About this property

Tropika - Absolute Beachfront

Tropika Holiday House is situated in a fabulous location on the absolute beachfront at Mission Beach, only metres from the swimming enclosure yet just a short stroll to the quaint Mission Beach Shopping Village. Great selection of cafes and restaurants for those not wishing to cook at home.

The relaxed furnishings create a warm and inviting atmosphere. The open plan kitchen and living area extend onto the beachside pavilion. Open the bi -fold doors from the living area to the pavilion and enjoy the free flow feeling with spectacular views across the stunning Coral Sea to Dunk Island.

There are 2 queen bedrooms (one ensuited) both opening on to the beachside pavilion. The third bedroom offers 2 single beds. Enjoy the beauty of being lulled to sleep day or night by the sound of the waves as you enjoy your tropical escape. If air conditioning is your preference, it is there for you.

The protected private swimming pool is surrounded by lush tropical gardens. Lazing around the pool reading your favourite novel or just playing with the children will have all those daily stresses disappear in no time. The gardens around the pool are a treat as you are sure to see a Ulysses Butterfly or two and even the impressive Cairns Bird Wing Butterflies.

Tropika offers the true beach holiday home feel. Simple with everything you need to feel as if you are on holidays as soon as you arrive.

This holiday home is 300 m to Mission Beach Shopping Village.

See below.

Firstly thank you for having us. As mentioned before I am a patient person but far from impressed about our stay at the 14 Donkin Lane priority. Upon arrival the lock box was wide open with keys in the box. We proceeded to enter the property to find bifold doors that were seized shut and only 1 door able to be opened, this takes away completely from the ascetics of booking a beach front property. Secondly, unless my partner was handy there would have been no way of getting the middle clear roller blind up on the deck as the roller was jammed. There is a broken leg on one of the cane chairs on the deck. We were advised on check in that the cook top was unusable and broken, we were more than accommodating and were fine to use the bbq for cooking however, upon using only were faced with only 1/3rds of the bbq lighting. It should be noted the range hood is also broken in the kitchen and most of the cupboard doors are that out of line and swollen that they no longer shut properly. The aircon in the main bedroom doesn’t work, YES an electrician was arranged to attend the property for this on Sunday and it blew cold air for NO MORE than 20 mins then went back to not working and blowing NO cold air. Light to the master bedroom mirror doesn’t work along with the light dimmers. The toilet door in the master bedroom doesn’t close (therefore no privacy!) your couldn’t hang cloths in the master bedroom due to not being able to slide/move the wardrobe door. The light in the bedroom with the two single beds kept turning on once the switch was off, the electrician who attended the property did change the bulb. The door to this bedroom also doesn’t close correctly and is nearly off it’s hinges. The roller blind in the main bedroom had no cord on it, it’s either all the way up or fully down and unrolled all over the ground. The bathroom floor to the main bathroom floods the bathroom floor when having a shower so all cloths left on the ground get soaking wet. All beds are that hard that they are nearly not sleep-able. I am currently 6 months pregnant and sleeping with no air conditioning at this time of year and in a hard bed was completely uncomfortable. We travelled all the way from Toowoomba for this stay with our family and can say that it was far from impressing. Based on the above continuing issues with this property and our stay - I am requesting a refund of of AT LEAST 50% for our stay. I think this is more than reasonable. You need to complete maintenance

Needs Maintenance and Repairs

Had a lovely 2 night stay but this property is tired and needs lots of maintenance. It is also very small internally but has a lovely big deck and is in a great location. If you are looking for everything to work, things to be spotlessly clean, modern and of high quality then this is not the place for you. We enjoyed our stay but we did expect the bifold front onto the deck to operate, things to not be as run down, walls needing a paint, blinds broken, pavers around the pool all unstable and generally cleanliness and maintenance to be a lot better. Lots of potential but well past it’s best. It also has no wifi.

