A great choice for a four night stay over. Getting a bit tired and in need of some maintenance but overall a good place to stay.

Ideal base just out of main CBD, flat picturesque walk to heart of Cairns and it's shops and markets. Very easy access to main highways heading north or south. Close to airport. Onsite management available and very personable. We arrived out of hours, clear instructions given to access unit. Kept informed of any maintainance (upgraded balcony lights). Clean pool, barbecue area, well maintained gardens and site.Everything you need for your stay and good welcome pack to get you started.

A bit disappointing
No-frills '80s style apartment, with minimal sign of updates since. Our "ocean view" apartment had a rather limited peep of the sea and the only natural light in the completely internal second bedroom, was from shutters between it and the kitchen. Adequate for a short stay, but it wouldn't be our first choice for a return trip.

We came for a few days away with the family and found the apartment very spacious and very clean. Was located north of the main shops and restaurants, was about a 25 minute walk to the main part of Cairns

Disappointing second visit.
We first stayed here six years ago and rated it quite highly. However, since that time the establishment has not been maintained well. At least three of the rooms were out of action for mould remediation works, and our room was also suffering from the effects of high humidity along the skirting boards, etc. The light switch in the bathroom was in a dangerous state and the towel rail was reattached to the door without worrying about repainting. Even the two sofas had lost all support in the cushions and looked like they hadn't been cleaned in years. Although the location is still great, this places has not aged gracefully and we won't be returning for a third visit.
