Cairns Beach Resort

Overnight stop We were only there for a quick place to crash before transferring to another hotel near our final destination so we probablyvreally only spent about 12 hours there in total but it was very nice and comfortable with everything you would need for a small family or two couples. Had a beautiful large spanning balcony with seating and a a table as well with views down to the nearby beach. The pool area was welcoming and the gardens throughout were gorgeous! Not much tobdo around within walking distance other than a liquor store and Code which was avery delicious restaurant and bar about 2 blocks away. The guidebook for guests was a little alarming as they stated many things about havong a safe travel making it appear that the area wasnt safe at night. However we walked around and didnt understand the reasoning behing it. Overall it was perfect and i wish we had more time to spend there.

Nice place. Beautiful gardens Was nice. Gardens are beautiful. 8 day stay and their housekeeping says you get mid week housekeeping if stay longer than 7 days. There was no housekeeping. Same towels for 8 days. Washing machine but you had to buy your own powder. Make sure you have your own body wash and shampoo as you only get enough for 2 days. Toilet paper also limited. No mop only mop bucket. Very out of date tiny tv. Worst of all, the wifi is rubbish. It was like going back in time. Continual disconnections. Had to use my phone as a hot spot most of the time for streaming. Not up to 2023 standard at all.

Loved it....beautiful little town.

While property was close to waterfront, there was not really much to see or do at Holloways Beach, compared to more northern beaches. Central to many ‘sights’ if i you have you our own car.

We have been staying at this resort for a number of years and seen 3 turnovers of management in those years but this time was our best time ever. The gardens look better than ever. For us there is no better place around Cairns than this. OK, the internet connection in the units is not up to scratch but you just go to reception, there is a bench outside where the connection is just fine, or anywhere around the fabulous pool as well. The current managers are the best ever. Josh and Ruby will do antyhing to make you welcome and to make your stay a very pleasant one. Ruby is obviously very experienced in the hospitality industry and Josh, always friendly and helpful, is an incredibly hard worker. I have been an employer before I retired, but if I had had employees like Josh and Ruby, I would makr sure they would never have a good reason to leave or change employment. The gardens look better than ever, the maintenance programme is second to none. On the day we left all the gutters, rusty and overflowing, were being replaced. I hope my review is not a trigger to increase their unit prices, but we will definitely come back at least once a year and we hope that these two managers will be there to welcome us for many years to come. ?Ruby and Josh, you are real gems and the perfect example of managers who love their work, who are totally committed serving their guests.

"We traveled to Cairns to visit the outer Great Barrier Reef and explore its surroundings. We rented a one-bedroom accommodation, which felt like an apartment complex. It had a nice pool and included a washer and dryer. While the place was minimal, the air conditioning worked great and met our needs. The only drawback was that it wasn't close to the city of Cairns."
