My stay at the resort was overall pleasant. The spacious apartment was perfect for my family, and I appreciated the close proximity to various attractions. However, the noisy air conditioning and the loud evening music dampened the experience a bit. While the restaurant offered great food, the outdoor area could use some enhancements to make it more inviting.

I enjoyed a lovely stay at the hotel with my family in a spacious two-bedroom apartment that was perfect for us. The pool was a fantastic retreat, often just for us, and the staff was consistently welcoming and helpful. However, I did have some concerns about the shower's water management and the uncomfortable bed which rolled to the middle. Overall, it was a good experience, and I'd consider returning for another visit.

Sovereign Resort is a solid choice for anyone looking to unwind after a long day, especially if you're coming from the sea. The rooms are spacious and well-appointed, making it easy to relax, and the restaurant serves up hearty meals. However, the pool could use better maintenance, and there's a small charge for the shuttle that's advertised as free. Overall, great value for the money!

Staying at the Sovereign hotel in Cooktown was a pleasant experience overall. The staff were welcoming, and the cleanliness of our room was impressive, always neat when we returned from exploring. The balcony offered a nice view of the pool area, though not very private. Dining at the on-site restaurant was a letdown for us, as we faced long wait times for our meals on two visits. Overall, it's a cozy spot, but they could improve their dining service.

My stay at the Sovereign Resort was wonderful overall. The spacious room decorated with beautiful aboriginal artworks provided a comfortable atmosphere, and the outdoor balcony with a view of the pool was a delightful spot to watch sunsets. However, I did encounter some service challenges that affected my experience. While the location was convenient, I found certain amenities lacking, which was surprising for a resort.
