Zenon and his team took great care of me. Ask them to hook you up with Jeremy for a tour of the Daintree Rainforest. You will not regret it. Place is a couple of minutes on foot to central Cairns. Malaysian restaurant out front was very good. Check-in is possible after hours. Keys will be placed in a safe. Checkout and bag storage was flawless. Would definitely stay again.

“This accommodation was perfect for me as a solo traveller. Thank you!”

Great location! Although I didn’t use it the pool it was a nice inclusion. Staff were very friendly too! The accommodation is about a 15 minute walk from the Reef Fleet Terminal, which is handy as this is where you depart for trips to the Great Barrier Reef and Fitzroy Island. Thank you for a pleasant stay :)

“Perfect !”
