Amphora - Family Friendly Spacious Unit
Absolutely wonderful week stay at Denis and Annes property. Everything was exactly as described. Clean, very comfortable and the facilities were excellent. Plenty of kitchen equipment, full washing facilities and the bathrooms were large. The beds were so comfortable! I highly recommend and we will definitely be back. On Palm Cove itself, the fishing was superb and a good variety of species to chase. The swim net was a area we used daily. Plenty of restaurants all within walking distance. I am so impressed with everything we have come across this week. Thank you to Denis and Anne for such a wonderful accommodation and allowing us to stay!

❤️ The Beach Shack -3BR Waterfront Resort ❤️WIFI✔️
Matthew was definitely a super host with quick responses to any communication. The apartment was in a great location with water views of Trinity Beach and within a few minutes walk to restaurants and a convenience store. A large resort pool was also a bonus to cool off after busy days sightseeing. Thanks Matt for a great stay.

Swaying Palms and Salt Air—A Dreamy Tropical Haven

Inner City One Bedroom Apartment
Great location, clean and quiet. As a solo female traveller I felt very safe here. Straight accross from the police station and walking distance to everything. Can’t wait to return next year,👌🏾

Paradise at Holloway's Beach
We had an excellent stay at Myranda’s unit. It was spotless inside, and well located close to the beach. A lovely deck. The unit was well equipped and Myranda’s communication was excellent. We would highly recommend this listing.

73 Rydges Plaza Esplanade with Ocean & City Views
Just as pictured, incredible view! The space was open and had plenty of space. Directions were clear and they have really thought of everything! Location is far enough from Cairns center to be quiet but close enough to walk to the center, restaurants and attractions. Very enjoyable stay.

Luxury Stay on the Waterfront. 3 bedroom apartment
What a great stay, I particularly wanted to comment on the little touches that you don’t get very often but make a stay feel like home, there was a loaf of bread and some spreads for breakfast the first day supplied, there was plenty of sauce, salt, pepper, there was all the food wraps as well as sandwich bags, it’s those little touches that make all the difference, even the fact that the cutting knife’s were sharp and there was 2 frypans, 2 chopping boards, everything was excellent and Liz even provided shopping bags, what a legend…

Tropical Resort vibes - northern beaches
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back. The apartment is spacious for two people, with a great balcony and two bathrooms. The kitchen is equipped with all the necessary utensils. The living room also offers plenty of space.

Sylvia and the team were great with communications. It is a well equiped house. The pool is lovely and the view is amazing over the sea. Would come back!

"Namaste" - Private pool oasis in Palm Cove
Nice location, walking distance to Main Street and beach. House is well laid out with great outdoor living. We really enjoyed spending lots of time in this area with our kids. Helpful, responsive hosts, would recommend.

The house located in beautiful place. Very quiet neighbourhood lots to explore and so many different plants behind the house with mountain view. I will recommend to everyone to stay at least once. Thank Evelyn and Rodney couples for your help to extend one day extra when we needed☺️. I will definitely comeback again. SPREAD LOVE☺️

The Beach House
We were lucky to stay at this beautiful beach house on very short notice after other accommodation fell through. Nicola was quick to respond and helped us get into the house within 30 minutes of contact. when we arrived the place was pristine with a lovely homey feel and decor that suited it's tropical beachfront location. Kitchen was extremely well stocked with thoughtful touches like included oils, sauces and washing up material. nothing worse than a stingy host! The back deck was lovely to sit on with views of their very secluded beachfront, it felt like our own personal beach! plenty of room for the 5 of us with a great pool to chill out in. Thanks for having us!

Beach House on Cinderella - absolute beachfront
We were very happy with the location and privacy of the house. It was very well equipped with everything we needed. Great view and loved going to sleep with the sound of the ocean and the birds. Close to the airport and Cairns. Thank you for the opportunity to stay at your place . I would definitely recommend your beach house to my friends and family.

Palm cove is the perfect location for a holiday. Peter and Satina apartment is the perfect place to stay ground floor access to pool and all amenities. We will return.

1101 Harbour Lights with Ocean Views
The location of the apartment and the views are great. The place is just as described & very comfortable. Thomas' responses & communication were always very prompt & helpful. I would highly recommend his place to anyone coming to Cairns.

Trinity Beach Tropical Hideaway
A sprawling home with great views. Kitchen was fabulous. The bedrooms and bathrooms were top notch. The patio area had comfortable seating. Even though the place is a part of a small group of apartments, it felt totally private. Covered car park was a bonus. Hosts are super responsive and helpful. One reaches the place through two flights of narrow stairs. It may be difficult to carry large luggage or if you have mobility issues. Otherwise this is a dream vacation home

Relax at Trinity Beach Getaway, Blue Lagoon.
Amazing stay! The place was spotless, stylish, and had everything we needed. The host was super responsive and went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. Perfect location, close to local attractions. Highly recommend and would book again!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Drift apartments. The unit was a great space. It was very clean, private and a great location. Thomas was a fantastic host and very helpful in all his communications.
