Cairns Beach Resort

Cairns Beach resort is a try hidden paradise, away from other sites, peaceful , conveniently located near the beach and close to Cairns and grounds and gardens beautifully maintained. Lovely pool area with BBQ facility. Has ample parking

Beware, this hotel is not what it appears. It is really not a resort it is more of a long term rental. Holloway Beach is not Cairns, it is at least a 20 minute drive to anything to do with Cairns. And there is virtually nothing to do in Holloway Beach, one tiny cafe and a very small pizza place. The beach is closed. This resort is old and tired, reception closes at 5pm, the place is kind of spooky.

We have been staying at this resort for a number of years and seen 3 turnovers of management in those years but this time was our best time ever. The gardens look better than ever. For us there is no better place around Cairns than this. OK, the internet connection in the units is not up to scratch but you just go to reception, there is a bench outside where the connection is just fine, or anywhere around the fabulous pool as well. The current managers are the best ever. Josh and Ruby will do antyhing to make you welcome and to make your stay a very pleasant one. Ruby is obviously very experienced in the hospitality industry and Josh, always friendly and helpful, is an incredibly hard worker. I have been an employer before I retired, but if I had had employees like Josh and Ruby, I would makr sure they would never have a good reason to leave or change employment. The gardens look better than ever, the maintenance programme is second to none. On the day we left all the gutters, rusty and overflowing, were being replaced. I hope my review is not a trigger to increase their unit prices, but we will definitely come back at least once a year and we hope that these two managers will be there to welcome us for many years to come. ?Ruby and Josh, you are real gems and the perfect example of managers who love their work, who are totally committed serving their guests.

"We traveled to Cairns to visit the outer Great Barrier Reef and explore its surroundings. We rented a one-bedroom accommodation, which felt like an apartment complex. It had a nice pool and included a washer and dryer. While the place was minimal, the air conditioning worked great and met our needs. The only drawback was that it wasn't close to the city of Cairns."

Great find.. A short distance out of Cairns . Northern beaches easy 20 minutes trip on local bus. Stop 1 minute walk to hotel Rooms clean, well equipped, comfortable inc washing machine and dryer. Kitchen stove top and microwave. Pool great area..never seemed to be crowded We loved location..across the road to beach. Small section with stinger net and patrolled by surf life savers. Beautiful sunrises,coffee on the beach watching locals fishing and walking dogs. Long walks along beach without the crowds. Cafe Strait on the Beach across road..open from 0800 for coffees, quick meals and snacks but once again location , location. Closes most afternoons at 4 to 5 pm ... is open Wed (ukulele night) and Sat PM's till 6pm with various live bands. ( No More No Less local band awesome). So no late night noise at units. Friendly reception and good communication . Books and DVDs available I'm a regular to Cairns but have definitely found my go to accommodation .

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Cairns Beach Resort. Apartment clean and well appointed. The managers are helpful, friendly and really efficient. The location is great with cafe and live music across the road and bus stop 1 minute away. Easy 20 minute, cheap trip into Cairns. We'd love to go back.
