The staff is amazing. Beautiful area. Great location for downtown activities if you don't mind a 10-15 walk along the ocean boardwalk.

Really nice room with nice views. Close to shops and can walk to most tourist spots and nice walking along the esplanade. Planes do fly over during the day but didn’t really bother us. Can highly recommend

We stayed from Nov 12 to 17th in a 2 bedroom apartment overlooking the pool and ocean. We had a wonderful time in this holiday apartment and had everything we needed - and there were loads of nice touches - like coffee, tea bags, some milk etc and dishwasher tablets. Having laundry in the unit was a major plus! Loads of beautiful birds and fruit bats can be seen from the balcony! I really truly appreciated this place for our time in Cairns.

Spacious apartment a little walk from CBD

A little further from downtown, but walkable, opposite the Esplanade and near a playground. Lovely pool. Apartment was spacious.

Great Communication prior to our stay. Clear instructions on how to enter premises and check in. Two bedroom apartment was spacious for our family of 5, including 3 teenagers. Cooking facilities were in good working order and the full size fridge with freezer was great. Laundry in apartment was very handy for washing and drying towels and was stocked with laundry detergent. One more roll of toilet paper would have been great 😃

Ideal base just out of main CBD, flat picturesque walk to heart of Cairns and it's shops and markets. Very easy access to main highways heading north or south. Close to airport. Onsite management available and very personable. We arrived out of hours, clear instructions given to access unit. Kept informed of any maintainance (upgraded balcony lights). Clean pool, barbecue area, well maintained gardens and site.Everything you need for your stay and good welcome pack to get you started.

We checked in over the weekend; staff wrote me to inform they aren't at the desk on weekends but sent great detailed information on how to check in. Nice location, quiet and next to a hotel which made for easy pick ups for tours that offered it. There were three of us and we all slept well, enjoyed the view and appreciated having a clean place to come back to. We only got one key, so on the day we split up we had to arrange amongst ourselves who would have the key and ensure they were home so we could be let in. That was easy enough for us to do, but may have asked for a second key if we were staying longer. We would definitely stay here again. Thank you!

4/10 Fair

(1) Air conditioning did not work properly and did not cool down room adequately. There was a sign on air conditioning switch saying to not turn it down below 24 degrees as it would cause water to leak in through ceiling. It appears this is an ongoing issue. (2) Toilet seat would not stay in up position. (3) Bed sagged in the middle if you rolled towards middle of bed. (4) Apartment had musty smell on entering. Bedroom and apartment were adequate size and location of property was reasonable being on the Esplanade.
