Arrived at the building and it's an abandoned building, there were workers there that said it hads been closed down for a long time. We tried calling them several times throughout the day - no answer. We have contacted lastminute and are in the process of getting this listing deleted."Reviewed May 30, 2026Return • Sydney (SYD) - Cairns (CNS)SYD - CNS • Direct CNS - SYD • Direct£408£328found 1 day agoper traveller - Vision Apartments

Secure basement parking was easy to access. Our apartment had two bathrooms, one was an ensuite. Daily towel change and bed making (although ours was missed a couple of times but not an issue). A great pool overlooking the esplanade, with pool towels supplied on request. Check in and out, and any request were super easy and helpful."Reviewed May 31, 2026Return • Sydney (SYD) - Cairns (CNS)SYD - CNS • Direct CNS - SYD • Direct - Rydges Esplanade Resort Cairns

Cairns North3 nights8.0/10 - Very good (1,002 reviews)"The property had a beautiful patio and pool. I didn’t use it because I was out checking the city. The staff was good I sometimes struggled to understand them because of thick accents but they did their best. I found the food on site very pricy for what they were offering."Reviewed May 24, 2026Return • Sydney (SYD) - Cairns (CNS)SYD - CNS • Direct CNS - SYD • Direct£533£431found 1 day agoper traveller - Waters Edge Apartment
