The room was everything that we expected. It was clean and had everything we needed. Parking was secure and free which was one of the reasons for our booking. It was close to where we needed to be.
The pool looked like it could do with a lick of love.
Great location with spectacular view of the surrounding areas.
Plenty self-parking areas underground and within the property.
Clean room with fully equipped kitchenette.
Raj was super friendly and professional. Recommend for short or long stay.
Very clean room, in a great location with underground parking. Walking distance to the esplanade and restaurants. Lovely staff and reception. We will be back again!!
Staff were incredibly friendly and approachable, very accomodating including allowing a later check out due to a later flight. Easy 15 minute walk to the main esplanade of Cairns. Pool amenities were amazing and the 1 bed apartment had everything you needed for a week away! Would highly recommend!!

For what we paid we expected a cleaner place and bit more care and maintenance put into the property. I was constantly sneezing and getting a runny nose whenever I was in our bedroom, it turns out that our bedhead was extremely dusty - it looks like it has never been cleaned since it was first placed there. Parts of the shower door frame was rusted totally away and you can see inside the metal, quite a large part of the carpet in our bedroom was worn to threadbare. There was a long brown mark on the floor in the living room tiles, it looks like it could be a marks made from the furniture, but also looks terrible.
The staff were lovely and friendly. The location was pretty good, it was about a 10-15min walk to the esplanade cafes and restaurants.

A lot of bugs in the room, floors could have been cleaner, pool needs repairs.
Bed comfortable.
We stayed in a 2 bedroom apartment on the 5th floor with views of the sea. Our host were really lovely and were always on hand to help with. The apartment was large and had everything we needed. It is about a 10/15 minute walk into town which we found very manageable. The apartments are on a roundabout so a little noisy but it didn’t bother us too much. We would definitely stay here again.

It was alright!
We expected from the reviews and pictures that it would be a little nicer. They had kind of a budget reception but very nice and friendly staff. The rooms were good though but very hard beds and pillows. The pool was very dirty the first day but got cleaned to the second day. Nothing special about the pool area but it was calm. Overall an okay stay.

Disliked: Cleanliness
The apartment and pool were not clean. There was even wet towels left in the washing machine. We didn’t swim in the pool because it was so unappealing. For the price it was very disappointing. Location is great.

No milk in the fridge, only two cups that were not cleaned throughout the stay, and no plates or cutlery. Otherwise, a pleasant room.
Nice clean apartments, the staff are really friendly and helpful. Walking distance to the esplanade took about 10mins but if you want to be in the thick of things pick something else.
The pool was cold and small. Mainly just a lap pool. Not great for teenage kids, although the bbq area beside the pool was great for cooking up dinners.
2 bedroom 2 bathroom was actually interconnecting 1 bedroom apartment and a studio. Still suited out purposes fine.
