We loved it here. The apartment was spotless and fully equipped with super “Hidden” cafe downstairs. Right next to the beautiful beach, tropical pool and close to bus stops and shops. What a little piece of paradise. A place of tranquility and calm. Everyone very friendly too. Can’t think of anything we would change!

Very quaint apt. It has the necessary appliances required to stay for short rental. We stayed for 10 days. The room was spacious & lots of seating areas. It is also very close to the beach & walking path. The bathroom door needs an update since it keeps getting stuck when you slide it. The fans & ducts does need some cleaning---noticeable dust has accumulated over time. The restaurant in the hotel has a lovely menu.

A fantastic spot. Great hospitality, cleanliness and communication from the staff. Very comfortable room, huge bed, well shaded picturesque pool, right next to a strip of rainforest that separates you from the beach by just 150m. Warm evening walks on the beach with access to two good restaurants, Hidden@Yorkeys and Ten06. I was considering giving a negative review so I could keep this secret all to myself.

The receptionist was very kind and the conversation became fun. The room was spacious and clean. We had a washing machine and a dryer, and we had a very comfortable time. It's close to the sea, there's a tennis court and basketball goal.

The property had a very relaxed feeling with a lovely lagoon. I enjoyed the tennis and basketball courts. It was nice being outside of the hustle and bustle of Cairns. My only feedback would be upgrade the bed, as a sensitive sleeper it was very bouncy as my partner moved throughout the night. Thanks for a great stay.

Hotel review
Excellent 11 night stay having arrived in Cairns for relocation. Hotel is in a wonderful location right on the beach and within walking distance to small shops, bar and cafe. There is a lovely tropical pool onsite too along with a small restaurant/bar. Our room had everything you would require and was clean and tidy. The hosts communication was brilliant and we couldn’t recommend the hotel enough.

Great location nestled amongst mature palm trees and a stone’s throw from the beach. 2 clean spacious units were perfect for 2 adults and 3 kids and perfect for self catering. Lovely mildly heated pool and the tennis court kept us all occupied when we weren’t out and about. Carl and Mandy were awesome and super helpful. Would definitely come back and recommend if you’re hitting the Cairns area.

Pleasant Stay
The one bedroom apartment was clean and comfortable. Shower and air conditioning were good. Location is in quiet street with good parking. The apartments are not serviced. This is fine but given the savings on cleaning the complex makes when you stay a week I would have expected supplies of toilet rolls etc to have been replenished. It’s a minor thing but somewhat annoying. Overall a good stay.
