The Pink Flamingo and Port Douglas

Driving from Cairns up the Captain Cook Highway along the coast we reached the sleepy coastal town of Port Douglas, the jumping off spot for the Great Barrier Reef. Set in a tropical setting, the foliage is lush and green with miles of beautiful Four Mile Beach to walk along. The marina is a buzz of activity each morning as the boats load up passengers for the trip out to the reef. The main street is lined with restaurants and shops offering all kinds of trinkets. The little church called "Saint Mary's by the Sea" sits near the waters edge and the view out the window above the altar is breathtaking.
Our resort, The Pink Flamingo was a small boutique resort set in beautiful tropical gardens. Our suite, #5 was located down the garden path and was very comfortable and offered us lots of privacy. Our studio had a large sitting area with a couch and table, a large master suite bedroom with a bath and a nice kitchen. Outside we a small table and chairs, a hammock and a large outdoor tub and shower. A large pool and bar area surrounded by tropical plants provided a nice spot for a glass of wine.
We used the palm gardens in the back for our wedding and took many of the photos in the gardens and around the beautiful pool. The staff even surprised us with flower petals on our bed and a bottle of bubbly in the frig when we returned after having dinner the night of our wedding.
The Pink Flamingo was the perfect spot for us and our wedding in Port Douglas.
