5 of 5 stars Reviewed June 6, 2013

We recently stayed in Getaway and again had a really great Cairns experience. We would recommend Getaway with confidence for a great example of true value Cairns apartment rental. It's plain to see why people would often review this property in terms of "can't wait to go back there again". The property is exactly as described (not always with others).... More

We spent 3 days in Cairns, and rented a 2 bedroom/2 bath at Getaway On Grafton. The unit was clean and spacious and met our needs quite well. During the days, we were touring and during the evenings we dined out. So basically, we used the unit for sleeping and showering. We especially appreciated the washer/dryer since we were on... More

This was a great trip and a great place. The room was large and comfortable. Kevin was very helpful, helped us plan our trip and gave great advice based on local knowledge. He also suggested the most appropriate tours for our needs. He was happy to help us in all our questions. Would love to re-visit.

The physical setting is very nice – just as pictured. We required a two-bedroom, two-bath apartment. There was plenty of room for the 5 of us. The kitchen was sufficient for some broiling for dinner and for breakfasts, etc. The location was OK but manageable – a little bit far from the lagoon area and markets. Kevin et al. were... More

Thanks for your feedback, glad to hear you enjoyed Cairns. Far North Queensland is known for fresh air and tropical climate, Markets and lagoon are around a 10 min walk from here and we have never hidden that fact. Cairns weather and wide flat walking streets make it easy and pleasurable. Cairns offer a unique tuk tuk pushbike ride and... More

We had intended to use our camping trailer but due to the heavy rains previous we decided to stay in apartment for few days. Kevin and Lynda were excellent host with lots of local knowledge. The rooms were exceptionally clean and modern. The pool and BBQ area was great also.

We had a great stay at the Getaway. Close walking distance to the Esplanade. Clean and spacious accomodations (we rented a 2 bedroom). The office staff was very friendly and helpful in answering all of our questions. We would definately stay at the Getaway again.

We arrived in Cairns on January 20, but were unable to stay at the Getaway our first night, as the office had already closed for the day. The next morning, we went to the office and Kevin showed us an available suite -- even though it was only 8:30 am, he said we could check in already! Three of us... More
