Didn’t get around to eating in the hotel restaurant but Muddys restaurant nearby was great for breakfast. Many other places in walking distance to eat at.

I love Cairns, one of my go to locations.
I love Cairns, one of my go to locations. My favourite thing to do is go snorkelling on the reef, swim with turtles and see the fantastic corals and fish. Great food scene, recommend the Atherton table food trail. Also like visiting the rainforests and visiting the Art galleys and markets.

Due to us shortening our stay, the things out of town, eg Atherton Tablelands, Port Douglas area, Daintree were not visited. However, we will definitely come back to visit these other areas, probably this time next year as the weather during our stay was fabulous - ranging from 26 - 29C each day. There was an abundance of great eating facilities which we enjoyed daily.

Cairns is a great place to visit in winter to escape the very chilly southern cities eg. Melbourne, Adelaide etc. Great selection of eating & entertainment spots. Foreshore is a lovely walking area at anytime, but especially pleasant at night with a massive choice of venues to just hang around - eat, drink and relax.

I was bit disappointed actually after waiting years to visit, however I wasn't able to explore alot so I imagine it may be better then I am perceiving if I was able to see more. However I didn't get the feel you do from some places like you would want to live there, well not right in city anyway.

The drive up north to Cape Tribulation from Cairns (stopping at several locations like Port Douglas and Cairns northern beaches) is a must. Beautiful rainforest canopy over the road at several locations and views of the Coral Sea alongside the road are amazing. I also recommend a day trip to Fitzroy island; take the 45 minutes track to Nudey Beach and be rewarded with a magnificent coral beach where you can actually walk through reefs and see beautiful fish, not to mention having a swim in the clear turquoise waters. Another nice drive from Cairns is to the Atherton tablelands, including the waterfall circuit; Milla Mills falls are truly beautiful!

Edge Apartments Cairns
Cairns
From $506 per nightRoom was clean, comfortable, spacious, and provided everything we needed for a long weekend in Cairns. There were a few restaurant options within walking distance (about a 15 minute walk), though the main town/tourist area was about 2K away. It was a lovely walk down the esplanade along the water to get there, but we ended up taking a cab back; a little too far to walk after days full of activities. So the room was nice and we enjoyed staying in a quieter part of town... but it's not exactly close to the main part of town, so just be aware of that.

From $287 per night
great new hotel. Very helpful welcoming lady on reception. Great cocktail bar on towertop. Good gym. Fantastic beds and excellent amenities in room - much appreciated upgrade to tower room. Staff in breakfast were having a bad day - stood by "wait here for service" sign for 5 minutes while staff milled around. no cutlery on table. had to ask for pepper and salt. Wrong omelette provided. Coffee machine on the blink. Areal pity as everything else in this new hotel was spot on.

Waters Edge Apartment Cairns
Cairns
From $284 per nightCould not fault this amazing place. As a base to explore from within easy reach of all tours , harbour and town. If you just want to chill perfect with cooling fans in and outside of property and pool. Our balcony fan was not working when we arrived replaced with brand new unit within a day. Staff very friendly, there if needed or in the background when not. If you go to Cairns and want self catering and comfort this is the place.