Hi Ben, Thank you for your feedback. We are glad you enjoyed your stay at Tropika, it is a great holiday spot. We do pride ourselves on providing a high level of cleanliness so we will definitely bring this to the attention of our cleaning team. With regard to the maintenance, yes the property has been booked back to back for the last couple of months and there has been a bit of damage done which we are currently attending to - including the bifold doors which were not repairable and are being replaced. We look forward to welcoming you back to Tropika again soon and to offering you a higher quality of stay. Tropika does offer a wonderful relaxed beachfront location close to the village which makes it so popular!

Location, this house is it

We had a great stay, very comfortable house, great pool. Sure it could do with a little refresh update but this house is in the prime location, a stroll to town, right near the stinger net (seasonal) a quiet area of Mission beach. Thoroughly enjoyed it all, we will be back.

Beachfront paradise

The house is fantastic and nicer than the pictures suggest. The deck looking out to the ocean is enormous and it’s only a matter of steps to the sand! The hosts were quick to respond and rectify when the bbq wasn’t working properly. Our only complaint was the weather! Thank you for a wonderful stay for my partner and I with elderly parents and young children :)

14 Donkin Lane Mission Beach

Beautiful drive down from Cairns, to find a well presented, more than comfortable holiday home. Fitted out and available all the necessities, with a few extra niceties for us to enjoy. Access to the beach, the local village is ideal, yet still that feeling of privacy. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a home away from home.

Tolle Lage, aber schon abgewohntes Haus.

Das Haus ist leider schon sehr heruntergewohnt. Man darf daher keine großen Ansprüche an Qualität und Sauberkeit legen. Mittlerweile gibt es in dieser Gegend wesentlich hochwertigere Immobilien.

Es tut uns sehr leid, dass Sie dies fühlen, da Sie der erste Gast sind, der auf diese Weise kommentiert. Sie haben uns auch mitgeteilt, dass die Matratzen nicht die besten für Ihre Kinder sind, und wir haben Ihnen sofort eine brandneue Materress liefern lassen. Wir haben nur erstaunliche Rückmeldungen für diese Immobilie und ihren Preis erhalten. Vielleicht können wir Sie das nächste Mal mit einer passenderen Immobilie unterbringen, da wir viele für jeden Geschmack haben.

Soooooo relaxing!!!!

Our family of 6 stayed here for 3 nights and we wish we could have stayed longer. We always love coming back to Mission Beach but this was our first time at Tropika. It was such a beautiful spot and the house was perfect for us with 4 children. It was a very short stroll to the beach and we spent a lot of time taking in the sea views from the huge deck. The house had everything you’d ever need and the kids loved the pool too, even though it was a little fresh because it was winter. We’ll definitely be back to Tropika!!!!

Great Place to stay

We stayed here during Jan 2017. The house is very well situated and is right on Mission beach itself, and also has a lovely pool. The house had been sold when we were there, as evidenced by a sold sticker across the for sale sign out front of the house, so whether the new owners continue to rent remains to be seen. All bedrooms have aircon, and fans in the main living area, with a wonderful verandah out the back of the house which has beautfiul views of the beach itself. Within a short walk there are a number of restaurants and bars, and the castaways resort is just 100 metres along the beach. The only downside we experienced as the table and chairs within the living area, the table was 'wonky" and moved a good deal from side to side on its legs to the extent that we didn't eat at it, preferring to sit outside. The chairs also need replacing, they are scratched and marked, and well past their use by date. That said, the house was great to stay in, beds were comfortable, bathrooms clean, and it is within easy walking distance of all that Mission Beach has to offer. If I were to go back to Mission Beach, I would stay at this property again, and hope that the table and chairs had been replaced.

Wonderful holiday house

This house has been very well renovated to make it a beautiful place to relax and unwind. The position of the house is perfect. Right on the beach but also very private. Enough room for everyone and very well equipped. I would highly recommend it.

Thank Karin, Tropika is well equipped. Sitting on the beachside pavillion is a real treat. You almost feel as if you could touch the beach. Hope you can return again soon than later.
