I had the best stay at Abbott Hotel! Lovely and clean rooms in an absolutely perfect location. Super quick walk to everything - restaurants, bars, docks for boat trips, Daintree pick ups, etc. The highlight though was the staff, they were so incredibly kind and friendly. Special shout out to the manager, Peter, for making my time there so memorable. We would chat every time I passed the desk, and it made for such a lovely environment while I was solo traveling. I’m so grateful I chose to stay here and cannot recommend them enough! :)

I am a solo female traveler and I highly recommend a stay here. This hotel is a dream. the room was comfortable, the mini bar was on point, the upgraded features in the room to dim the lights to welcome vs. relax. The surrounding area is great- very short walk to the marina, restaurants, and lagoon. it is so peaceful here. tons of restaurants nearby -busy area but room was quiet and clean. The staff also helped me book a taxi at 4am to get to the airport. 10/10 service, 10/10 cleanliness. 10/10 for safety- you have to tap into every elevator and to get to the different towers- always a bonus to feel secure.

We liked everything about this hotel! The room was spacious, equipped well, had a nice swimming pool and a wonderful view over the Coral Sea. Although the hotel is showing signs of its age, overall it was excellent. The staff were helpful and cooperative albeit the service in the dining room in the evening was a little slow and over stretched.

This resort is a gorgeous Mediterranean style resort. Facilities are good, landscaping and pools are beautiful. We stayed in two different units as we travelled in between. The units were different but both lovely - our favourite one was ground level with direct access to the pool but the 1st floor unit had a good view.

Cairns itself has so much to offer! Stay at the Harbourside hotel for exceptional service, Bel, Rita and the blonde gentleman on at night were outstanding. Breakfast , cleanliness and comfort + views from balcony in room sensational. This pkace is 5 star in every sense on a 3 star budget price. Train and cable ride a must, ensure you pre book. Fishing charter with Cairns reef fishing Oz , a must do! Katch up restaurant a hidden gem with bloody good food and cocktails . Best op shop was the animal welfare and Maggies. Casino great vibe Pubs- The Cock and Bull, Pier Hotel and Crown for steak. Italian restaurant food and service is Villa Romana.

The beautiful breeze was lovely whenever I sat on a comfortable seat on the grass near the beach... We thought the views were amazing in every way we turned on the walkway across the road from the Agincourt Beachfont...We will be returning. It will most likely be in the winter though, as humidity is very high in the summer for us, as a couple from the central coast, in N.S.W. Thank you! It is close enough for a drive to Cairns, Port Douglas and other beautiful spots.

A good alternative to the much trendier and therefore pricier northern beaches of Trinity Beach and Palm Cove. And definitely much quieter! A comprehensive shopping strip on the main street and of course not far from the large shopping complex at Smithfield. A few restaurant options available, including the yacht club. There is a bus service into Cairns CBD, but I would recommend hiring a vehicle for your stay. Taxis are very expensive.

Beautiful, quiet and relaxing (wasn’t crowded at all when we were there in June). Seems to be off the beaten path for tourists—seemed to be more locals there, so probably not typically as crowded as some of the more well known beaches. We probably wouldn’t have known about it if we weren’t staying at a house on the beach. Neighborhood is quiet and beautiful, although not a ton of beach parking for visitors. Beautiful walking path, small playground, picnic tables, incredible sunrises, sand is soft and silky, water is warm to wade in, however, swimming is not recommended due to possible crocodiles.
