Molori Great Barrier Reef

Port Douglas, Australia

Architecturally sublime Port Douglas villa Molori Great Barrier Reef resembles a boutique concrete bunker adapted to life in the tropics. The interior’s clean lines, designer furnishings and neutral tones blend seamlessly with the outside world, brought together when the property’s full-length glass doors are retracted. The outdoor area has an infinity pool, Jacuzzi, rain shower and come hither relaxation areas furnished with day-beds and sunloungers. Spend slothful days poolside, or for the energetic walks along the famous Four Mile Beach, trips into laid-back Port Douglas, and snorkelling and scuba diving adventures on the Great Barrier Reef beckon. The staff, including a private chef, ensures that guests are left wanting for nothing. We could get used to la vida Molori...
