Palm Cove Easter Break

02.04.2008

Engineering Surveys Surveyors and partners were recently treated to a tropical  paradise getaway at Palm Cove, far north Queensland over the Easter break.  It was hard to wipe the smiles off all concerned as the laid back tropical lifestyle kicked in.  Staff stayed at the Sebel Reef House and Spa:  http://www.reefhouse.com.au/  and were forced to endure regular dips in the 3 on-site pools, impressive accommodation, and various pampering treatments from the massage & spa on-site health gurus.
