Orchid at Temple Resort A Swim out Tropical Oasis

Summary:

Discover this tropical-contemporary escape, one of only a few family-friendly swim-out stays in Palm Cove. Dip straight into the lagoon from the patio, then enjoy alfresco meals by the pool. Each bedroom has its own ensuite, with a full kitchen and air conditioning for added comfort. Enjoy three shared resort pools, an on-site restaurant, day spa and fully equipped gym. Direct beach access brings the sand even closer, with Palm Cove’s cafés, restaurants and shops just a five-minute stroll away.



The Space:

Apartment 102 brings everyday comfort to the swim-out experience, with open-plan living offering large, comfortable sofas and a flat-screen TV, alongside a well-equipped kitchen with a refrigerator, oven, stove, dishwasher and coffee machine. Gather around the dining table indoors, or take meals to the covered patio, where an outdoor dining setting, wicker lounge chairs and a day lounge invite coffee in the tropical air or time with a book. Private sun loungers sit at the water’s edge, with direct swim-out access to the shared lagoon pool whenever a spontaneous dip calls.



The primary bedroom is a welcoming retreat with a king bed, TV, ceiling fan, and ample storage, plus an ensuite with a deep bathtub, two vanities, and separate enclosed shower and toilet spaces for added privacy. The second bedroom also features a king bed, a private balcony overlooking leafy garden views, and its own ensuite with a large vanity and a separate, enclosed shower and toilet. The apartment also has a European laundry with a washing machine and dryer for your convenience.



Three swimming pools, including a grand lagoon, a lap pool, and a kids' pool, wrap around the resort, inviting you to switch off and dive into holiday mode. The resort also includes a restaurant with indoor and alfresco dining, a day spa, and a fully equipped gym. And when the day winds down, take a stroll to the beach and catch the sunset, with direct beach access straight from the resort.



A cot can be provided upon request for families travelling with little ones.
