Great place to stay

We stay here twice a year in a suite and love the location, It is opposite the Esplanade and very close to restaurants and a supermarket. The only drawback is lack of storage in the kitchenette. Parking is readily available and the pool area is very nice

Our room is very clean and very comfortable, serviced everyday. We get fresh towels everyday, beds are done everyday, we were very thankful. Very close to everything. Public transpo is very easy $1 return trip everywhere we go, no need for car. Lots of restaurants near the hotel. Walk along the esplanade is the best thing everyday, hotel is overlooking the esplanade, only few steps away. Our stay was very convenient. Price is very good for the location. Peter(owner) and all the staff were very nice and very helpful. Place is well maintained. Close to all the attractions. Definitely will book again. Very convenient to everything we needed. Thank you.

Stayed in a 1 bedroom suite - great value. Reception staff friendly and efficient. Very comfortable sofa and bed. Lovely view over the Esplanade from balcony. Easy walking distance to hospitals, Cairns Central, Waterfront, cafes and restaurants. You can also use the pool and bathroom facilities after checking out - very handy if on a late flight.

There is a lip and step onto the balcony, especially coming back inside where you step over the lip and then odwn as the room is lower than the balcony. Would be concerned about an older person. We put a chair there to remind us to be careful. View from room was great. Location to food and lagoon also excellent. Didn't use facilities as we were only there overnight.
