Villas

Setting the benchmark for tropical living

Renowned for decades as “the end of the line” in North Queensland, Port
Douglas is the place to relax and escape the madding crowds. Our small,

quiet village has so many simple pleasures to offer, fringed by Four Mile
Beach with the Coral Sea on one side and the world’s oldest rainforest
on the other.
For 40 years, John Morris and his family have been shaping Port Douglas
with a long history of successful significant property projects. Extensive

tropical landscaping and tasteful design have always been a hallmark, and
this is exemplified in the understated yet contemporary architecture of

this latest project, with construction now well advanced with the first
villas ready for occupation mid 2021.
“Although we have done many projects, this is one of our most exciting as
it is the last piece of land left in Port Douglas where new developments
such as Escape Villas can take place.”

“A simple and elegant lifestyle Escape Villas
seems to encompass it all”

The land overlooks the Mirage Golf Course and the waters of the Mi-
rage lagoon and is framed by a backdrop of spectacular rainforest moun-
tains. He continues, “Understanding the tropical climate and aspect is
key. Each villa has been designed for luxe and low maintenance, with
high ceilings and deep eves to best capture breezes and of course the

views.” Those lucky enough to secure one of these villas will also receive

a five-year membership for gym, swim and tennis at the adjacent Mirage
Country Club.
If you are looking to enjoy a simple and elegant tropical lifestyle, Escape
Villas seems to encompass it all. After all, living like a local here is a rich
tapestry. Casual, classy dining at one of the many restaurants, walks on
the headland trail perched above the sea to the beach or heading out to

crystal clear reef waters for snorkelling or fishing.
And who wouldn’t want to live like this?
