I got sexural harrasment from staff.
I got sexual abusive remarks and harassment from hotel receptionist. my check out day around 9:20AM ( my check out time was 10:00). I was sleeping but suddenly cleaner was in my room and cleaner saw my private part. I have never experience like this in my life also from my religious reason it's extremely horrible thing. I got upset and complain to reception but, the receptionist said the clear was know on your door three times nothing wrong. I completely could not understand what the receptionist said. then I got down to the reception place , and asked I want to talk with the manager but the receptionist refused. the cleaner was apologized me, However the super arrogant reception said " We will report to police because you yelled to us" " I will report to booking.com and I make you never use that again" also the receptionist using the word of sexual abusive remarks to me ( I can't write the exact word here because of here is public comment place and it was so dirty word) and the receptionist shouted to me " Go away now ! Go home!" other staff grab my body ( this meant same as physically assault ) and kicked me out. before my check out time.I can't accept this most horrible experience. I am going to ask to legal service with evidence as whole recorded conversation.

This review is completely untrue, this guest was never abused in any manner, and in fact this guest was the one screaming and yelling at the resort staff. He was totally incoherent and was not willing to listen to the staff or calm down to resolve his complaint. We can confirm that the the guest did have clothes on when the cleaner entered his unit at 9.30am. As standard policy the cleaner knocked on the door and called out 3 times when there was no answer she proceeded to open the door (the privacy latch was not on and therefore not preventing access to this unit)and before fully stepping into the unit called out housekeeping 2 more times before the guest came out from the bedroom. As we had not seen the guest during his stay with us we were unaware of his check out time and we often have guest check out very early in the morning and leave the key in the apartment. The cleaner apologized multiple times but the guest was just screaming in her face. We would like to point out that we had multiple other guests come down to reception to check on the staff well being after hearing this guest yelling and screaming. At this point when staff realized that this guest was not going to calm down and was only getting more agitated we did say that we would call the police, as we were concerned for the guest welfare as well as ours and the other guests staying at the resort. Unfortunately Expedia will not remove this false review. Regards Management

ゆっくりのんびり
市内から適度に離れていて、のんびりできるよい場所でした。 プールはそれほど広くないですが、逆に遊んでる子どもに目が届きやすかったですね。 キッチン・ランドリー共に設備は十分にそろっています。 IHの場所が角にあって若干使いづらかったかな? 今回は1階でしたが、2・3階へ階段で上がるのは荷物次第で大変かも。 スタッフはフレンドリーで親切でした。 近くのカフェも居心地よかったですよ。

レンタカー利用でゆったりしたいなら
ケアンズ市内とは空港から反対側にあるので、レンタカー利用でポートダグラスやパームコーブほど高くなく、ビーチ沿いのコンドミニアムがいいならピッタリ。 部屋は新しくないので特別きれいではないけれど、清潔でした。 ルームサービスは三日に一度と書いてありましたが、タオル交換のみで掃除はなかったようです。

Overnight stop
We were only there for a quick place to crash before transferring to another hotel near our final destination so we probablyvreally only spent about 12 hours there in total but it was very nice and comfortable with everything you would need for a small family or two couples. Had a beautiful large spanning balcony with seating and a a table as well with views down to the nearby beach. The pool area was welcoming and the gardens throughout were gorgeous! Not much tobdo around within walking distance other than a liquor store and Code which was avery delicious restaurant and bar about 2 blocks away. The guidebook for guests was a little alarming as they stated many things about havong a safe travel making it appear that the area wasnt safe at night. However we walked around and didnt understand the reasoning behing it. Overall it was perfect and i wish we had more time to spend there.

Nice place. Beautiful gardens
Was nice. Gardens are beautiful. 8 day stay and their housekeeping says you get mid week housekeeping if stay longer than 7 days. There was no housekeeping. Same towels for 8 days. Washing machine but you had to buy your own powder. Make sure you have your own body wash and shampoo as you only get enough for 2 days. Toilet paper also limited. No mop only mop bucket. Very out of date tiny tv. Worst of all, the wifi is rubbish. It was like going back in time. Continual disconnections. Had to use my phone as a hot spot most of the time for streaming. Not up to 2023 standard at all.

