We stayed with the lovely couple in Cairns and can heavily recommend booking your stay with them. You have your own apartment with a cute kitchen with most of the essentials (and then some). Cozy feeling of summer cabin from back home. The house is a short walk / drive away from the center of town. Peaceful and cute place to stay, gentle and cute dog next door and very friendly couple to share travel tips and a bit of chat. Would visit again and so should you!

We found everything we needed in this apartment. We met the owner and found him and his wife to be very nice and helpful. We raised concerns with Booking.com about how Booking.com failed us on another booking in Cairns but that was not for this property. We very much enjoyed our stay in this property.

The location was good, able to walk around to all the major Casino's and sights. Comfortable bed, nice room and balcony. We used the gym a couple times as well as the pool, both very good. Marie the host was very good at communicating, gave me comfort that if something did go wrong or I had any questions, she would be quick to answer.

I enjoyed the lovely studio apartment and appreciated the extra special touches by the owner, the snack basket, extra towels and toilet roll, also washing powder for washing clothes and it goes on ! The location to me was perfect close to Cairns Central shopping centre and train station and a short 15 minutes to the esplanade! As a solo traveler I felt safe and secure in the apartment complex and Jackie the owner was very helpful

Great location and views; spacious; large, well-equipped kitchen; laundry with clothes airer (and they even had pegs - a rarity!); comfortable beds; clean and modern. Pretty much everything you want or need in a holiday apartment. Way better than the chain hotels we have tried in the area.
