Amphora - Family Friendly Spacious Unit

KathRating, 5 stars5 months ago
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!

Two-Bedroom Apartment Right In Front Of The Beach!

SamanthaRating, 5 stars7 months ago
We had an amazing stay! The place was spotlessly clean and wonderfully quiet, providing everything we needed for a comfortable getaway. It was incredibly spacious for the three of us, and the pool area was a standout—warm, with plenty of shaded spots and a BBQ area, perfect for relaxing. The other guests were delightful, friendly, and always up for a good chat! Our time here felt too short, and we’re already looking forward to our next visit. Highly recommend!

Cairns Waterfront Luxury at Harbourlights

SallyRating, 5 stars2 months ago
I booked Carolyn's apartment for my husband and son who were in Cairns for a fishing charter. They said the view was stunning and the location of the apartment was perfect being right next door to the marina. With a pool and restaurants on the ground level, everything was easy access. The apartment was beautifully decorated, extremely comfortable with everything needed for a great stay in Cairns. Carolyn the host was very helpful with her instructions for getting access and keys - all very straightforward. Carolyn thoughtfully had air con and fans running in the apartment before my husband and son arrived - it was much appreciated with the Cairns heat.

This beautiful property is perfect for a group, with all the bedrooms having their own ensuites.

The Beach House

TomRating, 5 stars1 month ago
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!

Drift Beachfront Resort Suite 2409

MelissaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Thank you for a beautiful stay. The staff were very responsive & waiting for us upon arrival. Balcony overlooks the pool, spa + has ocean glimpses through the trees. It was very relaxing sitting up there, watching the sunset & sunrise. The rooms are maintained well for the age with extra touches like rolled towels, hand cream, soap etc. The kitchen has a pods machine, small dishwasher, double hotplates, microwave. Note no oven. The washing machine, dryer, and towel rack were very handy to ensure dry swimming items. The bedrooms are seperated by glass, offering limited privacy. However, both the rooms have balcony views. Overall, we had a wonderful time. We especially enjoyed swimming in the large lagoon style swimming pool, surrounded by picturesque tropical grounds.

Trinity Beach Tropical Hideaway

MeenakshiRating, 5 stars5 months ago
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
A comfortable living area features two light gray sofas, one adorned with a yellow cushion. A wooden table occupies the center, complemented by a bowl. A white bookshelf displays decorative items. Sunlight filters through partially closed blinds, illuminating the space.
