The pool and surrounding resort gardens were beautiful. The apartment was spacious including great balcony, nice to hear the rolling ocean from the unit. Beachfront cafe across the road was excellent.

Lovely clean unit! Beautiful breeze and right on the beach front. A 10 minute drive to Cairns city but worth every minute for a clean and comfortable bed.
