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 o er, fringed by Four Mile
Beach with the Coral Sea on one side and the world’s oldest rainforest
on the other.
For 50 years, John Morris and his family have been shaping Port Douglas
with a long history of signi cant and successful property projects. is
experience shows in the rst villas completed to date - three of sixteen
individual designs. Lush tropical gardens are the backdrop for luxe, low
maintenance design, an understated yet contemporary architecture that
brings the outside in.
“Although we have done many projects, this is the one that I’m
most excited about. It’s brought together years of experience with
our partners and team, and as one of the last pieces of land left in
Port, its bringing to life a whole new feel for this part of Port.”
Looking over the Mirage Golf Course and waterways, the view is
framed by a backdrop of spectacular rainforest mountains. He continues,
“Understanding the tropical climate and aspect is key. Each villa has been
designed for its site considering views and breezes, with high ceilings and
deep eves and innovative green-energy inclusions.” Because each villa
is unique, we are selling these complete with full titles and individual
pricing. Owners also receive a ve-year membership for gym, swim and
tennis at the adjacent Mirage Country Club.
For a simple and elegant tropical lifestyle, Escape Villas seems to encom-
pass it all. After all, living like a local here is a rich tapestry from 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 shing.
And who wouldn’t want to live like this?
