East Coast Australia Adventure Holidays

Room was decent and comfy. Pool here is very good and kids loved the slide. However the kids splash area which was one of reasons we came was closed. The fridge was quite loud when trying to sleep. Unfortunately couldnt get a later check out than 11. I feel like 44 dollars for a breakfast buffet is a bit steep. Overall I would recommend the stay

I love staying here. Great location and service and the hotel is full of old style charm.

The Lakes Cairns Resort is a multi-building property where each unit is owned by an individual and some owners agree to place their units in a rental pool which is managed by the overall resort management company. The resort was built beginning in 2000., and we have been staying there off an on for 26 years. The resort was much more vacation-units early on, and currently appears to be mostly long-term renters. The unit we stayed in this trip was unit #710 (Tinaroo building). The unit was in excellent condition and has been fully stocked. We did have one problem with a leaking sink, but the management team addressed right away. The complex is older now, and some of the general site maintenance has been neglected/overdue, and this is mostly noted in the nooks and corners of the property. (former Rambutan restaurant space closed and used for storage, the perimeter fence along the saltwater creek, the former library/gym, oddly, the door to the mechanical room for the lagoon pool are in need of attention. the BBQ's and pools are in good shape, and the decking around the lagoon pool has been re-done. The main pools and common areas are adequately maintained. It should be noted that given Cairns tropical weather, long term care and maintenance can be challenging. The Lakes location is spectacular, and surrounded by lakes, creeks and community parks and trails. Also easy walk to the Esplanade, and easy access to the highway, airport and local shopping/attractions.

The resort just has a beautiful feel to it; surrounded by lush garden, and on the lagoon. Despite being so big, it is very well configured to feel very private and quiet.

Lovely hotel, easy check in, friendly staff. Quiet hotel and a lovely big hotel room and bathroom. Would definitely book again! Offered to have our bags before check in but then our room was available a couple of hours early which was extremely helpful. Really convenient location - short walk to night markets, harbour, shops and restaurants. WiFi great. Coffee room brilliant - free coffee, tea, hot chocolate & water. Look forward to staying here again if I return to Cairns!
