Your Coral Coast Resort Inn
We really enjoyed our short stay at Ekaterina's place! The accommodation was fully furnished with everything we needed and was decorated nicely! The 2 bedroom layout was very nice allowing 3 people to get up at time of their choosing and not disturb the other 2. We would definitely stay here again and would highly recommend this host!

Palm Springs Bungalow
This is a great place to stay. We enjoyed our walks down at the beach. There are also numerous places to eat there and the majority are dog friendly which was good for us. The house is well appointed with a large yard. A family could easily stay here. Overall the house is great and the area is superb

Clifton Beach House, Pool, BBQ short walk to beach
Love the lay back feel of Clifton Beach and the house felt homely and was full of character. Beds were comfortable and it had everything you needed. Would book it again

Trinity Beach Oasis
The Oasis was just that for us. We were in Cairns for Crankworx, it was perfectly positioned for access to the motorway and private so no one outside could see the bikes etc. The restaurants a short walk away on the beach front were great, would highly reccommend L'unico. Thanks Kate, see you next year if Angus doesn't break himself in Europe 😊

Palm Cove Hideaway
Hannah’s place was exactly what we needed. It was close to everything we wanted and was very quiet. Hannah was an excellent host and we would recommend her place to anyone. Peaceful, very close to the beach, excellent restaurants nearby. We were very happy staying there. Cheers Amanda

Seaside Serenity: Modern Cottage with Spa
We had a great time here at Char’s place! The place is conveniently located close to local attractions with a short taxi ride and was clean. Well equipped as well and hosts were proactive in delivering a great experience! Highly recommend :)

Private Pool - Beach Townhouse
The house was peaceful and beautiful, perfect for a relaxing stay. The host was always kind and available whenever we needed anything. Highly recommended

Beach House on Cinderella - absolute beachfront
We were very happy with the location and privacy of the house. It was very well equipped with everything we needed. Great view and loved going to sleep with the sound of the ocean and the birds. Close to the airport and Cairns. Thank you for the opportunity to stay at your place . I would definitely recommend your beach house to my friends and family.

One Bedroom Oceanview Apartment Clifton Beach
Nice and comfortable.

Beachside Apartment With Pool And Garden View!
Beautiful apartment in a lovely quiet area right near the beach. lovely and clean and we had everything we needed.

Trinity Beach Tropical Hideaway
A sprawling home with great views. Kitchen was fabulous. The bedrooms and bathrooms were top notch. The patio area had comfortable seating. Even though the place is a part of a small group of apartments, it felt totally private. Covered car park was a bonus. Hosts are super responsive and helpful. One reaches the place through two flights of narrow stairs. It may be difficult to carry large luggage or if you have mobility issues. Otherwise this is a dream vacation home

Treetop 1 Bed, Reef Retreat Apartments Palm Cove
This place was so great that we extended our stay. Close to the beach and calm, has all the amenities one need! Fabian was super helpful and flexible with the check in time. Would book it again.

Beach Escape - Spacious 2 Bedroom
Beautiful setting, quiet and magnificent views to the water. Home away from home and highly recommended. The swimming pool is a huge bonus and well as across the road to swim at the beach. Really enjoyed our stay.

Stunning 2-3 Bed Penthouse Gorgeous Ocean Views
Beautiful location and easy checkin. This place is also even bigger than you would expect. Beautiful view and easy access to beach. Of note there are 4 flights of start from parking to unit, not a problem for me but may be for some

Beachfront Villa with Direct Pool Access 1 Bedroom
Our second stay in this great apartment, in a great location. Cant wait to visit again. Would recommend to anyone wanting to visit the Cairns district.

Villa O’Shea
Thanks for having us at your place. It was a nice house with a lovely pool and beautiful backyard, even better is the view from the front deck at sun rise. The only thing I’d say is given the location a BBQ would be a great addition, we would have really appreciated this but got by without it. O’Sheas down the road is a good pub for food and a couple of beers, and the cafe is good too.

Sea View Trinity Beach Dome
Beautiful spot and wonderful host!

TIDE NINE YOUR ABSOLUTE BEACHFRONT APARTMENT
A home away from home. An amazing place to stay. Judi and David made us feel truly at home and nothing was too much to ask. By the end of your stay they are friends rather than air bnb hosts. Everything you could ever need was in there. We would definitely visit here again.

Beach Dome No.3/Beach Front/Free Wifi King Bed
I loved our days in Georgia’s place. We felt like in home! Would book it again!

Palm Cove Oceanfront Resort Two-Bedroom Apartment
Amazing stay in Palm Cove! The beach is right outside the font door. The kitchen is very well equipped. Complete with salt & pepper along with lots of utensils and containers. There are plenty of towels, tea towels etc. The toiletries provided were pretty nice too (Shampoo, conditioner, soap, body wash, body lotion and bath salts) There were enough blankets etc. The property is immaculately maintained, pool and outdoor areas are pristine Highly recommend to anyone One note though (re: the area) - do your shopping before you get to the suburb of Palm Cove. There are two very small & expensive supermarkets. Stop at Coles on the way over. We really enjoyed our stay, thanks again!

Triton's Retreat Palm Cove
Great location, beautiful space, super responsive host. Will be back!

Beachfront Cairns Apartment
Our stay at Carla’s place was perfect for our short visit to the Cairns northern beaches area. The view from the apartment was breathtaking. Everything was comfortable and convenient. Carla was a friendly and helpful host.

Trinity Beach Getaway
This was such a wonderful stay! We really enjoyed the apartment and the location :) Would highly recommend

Sea view Beachside Apartment Palm Cove
Beautiful apartment in a great location. Well equipped, clean, and as described. Very large pool. One point to note is that the layout of the apartment means the second bedroom does not provide much privacy. This is apparently true of all apartments in the block.
