A beautiful property. We stayed in the blue tower which was quiet, comfortable and clean. All the staff we dealt with were excellent and helpful. We had breakfast and dinner there as well which were good. Easy walk to the action end of the esplanade. A lovely experience all round.

Great room, lovely view and staff were excellent

8/10

Nice hotel and in a good location. Bed was comfortable, and nice amenities in the room. We did however have to move the room due to ants in the first room and a spider in the second room. It’s Cairns, it’s hot, it’s humid, some of this is probably unavoidable, but when you have to move twice it’s not great. Staff were very accommodating and helpful though, thank you for that!

Perfect stay. Super friendly staff, amazing room with an amazing view of the sea. Lovely and relaxing pool area, great location (near all restaurants), parking on site was easy and good value. Breakfast excellent. We were allowed late check (midday) which was great and could even use a spare room at 2pm to shower and get ready for our evening flight back home. We have stayed in a lot of places and this is as good as it gets in terms of luxury and service.
