Forest Creek Holidays from AU$582

We booked a 2 bedroom standard apartment for 9 nights with a family of 4. We were extremely impressed by the tidiness and size of the pool, grounds and location. The standard 2 bedroom apartment serviced our needs and requirements during our stay and it was much larger than we expected which was pleasing. We loved that the apartment had cooking facilities, a large fridge, dishwasher, a washing machine and dryer, plus 2 bathrooms with 3 girls is a big bonus. The balcony had a great view of the pool and beach. The pool looks awesome at night with the blue light lit up and even encouraged me for a swim before it closed. The standard appartments are quite dated in the bathrooms mainly and could use some attention such a fresh coat of paint where paint is cracking and broken fixtures replaced or removed, however saying this we did expect this reading previous reviews and it wasn’t a big deal for us or we would have booked a superior apartment which are renovated. When we first arrived the kids had fun looking at the tourist board provided by Coral Sands Beach Resort and taking pamphlets of trips they wished to go on and sites to see and I was happy that the facility included car parking for our rental car with easy access from the car park to our apartment. On our last night we had dinner at the onsite Italian restaurant which was delicious. Trinity Beach is a wonderful and pretty location and we were just so happy that we chose Coral Sands Beach Resort for our accommodation.

Best place ever will be back again

We enjoyed our short stay making use of the pool and spa . Plenty of parking and close enough to walk to centre of town as well . Nice room with plenty of room for a family.

Staff very friendly and good service

We spent 4 nights at the Lakes resort Cairns. The resort overall is beautiful and the 4 pools are very nicely done. It is also conveniently located between the airport and the main Cairns city. In terms of the apartment, the size is quite appropriate and the amenities are all in place and good working condition. However, we did notice a lack of cleanliness with cob webs handing from the ceilings. The security case had a manual key which we had to collect from reception the next day. And the key didnt work. We would expect to see an electronic case in most such places now. The reception timings are quite difficult 8am to 5.30pm (but probably this is the case for all resorts in Cairns). For those on a holiday, by the time your activity finishes, there is no one at the reception to help out. They do have a 24 hr call center but its hardly of any help. For eg, someone parked his car at my allocated space and I complained to the call center but not much luck. Also the reception is closed over the weekend which is quite a hassle if you are checking in anytime between Friday evening to Sunday evening. Overall we had a good time, but we do believe certain advancements in the apartments and overall processes would definitely go a long way in realising the full potential of this beautiful property.
