I didn't feel very safe walking around the city unless in the main esplanade as there were so many pubs with drunk people talking to you. I felt 1/2 a school of kids were in the Cairns Central shopping centre at 3:10.

Cairns offers visitors the most amazing options for seeing this part of Australia. We did not see much of Cairns town itself as we were so busy seeing the rainforest, snorkelling and visiting Kuranda. We did go to the town to eat and there seems to be a tourist supply of cafes and restaurants, a marina, a night market and a promenade but that’s all we saw so can’t comment enough on the city.

Great location with lots to explore without needing to hire a car. We did a day tour to the Daintree rainforest and Cape Tribulation. A short walk from our accommodation to the railway station and we did a return trip on the Kuranda Scenic Railway. Lot of affordable lovely restaurants to suit all budgets. A favourite was the seafood dinner on the Prawn Star which is a moored boat near the Shangri-la Hotel on the Marina

It is fabulous, there is so much to see and so or just relax by the lagoon.

A tropical style, well positioned and well maintained neat hotel located in prime position in Cairns within 5 min walking distance to the Esplanade, bustling restaurants and bars. Magnificent sea views from our room. Couldn’t have been happier with our upgrade to a top floor sea facing ocean front room! Loved the layout! And the walk in shower. Thank you to the staff who were always smiling, helpful and willing to give you free cookies every time my husband visited the reception desk.
Fantastic location within walking distance to the bars and restaurants on the esplanade without being right on top of it. Hotel staff were extremely friendly and went above and beyond to help us out.
Accommodation was comfortable and clean, perfect for an affordable family vacation. The set up of our two bedroom apartment was ideal with the rooms being separated by the two bathrooms and laundry.
The Bay Leaf restaurant was wonderful. Staff were friendly and the food delicious.
The best apartments available in the city of Cairns - family-friendly from young to old. Super happy with the service and rooms provided at Vision Apartments. Rachel Maddocks at reception is always there with a smile and will provide top quality customer service.
The location of the hotel was perfect, so close to Cairns centre, the marina and the Esplanade.
The beds are soooo comfy!! Slept better than ever every night.
The staff were so friendly, so eager to please and help.
Very very convenient in terms of location. Hotel right on the esplanade so easy access to the main drag of cairns. Very respectful staff and clean room with some nice views.
