Top Cairns Hotel Reviews

The Oceanfront Cairns

10/10 Excellent

"This property was being renovated at the time of our stay. The staff was great! They gave great suggestions on dining and activities. They were always available. We were close to the esplanade which borders the mud lake and lots of public park activities all the way down to the marina. We felt very safe there."
