Fantastic pool areas with a variety of pool options. Nice cafe/bar by the pool with good food and friendly service. Room cleaners were very kind at fulfilling requests (extra towels or soap). Manager approved late check-out and another manager helped us find our room and carry our baggage upon arrival. We were kindly offered the guest change rooms after check-out so that the kids could shower and change after their final swim before leaving.

Ford Australia

Open car part but still okay. the Location is safe enough

David Australia

The value for money is hard to beat. Nice room that was cleaned daily, several pools that kept the kids more than happy and a price that was great when compared to other places.

Ben Australia

Pool and bar. travelled to cairns for a residential block with QLD TAFE but I had paid for the stay by myself because I brought my family with me. The kids loved it. Stayed here in March, and stayed there again in June, not staying anywhere else in cairns now. I love it. Be back in September, October this year and January 2022.

Lureena Australia

We had a great week in Cairns. The Cairns Colonial was a fab family resort. Kids loved the pool and parents loved drinks by the pool. Food yummy, service was good and laundry easy and accessible. Beds comfy and room features good.

Toni Australia

Stayed with my daughter - loved having two double beds in the twin room. Room was exceptionally clean, very large bathroom and the room was larger than most. Close to the airport for an early morning departure.

Natalie Australia

Excellent Staff. Excellent Breakfast Will be back

Souter Australia

Very close to airport. Clean room and great checkin at 1am! Lots of pools with water slides for the kids.

Matt Australia

Okay, there was bugs in the room - maybe putting spray in the room too.

Ratu Australia

Loved that it was so fabulous for students to easily swim and enjoy the facilities. Loved the milkshakes from the restaurant and the pork belly and Asian salad was delicious
