### Shangri-La The Marina, Cairns

10/10 Excellent

"We really liked the Shangri-La. Loved the spacious lobby and the room. The view of the Marina and the water as well as the mountains was spectacular. It is very close to the reef excursion pier making it easy to get on your ferry to Green Island or the Outer Reef. The Staff, especially Nao knocked them selves out to assist us. If we return to Cairns we would book this hotel in a flash."
