Crystalbrook Bailey

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean, great location and great bed"

Crystalbrook Riley

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely lovely property, with attentive staff. Booked a family interconnecting seaview room. Plenty of space with a great balcony in each room. Our family enjoyed the daily buffet breakfast with the view over the water, the gym, lap pool and easy access to local restaurants. We would definitely return to stay. Highly recommend."

Cairns Harbourside Hotel

8/10 Good

"Great location. Only 15min walk from the city. Perfect for solo travellers who prefer to be away from the hustle and busyness of family/ common areas. Stunning view from balcony and nice walkways along the esplanade. Room was clean, bed was comfy and the pillows were the best I've had in any accom anywhere I've travelled. My room had a door into the next room & this meant it was noisy when kids were staying next door. The food was a bit on the pricey side for what it was. But overall I enjoyed my stay, the staff were friendly & helpful and I would recommend this to family and friends"

Pullman Cairns International

8/10 Good

"We stayed for one night and it was a nice sized room with a small balcony. My husband pointed out that the TV was rather small and there were stains on the sheets and the furniture upholstery. We didn’t use any of the amenities, but we could see the pool from our hall and it looked very refreshing. The best part of the hotel is that it was walking distance to the Great Barrier Reef tours. Overall, I would stay there again, but it was just average and I would look for another place near that location before rebooking this hotel at the price we paid."

Cairns Colonial Club Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room and nice bathroom. The resort itself is beautiful and has a lot of covered walking paths to get from the lobby to the rooms, pools, and restaurants, helpful when it rains on and off a lot in Cairns. Breakfast buffet was really good, wish it was built into the price though. Staff were very welcoming and helpful, particularly one night with very noisy neighbours at 2:30am. Security came by right away to tell them off. Loved our experience here at the resort. Only downside is the location, a bit far from the main part of Cairns so we Ubered a lot but the price of the accommodation definitely made up for money spent Ubering"

Fitzroy Island Resort

10/10 Excellent

"This is the second year in a row my wife and I have been to Fitzroy Island for a winter getaway. We loved it last year and again this. The island is very relaxed, great snorkelling, Foxy’s bar great for food and drinks and the staff are ever so friendly. Well done Fitzroy we’ll see you again next year!!"
