Top Australian Butterfly Sanctuary Hotel Reviews

Coral Sands Resort

10/10 Excellent

"This is our 5th time staying at Coral Sands and we have loved it just as much as all the other times. The resort itself is just fab. Perfect swimming pool area with lots of different height levels for swimming abilities, pool water was like bath water and it was awesome that they provided lots of swimming toys like floats and snorkel masks. The general vibe is just chill and lush. We stayed in a 2 bedroom apartment which had plenty of space, our favourite thing was to sit on the balcony area for all our meals and just listen to the waves. The BBQs are immaculate, we watched people cook on them every day and they were always sparkling every time. I think the rooms are a little tired so maybe could have a bit of a refresh at some point but otherwise I cant really fault the place at all and I can guarantee we will be back again for our 6th visit."

Trinity Collective

10/10 Excellent

"Very comfortable, clean and secure What is there not to like"

Agincourt Beachfront Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"One of the best appartments we have ever stayed at and we have been travelling for 3 months all over the world! Clean, modern, spacious, kitchen was great and air con was amazing would certainly book here again."

Stunning Family Resort Style Home - Swimming Pool + Full Tennis Court

10/10 Excellent

"This is a really spacious and tastefully furnished home in a huge and beautiful garden setting. The kitchen is well equipped, with all you need of terms of cookware, utensils, crockery, cutlery and large variety of glassware. Both the pool and tennis court were well used by our family group of ten (grandparents, adult children and four young grandkids). There was an abundance of both bath and pool towels, and all the bedding was very comfortable. Good grocery stores and takeaway food options were a close drive away. Lara was a great host, always responsive to any queries we had. We would highly recommend Shanee Prana as a fantastic and very special getaway destination."

Trinity Beach Club Holiday Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"Friendly staff during checkin and checkout. Good amenities include all available in the kitchen. There is also a public kitchen with hotplate and stove beside the pool and spa, excellent for outdoor bbq.High efficient washer and drier ate in our room and made our stay much easier."

Access and check-in was super-easy with host, Nadia, providing all the info prior to arrival. Location was great and the local restaurants are well-worth a visit.If we ever have occasion to come to Cairns again, I’ll definitely be booking my accommodation here."

Relaxed Luxury with Stunning Pyramid Views & Private Pool

10/10 Excellent

"We had a fantastic stay at Mountain Breeze Retreat. The home is beautifully designed with gorgeous furnishings, stunning views, cool breezes and a well‑equipped kitchen. Everything was spotless, the beds were super comfy, and the pool was a standout — crystal clear, peaceful, and perfect for relaxing. The hosts were wonderfully friendly, gracious and helpful when needed, and their sweet little poodle made the stay even more special. We’d return in a heartbeat!"
