I thoroughly enjoyed my stay with Sandra. Her place was welcoming and very homely. She had great knowledge of the local area and some great recommendations. Loved her back yard and the chooks. I look forward to staying again.

Light Bright and airy townhouse

NellRating, 5 stars3 months ago

Lesley's unit was simply perfect for my family. It truly felt like a home away from home. The main king size bed was SUPER comfy, and the private balcony off the main bedroom was so peaceful and relaxing, as was the downstairs patio and little garden. The unit is so well set up for families, with so many entertainment options. The pantry/storage area is huge, with so many pantry staples provided if needed. The UHT milk was a welcome addition, for a cuppa before our own grocery shopping. The pool was so close and refreshing, and the beach was only a few minutes walk away. Kids loved the playgrounds, and I love the cafes on our morning walks! The local Thai is so yum as well! Quiet back streets for kids to ride their scooters, and fully stocked local grocer, bottle shop, chemist, gift shop and cafes. The Boat Club is perfect to walk to for a fish, drink, meal or live music. Unit is perfectly situated just north of Cairns, with shopping and tourist attractions all close by.

Wow! What a stunning place! From the moment of booking we were so excited to stay here as the photos were beautiful and reviews so positive. And we were not disappointed! Clean, with every you could think of or need, it ticks all of the boxes. Definitely recommended and we will be hoping to stay here once again when we come back to Cairns sometime in the future.
