Cairns Ocean View Apartment is a privately owned two bedroom, two bathroom luxury apartment, situated on the 11th floor. It boasts views out over the Great Barrier Reef with vision of spectacular Green Island on the horizon from the large balcony.

Views were amazing. Quiet location but a quick and beautiful walk along the esplanade to everything at the harbor. But the best part was all the thoughtful touches, like milk and chocolate in the fridge, plentiful coffee pods, dishwasher and laundry detergent, and more than enough towels for our family of five. No scrimping! The apartment was clean, orderly, and very comfortable. Wi-Fi service was great. We LOVED our stay.

    I loved the ambience, true to it's name- it looked just like a Colonial Club would have in the old days. The rooms are beautifully placed, surrounded by tropical gardens. The design of the resort revolves around the pool, bar cum grill restaurant. It is family friendly and child friendly as well. It is a short drive from the CBD, but not within walking distance. Very close to the Cairns Botanical Gardens.

    I like the swimming areas, cater for all ages - children and adults. Right by the restaurant, there are two slides and a wooden platform for kids and teenagers to have fun going into the water. A big screen showing animated films in the evening. I find it a great place for family.

    We stayed one night in a superior room. The room was fabulous. Large, clean and recently refurbished. There are no lifts so we did have to carry our luggage, prams and children up the stairs. Didn’t impact our stay overall though. Very kid friendly resort and was busy at the pools but didn’t bother us with younger kids! The food was a bit pricey but was convenient as the resort is not close to any other food outlets. Overall a good stay for a family looking for a resort which caters to the kids interests :)
