Property looks a bit dated but the room was well decorated and fresh and tidy. Only a few blocks back from the Esplanade but quite a walk to central Cairns. Staff helpful and obliging.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities

Room was clean and smelt nice on arrival. The staff were very lovely and helpful. Fresh towels and the blankets for the room hadn’t been replaced when we first checked in at 2pm, but there was a sign in the office saying they apologise that early check-in wasn’t possible that day as they were understaffed, so I understand that they were extremely busy. The pool and BBQ area was clean and a nice spot to relax. The motel overall was nice and peaceful, and was very quiet at night- even on a Friday. Only thing I could say is it could do with a few upgrades of the TV’s and facilities, and some minor repairs. Other than that it’s a great place to stay, and I’ll 100% be happy to stay there again.

First impressions on the room upon entering

Nice little kitchenette with everything you could need

Bathroom is supplied with Shower Gel, Shampoo, Conditioner, Hand Soap, Hand Cream/Moisturiser, Shaving Gel, and a Hair Dryer. Shower gets nice and hot and has decent pressure.

Nice pool area, complete with a little waterfall and a shallow area for small children
