Everything was perfect. We checked in after office hours and the paperwork and keys were left in a dropbox for us. Clear instructions were given. When we arrived, there was a welcome pack of essentials to make things easy. The apartment is superbly situated next to the wharves and a couple of minutes from the centre. It is really well equipped, lots of space, clean and comfortable. The staff at the agency were brilliant. Friendly and relaxed, gave great advice, an absolute pleasure to deal with. We thoroughly recommend staying here.

Even though we only stayed for one night, it was absolutely worth it. Every detail is so well thought out. There are bath salts in the bathroom, flip-flops, bathrobes, coffee, snacks, milk, cold water, so many lovely touches that make the stay feel truly perfect. The house is beautiful and very well equipped, it even has an oven, which isn’t always the case and everything is designed to make you feel comfortable. We had actually planned to go out and explore, but we ended up staying in because it just felt so cosy and relaxing! It was a short stay, but a special one and I’m sure we’ll be back if we return to the area. Highly, highly recommended!

    I enjoyed the lovely studio apartment and appreciated the extra special touches by the owner, the snack basket, extra towels and toilet roll, also washing powder for washing clothes and it goes on ! The location to me was perfect close to Cairns Central shopping centre and train station and a short 15 minutes to the esplanade! As a solo traveler I felt safe and secure in the apartment complex and Jackie the owner was very helpful

    Great location and views; spacious; large, well-equipped kitchen; laundry with clothes airer (and they even had pegs - a rarity!); comfortable beds; clean and modern. Pretty much everything you want or need in a holiday apartment. Way better than the chain hotels we have tried in the area.
