Review
The accommodation/building was older but nice and clean. Besides the ants in the kitchen coming out of the stove top. The beds were comfy and the bathrooms were clean. The view from the balcony was beautiful, you could sit out there all day!

Tired apartment
There is no reception, nowhere to leave luggage, and the communication is poor. I got a text message saying to text if I need anything and when I sent a text they never replied. The apartment is old. There were broken drawer handles, the sink drained very slowly and the toilet flush button got stuck regularly. On the plus side the view was amazing

We were very impressed with our apartment for our 3 night stay. The view was a highlight. The unit was clean, tidy and well presented. Everything needed was supplied, including extra towels and plenty of dish washing tablets.

This place has the most amazing views on three sides - you can watch the sun rise over the ocean and the sun set over the mountains. Place is older but extremely clean and has everything you need.
Nice and best accommodation and close to all attractions :)

The beautiful vista, sunrise and sunset, the nearby Boardwalk, city lights, views and proximity to everything as well as the RSL that have great food at reasonable prices, next door. Beds were lovely and comfortable and quiet, once the doors to the patio were closed. It was a perfect accommodation for us.

I enjoyed my stay in Cairns as an opportunity to have some lovely summer weather before the wet season begins. Great location and great view over the Esplanade and the bay.
