Summary:

Just a five-minute drive from the Esplanade and city centre, the home is designed for relaxed group getaways combining generous indoor-outdoor spaces with everything needed for a memorable stay. Gather in the large open-plan living area, enjoy a sparkling outdoor pool with a lounge, and make the most of the fully equipped kitchen, from quick breakfasts to shared dinners. A fenced backyard provides plenty of room to enjoy the outdoors, while air conditioning throughout ensures year-round comfort.

Bright, spacious, and thoughtfully arranged for comfort, this welcoming home offers plenty of room to relax, reconnect, and enjoy everything Cairns has to offer.

Four comfortable bedrooms provide flexible sleeping arrangements, including two king beds, one double bed, and two single beds, making it easy to accommodate a variety of group configurations.

Great house

The house itself was good. Check in was easy! Communication was always great. The neighbourhood was pretty noisy at night and dogs barking all night. Overall we were happy with our stay and enjoyed the pool!

Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
The host wasn’t very helpful.Pool and surrounds were littered with old dead leaves and the pool was very murky with lots of leave on the bottom.House was fine.I seriously would not recommend this house also because of its position. Woken at 3am to neighbours sing on the top of their lungs and playing music.Other neighbours yelled out trying to stop it. That went on for 2 solid hours then another fight broke out with a man being bashed with a log. Really not a nice area.1 window could not be locked, my door from the main bedroom was ajar, thank goodness I checked it.Bathroom vent not working. Microwave terrible. Leaks from the pool chlorinator and air conditioning. That has been happening for so long mould was growing. No dryer. There should be a lock for the carport. Was given wrong entry instructions. I was given a number code to enter front gate , that was impossible because it was just a card entry gadget. I just hope the owner sees this response and changes his management team.
