palm lined esplanade and white sandy beach, our signature restaurant enjoys unsurpassed ocean views and gentle sea breezes.

This superb setting alone would be reason enough to visit, however the cuisine created by Executive Chef Philip Mitchell stands out as a highlight of the "Reef House experience".

Philip's inspired menu dispels the common notion that hotels cannot maintain innovative, quality cuisine. In true boutique style, Philip sources produce from local waters and the Atherton Tablelands, making regular trips to nearby markets to hand-pick the freshest ingredients.
 
Focusing on this prime local produce, the menu has an eclectic feel with Mediterranean, Asian and traditional influences blending to create a truly unique modern Australian cuisine. Careful preparation of the individual ingredients and simple execution in their combination is the key to Philip Mitchell's creations, reflecting the very best the region has to offer.
 
Open daily for breakfast, lunch and dinner, Reef House Restaurant is a popular up market venue for intimate gatherings of all sizes and attracts a diverse range of discerning clientele from around the world. The experienced service team provides attentive yet unobtrusive assistance, with astute recommendations at the ready if required.

The Poolside Cafe: Situated alongside a pristine blue pool and cascading waterfall this is a lovely sheltered area which is surrounded by lush tropical gardens. Open daily for lunch.

The Brigadier's Bar: Make yourself at home - help yourself to this fully stocked bar which operates on a unique honesty system. The bar is a relaxing, semi-outdoor area with comfy couches, wooden outdoor furniture, a collection of artifacts from the Brigadier's travels, and a comprehensive selection of newspapers, games and magazines.

Activities

Palm Cove Village - where the rainforest meets the sea; where the white sands beckon and the palm trees sway in the tropical breeze; where the everyday ends and the extraordinary begins.

Just twenty minutes north of Cairns International Airport, cosmopolitan Palm Cove Village is ideally located for exploring the magical attractions of Tropical North Queensland.

Set sail for the colorful coral gardens of the Great Barrier Reef directly from Palm Cove jetty. Take a journey through the ancient rainforests of the Daintree and Cape Tribulation or head for the hills and the natural wonders of the Atherton Tablelands.
 
Enjoy a round of golf on a Master's standard course. Get your ticket to adventure with white-water rafting or a 4WD safari. Or simply relax on our palm-fringed beach and contemplate the Coral Sea.

Close to Palm Cove, there's so much to see and do that the hardest part of your holiday could be deciding what not to do. And in the Village itself - where no building is higher than the coconut palms - you'll find restaurants, village shopping, bars and cafes.

The Sebel Reef House & Spa: where romance and relaxation go hand in hand.
