(789 reviews) Unfortunately unit was not spotless but in tropical areas you expect roaches and small bugs. Hairs and sand left behind in room and not a tea bag to be found but got tea bags from reception and overlooked the other stuff. Our unit was minimally furnished with the bare essentials. Third floor unit so we got a good amount of exercise walking the stairs as no elevators. TV only worked with one channel. Pool appeared lovely and area was beautifully maintained. Right across street from Trinity Beach with easy access. Centrally located for both Cairns and Port Douglas and we enjoyed the scenic drives. Car is a necessity and they have underground parking. Reception was very helpful as we booked a room with two beds (mother and adult son traveling) but they put us in one room with queen bed. Got that sorted the second day as reception wasn’t available with late arrival. Used lock box to get our room keys. Very pleasant staff - helpful for advice on tours. Even with the small issues, I’d recommend it and would stay there again. Loved having washer and dryer and kitchen for an easy warm up of leftovers.
