We visited Australia and this apartment-hotel twice within a year. A fantastic location in a quiet area about 5 miles from Cairns itself. All the facilities were excellent, pool, the grounds, parking, the apartment, on both occasions, and the staff polite and helpful. You will need a car as it's away from everything, other than a cafe over the road... More

Notice to all travelers. The Cairns Beach Resort has alot of problems. Firstly, it is NOT in Cairns. It is located in an outer suburb called Holloway's Beach. This is about 15 or so minutes from the CBD of Cairns, which is not a problem unless you dont have a car. If you dont have a car the only option... More

This mst be the WORST Hotel in Cairns. Firstly, Cairns Beach Resort is NOT in Cairns. It actually in Holloways Beach, so if you think your going to be in Central Cairns, think again. I booked for myself and wife, and upon arrival at 7:00pm, reception was closed. After finally getting room keys, we were given a room with 2... More

I stayed here for a week and LOVED it. It's not the Ritz-Carlton so don't expect a lot of plush amenities. But, it's very quiet, attractive, very clean, the grounds are quite beautiful, and it's a block to an almost deserted beach. The staff is friendly and wonderful. The lady at the front desk (the weather is so beautiful her... More

Arrived in Australia for three week trip. First stop Cairns and Great Barrier Reef. Had booked room at Cairns Beach Resort thru internet before leaving. What a pleasant surprise. Everything was as promised. The hotel is a booking agent for all local tours to the reef and up and down the coast. Andrea and Brad could not have been more... More

The apartment itself was quite basic but comfortable. There was air conditioning but only in the bedroom which was needed to sleep properly. The washing machine and tumble drier in the apartment was great. The TV wasn't brilliant, ie. not many channels. We did have a few ants in the kitchen but they seem to be everywhere in Australia and... More

Unit showed a bit of wear but I daresay most holiday accom will. Great having own laundry facilities. Had a 3rd floor (top) unit and sitting on balcony in the morning having breakfast was... More

During our tour of Australia we stayed at the Cairns Beach Resort for 5 days. It is on a bus route to Cairns and stops in the middle of the city about a 20 minute ride. We had a one bedroom apartment with a washer and dryer which definitely came in handy. The apartment was clean and spacious and well... More

We enjoyed our stay at Cairns Beach Resort the staff were very friendly and efficient. It was nice to be just out of Cairns as it does not have a real beach only a man made one as it is a harbour. Easy bus transportation to the Cairns and back. Great restaurant nearby and convenience store nearby to by all... More