This is a nice propery but as it is in a sleepy neighbourhood of Holloway Beach that it isn't serviced by busses often (hourly) and many excursion (or airport shuttles) don't pick up / drop off there. If you don't have a car, you will have to rely on Uber/ taxi. The beach is across the street and is very nice, and the property has a nice pool. The unit we stayed at had a newly renovated bathroom and the unit itself is comfy and spacious, but it is otherwise a little on the older side and has room for improvement in cleaning (eg sticky cupboards / drawers).

Very pleasant stay for a week. Quiet area, beaches just a few steps away and supported with Cafes and short distance to groceries etc. Gardens are spotless and parking was great. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Be warned if you are staying on higher levels there are no elevators which can be difficult when transporting suitcases but then you are rewarded with great views. I could find the barbecue area but no barbecue. The Internet was patchy and needed constant resetting. The modem was old and would probably solve that issue. The unit was large and user friendly and everything worked despite being a little dated. It was furnished albeit basic but functional. I would come back to this place but recommend you have a car as it is north of Cairns city centre but we liked the area. The lower price reflected this and I recommend staying here especially if you wish to travel further north.

Location, nearby cafes and groceries were all good. Staff friendly and helpful. Unfortunate things were low toilet paper provided which ran out, no dishwasher tablets, wi-fi was inefficient and couldn't connect, dryer has no external ducting and safety cut-off operated after 5minutes, dishwasher broke down. Minor issues but it did distract from our experience. Would we come back, yes.

Ruby and her team are so lovely, kind and helpful. The units are fully functional to ensure a comfortable stay and are just across the road from Holloway's Beach for a beautiful early morning walk to start the day. The resort is about a 10 min drive into the CBD for other restaurants and reef charters. Its an ideal, quirt location for a fun and restful holiday.

All we can hear in the morning is the birds chirping. The close proximity of the bus stop going to the Downtown also makes it convenient to stay in. Highly recommended and we will definitely stay again on our next visit!

Great place to stay when you are visiting Cairns. Close enough to be convenient - but far enough away to enjoy the quiet of the beach. The apartment (72) was lovely with everything you need for a comfortable visit. Cross the road to the beach to watch the sun rise over the water or just sit on the balcony with your first coffee of the morning. Wayne is very welcoming and knows lots about the local flora and fauna. High recommend this place.

The resort itself and the apartment was really nice and clean. The location is right next to small beach but in a very quiet area. We arrived on monday evening and there were absolutely no restaurant of any kind available in the area. If you have a car it is no problem to drive to Cairns city and Über works fine.

It is right across from the beach and we could easily go for a walk. Whilst the bed looked a bit uncomfortable, we were surprised how comfortable it was. The unit is spacious. The carpark is handy. Loved the lush gardens. There is also a book nook if you need some reading material. There were 2 internet connections but both were extremely slow and often dropped out so we couldn't get anything done in the evening or other busy periods. There is also a restaurant / bar across the road. The music was very loud and didn't stop until after 11pm on the Saturday night and at 6pm on the Sunday afternoon. It is also under the flight path for the Cairns airport so it got very noisy. The 1 complimentary soap was the tiniest I have ever seen in all my travels and the bath gel bottles were 3/4 filled. Good size bath but at the upper level, on the Saturday night which was very busy, the hot water was very limited.

Thank you for your review. The restaurant across the road had a 60th birthday function and finished well before the midnight curfew. The same restaurant has a musician that plays on Sunday afternoon from 3.00 pm until 6.00 pm which we find most guest enjoy. As these units are self contained we do supply a starter pack. The soap is for hand washing. We supply bath gel, shampoo, conditioner and body moisturiser. The hot water is a continuous system which supplies 64 litres per minute. As Cairns has mountains on one side all planes fly along the coast to land. Regards, Naomi
