Novotel Cairns Oasis Resort

10/10 Excellent
"Lovely big pool with good drinks & food, especially lunch. Activities for kids in the afternoon were really nice. Breakfast had good choices. Limited sunchairs around the pool, but I did like the beanbags. Great location just a short walk from restaurant and shops. Gym is very small and one of the machines did not work properly. Lovely stay overall. "
