Great apartment with everything you needed. Staff were extremely helpful and rooms serviced daily with fresh towels and full clean part way through stay as we were there for 9 nights. Had an apartment at back away from road noise. Was apparently fully booked whole time we were there but rarely saw many other guests around and nice and quiet. Close to airport so in flight path but not an issue as flights did not go overnight that we noticed. Actually plane watching was quite entertaining from the balcony.

It is a bit old and retro, but very clean and spacious. The staff were very friendly. I had an overnight in Port Douglas and they not only looked after my luggage while I was away, they delivered it to my room so it was waiting to me when I returned.

The place was quiet, well-kept and suited our liking, worth the money. Haven't tried using the pool but it looked clean and well maintained. My family and I usually stay there when in Cairns, we will continue to.

For our family, location great.

For our family, location great. Short trip from airport, quick lunch at Red Barron Hotel, changed for trip to venue at Redlynch. We were only there for a few hours but found it to be a 2 star rating. I would not book this again.

Beautiful sunrises and sunsets. Private and peaceful. A couple of good cafes/restaurants and a general store. 10min to the nearest supermarket and to the airport. 15 minutes to Cairns City. Great base to travel up to the northern beaches

Not recommended at all. Not as it claims. Not a holiday house. It is A holiday apartment in a Queenslander with owners living on the premises with two territorial jack Russells. No parking. Not an easy address to find for a traveller. Take your own milk for coffee.

The North Cairns area can be noisy because of its location near the airport. Road noise is also a concern during the day because the apartment is on the1st floor and no sound barriers between its balcony and the road nearby. Overall, though, the noise level greatly reduces in the evening and did not affect our sleeping at night.

The weather in Cairns was hot and humid, but the region’s beaches and rainforest were beautiful. We enjoyed the Kuranda Scenic Railway despite the heat in the carriage. The Skyrail was a highlight, offering stunning views and unique things to explore at each stop.

If you have a hire car, Westcourt is a good place to stay.

If you have a hire car, Westcourt is a good place to stay. Away from the mad tourist traffic and late-night city noises. Just a two-minute drive to the Esplanade, Cairns Station, major shopping centre and the city centre.

Situated close to the airport made travelling easy. Property is gated so felt safe and secure. Having a local personal contact helped with knowledge fior eating out and shopping. Situated is so convenient for visitors to Cairns and so many locally based things for visitors to Queensland.

We had a great time in Cairnes. 3 days was just right. The Great Barrier Reef is, of course, a must. We went with our teenage daughters to the Kuranda rain forest and the aboriginal village there and had a great time.

We loved being so close to the beautiful Botanical gardens in Edge Hill and enjoyed having afternoon tea in the cafe surrounded by tropical trees and plants. We also enjoyed going for early morning walks in the extensive gardens and parks. We didn't need to go into Cairns city to eat - we enjoyed eating food from the Indian restaurant and the take-away Thai in Edge Hill. There were other, often busy, restaurants to choose from but we mostly preferred to eat and relax at home after a busy day. We felt safe walking along the well lit Main Street at night to eat/order our food.
