Wonderful place but......
During our flight to Cairns from the USA a person on the flight had a medical emergency resulting in our flight making an emergency landing. This caused many passengers to miss connecting flights, including us. I emailed On the Beach Holiday Apartments that we would be delayed yet when we arrived there (after having little sleep for nearly 2 days) no one was there to let us into our rooms and we had to, at midnight, find somewhere else to sleep. The next day they were very apologetic and paid for our hotel in Cairns for the night we should have stayed there. Moral....... Many condos have no staff after 6pm so beware if you are arriving late. Other than that we loved staying there and would stay there again. It was outside of Cairns but the bus to Cairns was 2 blocks away. There were several quality restaurants within walking distance of the condo. The beach is small but beautiful. Waking every morning to noisy parrots and cockatoos was delightful! When you get tired of the beach there are many things to do nearby. Great central location.
We went to this part of Australia because we wanted to explore and enjoy Australia’s natural wonders. Various members of our group went diving and snorkeling on the Great Barrier Reef, skydiving, white water rafting, hiking in the rainforest, off-road exploring with 4 wheeler. We saw kangaroos and wallabies in parks everywhere, wildly beautiful cockatoos and lorikeets woke us up every morning. While hiking on a lake trail we saw a playpus swimming. A donwside is that everything is very expensive. This trip was a special occasion for us (my son’s 30th birthday) but otherwise might be too expensive for say a week long jaunt, especially because it takes so long to get there

Fabulous holiday apartment
not plush or luxurious but really family nice 2 bedroom aptment with enough for me to cook great seafood dinners for us. Beach across a service street is hop, skip n jump away but we also have a pool inside gate for the kids to wear themselves out in. Melissa was really helpful with tours and is a lovely person, so helpful and warm and welcoming. We loved this place!
Traveller's tip on dining
L’unico’s gets alot of praise - we found it to be expensive and overrated. BBQ sauce destroyed fresh oysters on the shell, overgarlicked pasta n just stingy with the bread. Loved the toffee date pudding. Women i guess are supposed to be girrrrls - get drunk and cackle. Men seem to be addressed first like they decide the tips.

On the Beach Holiday Apartments is a great choice!
We were very satisfied with our stay here. The area was good with several restaurants within walking distance. It’s almost on the beach, literally - all rooms have a good view but the 3rd floor is best. All areas were clean and tidy, pool was nice. Our only negative surprise was Spa’s in Australia are cold!!! The staff was also very friendly. They have a nice tour booking service but they do push companies they get a kick back from. That said, they will book anything you ask. Not a downside, just be aware Enjoy your stay!!
