Waterfront vacation rentals in Palm Cove

A lovely couple of nights staying here! In an ideal location. The apartment has great facilities! It’s very spacious, would definitely recommend staying here!

Apartment is beautiful. Location is perfectl, right above the restaraunts and on the waterfront. Easy stroll to the Esplanade. Great views of the boats coming and going from marina. We have stayed here twice and will stay again.

2 Norwegians arriving from Sydney on 3 weeks holiday in Australia. Fantastic location only a public bus trip fram Cairns. The only negative is the possibility to swim in the ocean.

Perfect stay! Such an amazing location, easy to walk to everything, fun boardwalk, and delicious restaurants!

cute apartment, very comfortable. Jodie left us a bottle of wine upon our arrival. we asked for an early check in and late check out and Jodie was able to accommodate us. Great experience. Thanks!

We had a lovely stay at Cheryl's place. The location was great with walking distance to the cafe, seaview and night market. The place was clean and got everything we needed. Would recommend!

what am amazing find..great location..on the esplanade. Everything is walkable including the port for a lot of the boat tours. Great ocean views from the balcony and the master bedroom. the place very much matches the description of the photos. Easy instructions to get into the condo. we had trouble with the key one of the days and it was replaced promptly. very responsive and easy to communicate. Would definitely come back here again.

We had a wonderful family holiday at Dianne’s place. The apartment was perfect for our family with two young toddlers, beautiful setting, clean, comfortable and all the extras for kids, toys, pool toys and a great outdoor spa bath. We had a lot of fun at the resort beach pool and the location in Palm Cove is perfect, by the beach and restaurants. Would definitely recommend and would love to go back.

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 🌴🌴🌴

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

Thank you Nadia for a great stay! Loved all the little features like toys and books for the kids. My four year old was obsessed with the pool! We hope to return again 🙏

We just finished up an amazing 1.5 weeks at Renee's beautiful place. We're a family of 4 (2 teenagers, 2 adults) and this house was perfect! We had enough room to spread out but also great common areas to share meals, conversation and games. The kitchen had everything we needed for cooking - dishes, many different appliances, pots/pans as well as basic staples like olive oil. The outdoor spaces were lovely; the landscaping is beautiful and the large deck became our favorite place to hang out and watch the river, butterflies and birds. The layout was great for us - two of the bedrooms are connected to the main house via the deck so it gave everyone their own space. We had a chance to go swimming in the river which our kids loved. We arrived to Cairns very early & Renee was gracious enough to allow us to check in early which we appreciated after 28hrs of travel! We would definitely stay here again - we were sorry to leave!

What a dream house. Most picturesque place we've ever stayed at. The morning sunrises were breathtaking, the house pristine. Lots of space to relax, indoor and out. The backyard space was perfect for my kids (8, 5 and 2) to stretch their legs while the adults could relax on the covered outdoor patio. It was a magical holiday period with my family and the house was a large reason why. We only wished we could have enjoyed the house more during the day with all of our area trips- guess that means we need to book a trip back! Certainly a place we would stay at again. Graham and LL were super friendly and helpful. We loved it and HIGHLY recommend this place to anyone looking for a beautiful, private place right on the water. Stay for a family of 5, 2 adults and 3 kids.

Great location! Views, outdoor and indoor entertaining, multiple living spaces and a great pool. Perfect for multiple families staying together. This place is amazing So close to beach and house is equipped with everything. Would highly recommend. Thank you Barbara April 2025

What a wonderful stay! Beautiful home, lots of space. The house was very well appointed for our large group. We cooked two nights and went to local restaurants on the other nights. The pool was wonderful. The beach in front is beautiful. Watching the flying foxes fly overhead at sunset is unbelievable. Saw some wallabies as well in the neighborhood. What an amazing stay. Highly recommended. Convenient to downtown Cairns.

Great place and great communication from the hosts.

Lovely apartment overlooking green garden area. Well equipped, comfortable beds and quality linens. Great pool and gym. Hosts kept in touch to check all was ok, could not have been more helpful. Close to shops and tours. We had a fantastic stay and would definitely recommend.

Great Stay in Apartment. Clean and nice like in description. Beautiful location - next to the beach and Restaurant. Supermarket on the oppside side of the Street. everything Was great. thanks Thomas

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.

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

it would not hurt to provide garbage bags and laundry detergent.

We traveled to Cairns for a family vacation! Christine’s place was top notch in terms of location and surroundings with very happening cafes & restaurants just around the corner. Moreover, we spent 2 days just enjoying the property with great ocean views and coffee ! Pool & tennis lawn added more entertainment! This relaxed city & the property has given our family a core travel memory! Highly recommend this property a great family vacation living experience !

Paul's unit is in a perfect location. We canceled our car rental because everything is very walkable. Great restaurants, markets, shopping, and activities in the area. The balcony has a beautiful view of the esplanade. Loved hanging out at dusk watching the fruit bats. We will stay here again if we return to Cairns for a holiday! Recommend Passions of Paradise for snorkel/dive coral reef. Great staff and a wonderful boat! Thanks, Paul!

was a great place to stay with my 3 boys. the pool was amazing. beds were comfy. definitely want to stay again.
