    The entire complex was wonderful. The apartment was spacious, modern and had fabulous facilities. The pool complex was amazing and had an unreal view over the coral sea. Barbecue facilities at the pool was an added bonus. Staff at the apartment were super and very kindly allowed us to stay for an extra couple of hours beyond checkout as we had a very long flight home. The apartment was right on the beach and some lovely cafes and restaurants close by.

    The hotel was in a nice location not too far from the center, the rooms were nice, the pool was really nice, but the staff was amazing. They gave us a free upgrade and free early check in because of how hot it was when we arrived. A staff member gave out ice creams on a particularly hot day to people at the pool. And there was a bbq grill for use. I would stay again next time I’m in cairns.

    Tours are great paranella park and kuranda are the 2 I recommend. There is plenty to do around cairns city. Muddies playground was just 5 minutes walk to the esplanade from where we stayed its more for younger children and there is a cafe next to it where you can order extra hot coffee. And the lagoon is great for those who love the water.

    The North Cairns area can be noisy because of its location near the airport. Road noise is also a concern during the day because the apartment is on the1st floor and no sound barriers between its balcony and the road nearby. Overall, though, the noise level greatly reduces in the evening and did not affect our sleeping at night.

    The beautiful breeze was lovely whenever I sat on a comfortable seat on the grass near the beach... We thought the views were amazing in every way we turned on the walkway across the road from the Agincourt Beachfont...We will be returning. It will most likely be in the winter though, as humidity is very high in the summer for us, as a couple from the central coast, in N.S.W. Thank you! It is close enough for a drive to Cairns, Port Douglas and other beautiful spots.

    A good alternative to the much trendier and therefore pricier northern beaches of Trinity Beach and Palm Cove. And definitely much quieter! A comprehensive shopping strip on the main street and of course not far from the large shopping complex at Smithfield. A few restaurant options available, including the yacht club. There is a bus service into Cairns CBD, but I would recommend hiring a vehicle for your stay. Taxis are very expensive.

    Beautiful, quiet and relaxing (wasn’t crowded at all when we were there in June). Seems to be off the beaten path for tourists—seemed to be more locals there, so probably not typically as crowded as some of the more well known beaches. We probably wouldn’t have known about it if we weren’t staying at a house on the beach. Neighborhood is quiet and beautiful, although not a ton of beach parking for visitors. Beautiful walking path, small playground, picnic tables, incredible sunrises, sand is soft and silky, water is warm to wade in, however, swimming is not recommended due to possible crocodiles.
