Cairns is a great place and this hotel is ideal place to base yourself. A bit out of town but close to the sea and the rainforest. Our room was self catering and was spotless and spacious. Pool was fantastic and covered with a canopy for those who want out of the sun or the all too frequent downpours that... more

We were looking forward a nice stay at this hotel, but that was not our experience. When we checked in after arriving late our first night, we found that none of the rooms are actually on the beach. In addition, the room we were given was not even facing the beach (eventhough we paid for a beach front room). When... more

Holloways Beach is lovely, but I strongly do not recommend to stay at this resort with children. The manager of the resort, Micheal was not child friendly at all. She called us about 9pm when we were watching the state of origin football match. Stateted that the noise level generated by two children, one 4 years old, the other 2... more

Another great stay at Holloyways. My 12th stay here over 12 years. The perfect base to go Nth or Sth. Clean tidy and self contained for eating in if you wish, its nice to have that option. Get a cheap reantal car and base here.Top spot. more

We were there for a friend's 50th Bday, and we had a great stay! The staff is very helpful, and the rooms are all 1-BR apartments, so plenty of space, full kitchen, grocery and liquor stores within less than 5-minutes walk. You do have a bit of an ant problem, but that's more about being in the tropics than any... more

Had a week here and enjoyed thoroughly. When booking you are never sure what you will get but we were pleasantly surprised. The location is great, we don't really like to be surrounded by buildings, easy to access the area in both directions. You do need transport as we never saw a local bus. A bit of a sleepy place... more

We returned to this resort because we really liked it when we visited a few years ago. Pleased to say it was as we remembered, although the room had been refurbished since our previous visit. The unit was clean and tidy and met all our requirements. Loved relaxing each evening on the deck overlooking the pool and the lovely tropical... more

I stayed at the resort for two weeks and it was fantastic. The units had everything you need so that you dont have to dine out all the time and can just relax in your room. The pool was lovely. It is about 10 minutes from Cairns centre but a local bus is cheap and runs frequently. It is actually... more
