Top Cassowary Forest Nature Refuge Hotel Reviews

Coral Sands Resort

8/10 Good

"Location was amazing, view of beach, pool, close to cafes, restaurants. Room satisfactory, no screens on sliding doors, staff fantastic. No supermarket in town. Local shop very expensive."

Trinity Collective

8/10 Good

"I’ve stayed here twice now. The first time was magic! The second I questioned their attention to detail. This last stay there was no milk provided in the fridge, I had a live cockroach fly out of aircon while it was turned on over the bed and other pests such as spiders were present in the room. I provided this feedback back to reception, I really hope they improve."

Trinity Beach Club Holiday Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was amazing very helpful,clean room great location plenty of things to do close by. The only downfall was our dryer in the room did not work, but there was a clothes rack that we were able to hang our clothes on to dry."

On the Beach Holiday Apartments

8/10 Good

"Clean room with an ocean view and outdoor pool. Close to cafes and restaurants. Comfortable bed. We had a lovely stay for 3 nights."

Agincourt Beachfront Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"Having stayed there many times, its in a great location, away from the tourists in Palm Cove, but easy to get to for great restaurants in Palm Cove"

Sea Change Beachfront Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely enjoyed our stay. Our apartment was huge and had everything we needed for the week. We thoroughly enjoyed the pool and being close to the pool. We would definitely stay here again. I have one comment. Not related to the accommodation but more for Expedia. They listed our room but didn’t specify that you need to recommend a type of room you want even though when we booked it was pictures on a higher floor with ocean views but we put on ground level next to the pool area. Again, not a fault of the seachange but Expedia. They need to correct this for future."

Tasman Holiday Parks-Cairns Cool Waters

8/10 Good

"We stayed in one of the cabins. Everything we needed. Handy having the laundry to catch up on washing while travelling. Pool was nice."

Blue Lagoon Resort

10/10 Excellent

Marlin Cove Resort

8/10 Good
