A joy to stay
Visiting the area again for an annual sporting comp, we booked here because it is close to the comp area. The welcoming hosts were there to say hi and show us around the cabin. Lots of room for my husband and I absolutely everything we needed and more. Super comfy bed :) No TV but that didn't bother us-there is an iPad there for you to use. The supermarket and bottle shop and restaurants are close by. We give it 5 stars!

A True Beach Haven
If I could give this property 10 stars, I would! First, it is a perfect jumping off spot for travellers with a car to easily day trip to Cairns, Port Douglas and beyond, or the Tablelands, but is nestled in a quiet community with small shops, cafés, etc. just outside of Cairns. The property is private, meticulously maintained, and is equipped with quality - from the linens to the kitchenware - and everything you might need to start your stay has been thoughtfully supplied. The owners are very friendly and very kind, and are great fun to have a chat with! (If we didn’t live on the other side of the world, I think we’d be here every year!) Thank you so very much, Annette and Ray, for making our stay with you a memorable one!

Outstanding property
The attention to detail was exceptional. The property is close to Cairns airport, the beach, Kuranda Railway/ Cablecar and Tablelands. Ray and Annette are wonderful hosts and the unit was furnished with everything you would need for your stay. Enjoyed a dip in the pool and sitting by the outdoor fireplace in the evening.

This is my fourth booking in Cairns and the only one I was ripped off. On the other three I got 2-3 more space and half the price Plus one quarter the cleaning free. Other owners also helped by driving to grocery stores etc. because of an outside problem it was an emergency booking for me and only stayed 12 hours but still charged the minimal 2 day rate and the entire outrageous cleaning fee. Her cleaning fee was 3x higher than other homes that I stayed at for over a week. Post pandemic price gouging. The neighbor dogs barked that afternoon , the planes started over head at 4 am, I could hear the owners entertain quests all evening though I needed to be up at 5 am to catch a flight. It is no where near a bus stop, groceries are a 30 min walk. The owner talked about her protocols but I felt like I was paying for her cutesy decorations and not a convenient friendly location. Again I paid less than half for much better in other areas of Cairns.

We stayed 4 nights at the guesthouse and could have stayed longer. Annette and Ray are wonderful and generous hosts, the guesthouse is comfortable and quiet and has everything you could possibly need. We were very pleased that we could park our camper trailer off the street. Would certainly return on our next visit to Cairns.
