Set directly on the shoreline in one of Tropical North Queensland’s most coveted coastal villages, Alamanda Palm Cove by Lancemore offers a rare beachfront sanctuary just 25 minutes north of Cairns. As the only Palm Cove accommodation with absolute beach frontage, Alamanda pairs generous space with relaxed luxury and an unbeatable location.
Consistently ranked in TripAdvisor's Top 5 hotels across Australia, Alamanda Palm Cove has earned this recognition through generously proportioned apartments, thoughtful service, and an enviable position right on the sand.
At the heart of the experience is space – the kind that allows you to slow down, settle in, and feel at ease.
One-bedroom apartments begin at an impressive 85 square metres, extending to expansive four-bedroom residences of up to 250 square metres. To put this in perspective, the average new one-bedroom apartment measures just 50 square metres or less, making Alamanda's accommodations almost twice the size. The result is a stay that feels less like a hotel and more like a private coastal residence.
Whether you’re planning a romantic escape, a family holiday, or time away with friends, this accommodation in Palm Cove offers a sense of calm, privacy, and comfort that invites longer stays and unhurried days.
Alamanda holds a unique place in Palm Cove as the only Palm Cove beachfront accommodation, offering direct access to soft white sand with the Coral Sea just moments away.
At your Palm Cove accommodation with a beachfront position, floor-to-ceiling glass doors open to private balconies or patios, framing sweeping ocean views or lush tropical gardens and drawing natural light throughout your apartment.
Wake to gentle waves, enjoy morning coffee overlooking turquoise water, and wander along the shoreline at sunset as the sky softens to pink and gold.
Here, the beach becomes part of daily life – easy, intimate, and ever-present.
