We could arrive late at night and the check in was easy even though there was noone at the front desk yet. We had received a message with all the required information. We found a large room, clean and comfortable. Everything was higher than expected. We felt sad about only staying one night in Cairns

We were lucky to be upgraded to a 2 bedroom apartment overlooking the main pool. The apartment had everything we needed for our 6 night stay including a full oven and washing machine and dryer. Bed was very comfortable. Pool was heated enough to take the chill off the water and had plenty of loungers around it to sit and soak up the wonderful sunshine. Location was within walking distance to Trinity Beach, restaurants and even the local bus service to Cairns.

Spacious, fully equipped, proper luxury apartment with all mod cons. We greatly enjoyed the BBQ, along with the kitchen facilities and the full-size fridge freezer with ice/water dispenser. The location is central but quiet, with a pleasant evening aspect from the balcony, of the land rather than the sea. The local 'strip' is but a short walk away, if that's more your thing.

Fantastic accommodation with an amazing pool! The Pool Resort is a great base to explore the area including 4 mile beach. A car is needed to get into the central town but you can use e-scooters or the local taxi service as an alternative. The fabulous local St Crispins coffee and Beach Shack are walkable. We'll definitely be returning.

We visited Cairns twice during our travels.

We visited Cairns twice during our travels. The first time we explored all the main attractions- Aquarium, Botanic Gardens, Fitzroy Island and stayed in a hotel. Our second stay was for a bit of down time having travelled up to Daintree and the Tablelands. We really wanted a bit of relaxation and self cooking so this apartment was perfect. Great food around the pier area. The seafood on the Prawn Star was superb and if you’re self catering, then Woolies has everything you need. The lagoon is perfect for families as is the Muddy Cafe and play park.

Port Douglas is a very friendly place.

Port Douglas is a very friendly place. Shop owners love to chat. There are many tours available out to the Great Barrier Reef and snorkelling at the Low Isles. The Lady Douglas River cruise is exceptional value. Food tasting tours available. Explore The Daintree and Mossman Gorge. Or just relax in one of the many great pubs and restaurants in MacrossanStreet, Paddy's Bar, The Court House, The Iron Bar and the Mexican are a few of our favourites.

Palm Cove is a small beautiful area, very quiet if you are looking for a relaxing time. 9.30pm no-one around bars empty even at weekends. If life is what you are looking for then Port Douglas is bigger with more bars. We found nice restaurants in Palm Cove especially Vivo, meal outstanding. Nu Nu was a lovely setting, expensive and our table was like sitting on the medium strip of the Bruce highway, staff racing past not the relaxing atmosphere for a celebration meal more like a fast canteen!! Rattle n Hum food ok nice atmosphere. Live music at the Irish Bar food good

We had 4 nights at our beautiful house.

We had 4 nights at our beautiful house. That allowed us to visit a number of rainforests, creeks and waterfalls which are in close proximity to Mission Beach. We prefer creeks and waterfalls to reef trips and their are so many to explore such as Murray Falls and Alligators Nest up near Tully, Lacey's Creek near town, Josephine Falls about an 1 or so draive away and South Mission and Bingil Bay. The bars and restaurants in the village are amazing and very friendly and if you want to make your own food - the Woolies at Wongaling Beach was way cheaper than our local Woolies in inner city Brisbane.

Cape Tribulation is an amazing, beautiful place.

Cape Tribulation is an amazing, beautiful place. You can walk along the long, beautiful beach with the ocean on one side and tropical rainforest on the other. When you walk back into the rainforest you are on a boardwalk which takes you through huge mangroves then through the tropical rainforest with a stunning variety of rainforest trees and other plants. You see lots of butterflies as well as birds, goannas and fruit bats. It is a place that fills you with awe.

There’s so much to see and do in and around Atherton, from nature walks and water falls to cafes and strawberry picking to gemstones and geocaching and everything in between. The cooler weather is a welcome escape from the humidity of the coastal areas. Accommodation types are many and varied so there is something to suit every budget. The Tablelands are a food lovers paradise with a relaxed country vibe.

Daintree is OK for a one-day visit.

Daintree is OK for a one-day visit. That is enough time to take in the views of the beaches and to do all the boardwalks. You need to stock up on groceries before arriving if you are self-catering - the grocery options are very limited. There is no swimming on any of the beaches.

To add to flying fish review -we found it unpalatable. We booked for 5 nights but only stayed 2 due the fact there was no cafe at flying fish point although advertised. Also the staff were unavailable. Key was left with yard man as no one in office. Husband is disabled and it rained entire 2 days and when returning to cabin from car there was no mat inside to wipe feet on therefore floor was wet and hubby slipped over and injured himself so we returned home early. We are on age pensions and was trying to get hubby out of the house and it turned out to be hell.
