its been a few years since i stayed in the Cairns beach resort but i felt i should leave a review after having such a good experience there. Holloways beach is about a 15 minute drive from Cairns and if you are looking for a relaxing break 1 minute from a picture perfect beach this place is spot on. We... more

The Cairns Beach Resort was our final accomodation in Queensland after several weeks of traveling around the state. It certainly wasn't the nicest place we stayed but we found it to be more than adequate. The unit was on the third floor, all stairs and no lift. This was not a problem for us as we are healthy and after... more

The Cairns Beach Resort provided everything we needed from a hotel. The staff was pleasant and friendly and the resort was immaculately clean. The apartment had a nice small kitchen area for basic cooking needs along with a nice living space and a bedroom. The pool was very beautiful although it was a bit cold to swim. The beach across... more

My girlfriend and I recently stayed there for 6 weeks over May and June this year. On the whole the stay was excellent, with only a few minor quibbles. The location is lovely, 10 seconds from the beach. It is a 15 minute drive from Cairns itself but we knew that already and wasn't an issue for us. The bus... more

The hotel itself was not bad...decently clean and big beds. They did not provide any sort of warm blankets and some nights, it got cold and the very thin "sheets" as I would call them were definitely not enough. Besides that, the water by the beach was awful due to the rainy/windy season as they had said. There was no... more

Our stay at this resort was very disappointing from day one. What with sand in the lounge chairs and cobwebs under the mirror on the lounge room wall,dried milk spill in the bottom of the fridge, crumbs in the cutlery drawer, floor needing a sweep, faeces in the toilet, television blowing up, someone elses underwear in the dryer and finally... more

We (a couple) spent 3 weeks here and we loved it. It's right next to the beach and there's a bar, a restaurant and a couple of food shops close. There's also a pizza restaurant and a bottle shop. It's at Holloway's Beach, not the centre of Cairns, but there's a regular bus service including night buses. The bus drivers... more

Yes i agree with some of the reviews. It could have been a little cleaner. The floor really needed a wash. but as for location. it was fantasic. next to a beach, restaurant over the road. nice and quiet which is great when you have kids in toe. You dont really need a car: because most tours pick you up... more

We visited Australia and this apartment-hotel twice within a year. A fantastic location in a quiet area about 5 miles from Cairns itself. All the facilities were excellent, pool, the grounds, parking, the apartment, on both occasions, and the staff polite and helpful. You will need a car as it's away from everything, other than a cafe over the road... more

Notice to all travelers. The Cairns Beach Resort has alot of problems. Firstly, it is NOT in Cairns. It is located in an outer suburb called Holloway's Beach. This is about 15 or so minutes from the CBD of Cairns, which is not a problem unless you dont have a car. If you dont have a car the only option... more

Cairns Beach Resort is 10 minutes from the Cairns CBD if travelling by car. A public Bus departs 50m from the resort on an hourly basis 7 days a week until late at night Our Beaches in Far North Qld are protected with a stinger net for swimming between the months of November until April. When holidaying in the tropics...
