We had 3 lovely days of eating out, shopping, snorkeling, and walking this amazing area in Cairns. The balcony was a wonderful spot to gather and rest. The staff were very easy to communicate with and helped us whenever we needed it.

Perfect place to stay in Cairns

Property is in an excellent location to visit Cairns, for bars & restaurants, shops and local places of interest. Property comes with everything you need to be comfortable and to self-cater. Private car park space can be accessed from the basement. Feels safe and secure. Property has a nice shared pool and gym facility too. Owner/agent was responsive and helpful. We had a wonderful short stay at the property.

Debbie

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Many issues with lack of general maintenance. Mould on doors, ceiling and mattress smelly. Hot water takes about 5 mins to come through to shower. Advert was a bit misleading as the photos are obviously from a long time ago and it’s not ocean view (unless you go out onto balcony and look to side). Excellent location but seemed expensive considering the dated, stained/mouldy appearance and smell of the place
