Beach house vacation rentals in Cairns

This house was everything that we needed for a peaceful trip away to FNQ. Our host, Cameron, was amazing at communicating and helping with local information, especially as the region was dealing with Cyclone Jasper and the aftermath prior to our visit. The pool served us well, good surrounds, peaceful and clean. We loved it so much that we are planning another trip at the end of the year.

The property was perfect for myself, my husband and our toddler. It was great having our own pool to swim in. Just a short walk to the shops and such a beautiful view of the tropics. The outdoor bathroom was an added touch of character. The whole property felt like we were in Bali. Highly recommend if you want something a bit different to resort living!

Thank you Patrick!! It is a shame this place has been sold, otherwise we would definitely book again in future. The perfect getaway for 2, close walking distance to Palm cove restaurants and beachfront. Immaculate home. Incredible value for money compared to similar options that weren’t as close to the beach. Highly memorable experience.

Thank you, Lee, for your accommodation during my daughter's wedding. The accommodation was close to shops and venues driving that we needed. Enjoyed the use of the pool with the Grandchildren visiting during our stay. communication with Lee was excellent. would definitely stay here again.

Really beautiful, well maintained property. Host was very responsive and accommodating. My Mum's first experience of an Airbnb, her feedback on Nadia place - like home away from home, but extra special.

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.

Our stay at Manyana, Clifton Beach was a fantastic enjoyable week. The home was beautiful inside, very modern and tastefully furnished and decorated, very comfortable and roomy, and spotlessly clean, and the swimming pool was also very clean and a favourite for all of us. We were in easy walking distance to the local beach and shops, and only a few easy kilometres walk to Palm Cove. Fabian and his team were friendly and immediately responsive for any inquiries, and the welcome package awaiting us was the best and most extensive we have ever received at any of the many other airbnbs we have stayed. Thank you so very much for all the goodies and starter supplies Fabian. It made a big difference to us after a long drive getting there. A great home, beautiful surroundings and excellent hosts, made our stay very enjoyable and memorable. If your ever in the North, I strongly recommend you stay at Manyama. We will definitely be back.

We had an amazing family break at Michael's house. The set up was just perfect for a family of 5 and the kids absolutely loved pool and spent hours in it ( heated to the perfect temperature). The outside undercover area was fantastic to relax, and the kids thought the outside tv was really cool. Michael was a brilliant host and was extremely helpful both before and during the stay. We will be back.

This house is simply outstanding. Unhindered views of the Coral Sea and a couple of minutes walk from the beautiful Trinity Beach and all of its amenities. Great base for the awesome activities in and around Cairns. Swimming pool and its deck with its tropical tree background was very special. House was well equipped, like staying at a best friend’s house and that’s exactly what it felt like. Small stuff provided eg: salt, pepper, paper towel, cling wrap, hand soap, dish tabs, shampoo etc makes such a difference. Julie and Nathan were super responsive and everybody we met throughout our stay at the house were incredibly friendly and helpful and we could not have felt more looked after and at home. Thank you so much Julie & Nathan for sharing a very special home with us. PS. I was the overall pool winner. Not achieved such victories since I was 16. My sons are still insisting on a re-match in disbelief of their now semi-cool mum’s previously unbeknownst skill set. No Xbox’s in my day!

Beautiful house, so peaceful. Exactly what we wanted, the kids loved the pool. Great communication from host, would highly recommend to anyone looking for a peaceful relaxing getaway, the house is perfect. thank you for having us 😀

What a lovely stay. Well equipped kitchen. Lots of room the view is spectacular. The gardens are beautiful.

We had the most memorable few days staying at this gorgeous property - plenty of space to relax, and perfectly kitted out for a super fun time with friends. Everything is of high quality and Graham and Leigh provided thoughtful touches as well as suggestions of what to do in the area. We absolutely loved it and can highly recommend it - it is just out of Cairns so perfect to nip into town, but Holloways has the feel of a tropical island and the house itself is just choice. We hope to be back soon!

The location was stunning. There was a lovely swimming pool and a spacious veranda looking out onto the sea. It was very peaceful and the house was immaculate. The beach was a five minute walk away. We had a lovely break and couldn't have asked for anything more.

We had a fantastic stay at Thomas' place. 2 families fit well, clean, well equipped kitchen, nespresso coffee, great pool and BBQ, clean linen, good laundry, seperate media room. Quiet Location at end of no through road, though still walking distance to water, cafes and ice-cream! Happily recommend this house. The hosts communicated promptly, and all instructions were clear and timely. Appreciate the few kids toys and desk area. We would stay there again.

Had a wonderful family stay over Christmas and New Year at Clifton Beach in this property. It had all the amenities we required and we were able to enjoy some quality time with our extended family which we had not seen for 5 years.

We had an amazing few days, the place was beautiful and close to everything we needed. If we ever have to travel to Trinity Beach again I will definitely search for this accommodation first. The only issue and one that our host Courtney could do nothing about was the weather. ☔️ Otherwise we have 5 stars for our stay.

We really loved this pearl with the beutifull view. Really great atmosphere inside the house with art (some by the owner) and quirky stuff everywhere. Easy to get on trips and head out on tours in the area, and with at nice neighbourhood pub. We quickly got used to the heat and enjoyed the nice garden with its rich variaty of animals. We would come again if we had the chance 🌴🌴🌴

Probably one of the best holiday rentals we have stayed in - and we have stayed in a lot! Robbie is the perfect host - she provides excellent recommendations, is very friendly and responsive, and is very generous with all of the extras she provides for guests. The house is high quality - made well and everything works. It was exactly what we needed for our week-long stay. We loved the heated pool and my 3 year old even learnt to swim with floaties in there! Thank you Robbie! We had the best time!

It was a good experience staying at place ,

We had the most wonderful stay at Rainwood Retreat. The location, nestled in the rainforest near Trinity Beach, is absolutely magical – peaceful, lush, and full of life. A 750-meter path winds through the forest and takes you directly to the beach. The house is tastefully decorated with a sense of barefoot luxury, calm, and peaceful. Tom and Rhianne had prepared the place in such a thoughtful way that we instantly felt at home the moment we stepped through the door. The beds are very comfortable, with high-quality duvets and pillows, and we enjoyed a restful sleep every night. The spacious balcony features a BBQ and invites relaxed evenings surrounded by the sounds of nature. The kitchen is well-equipped and very functional. With nature right outside your door and a lovely balcony to enjoy your days, this was a stay we’ll remember for a long time – and already miss. We truly hope to return one day.

We had the most amazing time visiting Palm Cove staying at Kellies house. Close to the bus to get down to Cairn city and also 5 minute walk to the beach.

thank you for a wonderful vacation for our family of 5. House was perfect with parents at one end and kids bedrooms and bathroom at other end of house. Out-door BBQ space was great and pool was used every day. Kitchen had everything we needed - from coffee machine, smoothie/food processor and air fryer. Location is perfect - a very short walk to all Palm Cove has to offer. Also - thank you for flexibility on check out time. With our afternoon flight it was really appreciated.

Brandon was a lovely host. We had some issues with the wifi at certain points during our stay and Brandon was very quick to respond and come over to resolve the issue. The house itself was clean and welcoming. It is located on a peaceful residential street. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

We are delightful to be the first guest, the place was great. As a Airbnb host before I knew Christ has done all his best to prepare and make sure his place is comfortable. Everything looks tidy and clean and we are enjoying every second in the house. This is a peaceful suburb with nice neighbourhood, pretty close to restaurants and cafe within 15mins walking distance. Coles will be just 5 mins drive.
