Your Coral Coast Resort Inn

RonRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We really enjoyed our short stay at Ekaterina's place! The accommodation was fully furnished with everything we needed and was decorated nicely! The 2 bedroom layout was very nice allowing 3 people to get up at time of their choosing and not disturb the other 2. We would definitely stay here again and would highly recommend this host!

Palm Springs Bungalow

PeterRating, 5 stars2 months ago
This is a great place to stay. We enjoyed our walks down at the beach. There are also numerous places to eat there and the majority are dog friendly which was good for us. The house is well appointed with a large yard. A family could easily stay here. Overall the house is great and the area is superb

Trinity Beach Oasis

VickiRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
The Oasis was just that for us. We were in Cairns for Crankworx, it was perfectly positioned for access to the motorway and private so no one outside could see the bikes etc. The restaurants a short walk away on the beach front were great, would highly reccommend L'unico. Thanks Kate, see you next year if Angus doesn't break himself in Europe 😊

Palm Cove Hideaway

AmandaRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Hannah’s place was exactly what we needed. It was close to everything we wanted and was very quiet. Hannah was an excellent host and we would recommend her place to anyone. Peaceful, very close to the beach, excellent restaurants nearby. We were very happy staying there. Cheers Amanda

Villa Talpa—An Idyllic Indoor-outdoor Oasis

FameyRating, 5 stars3 months ago
Wow! Exceeded our expectations. I will be looking at other Boutique Collection holdings for future holidays. Our villa was perfectly suited to four friends who hadn't spent quality time with each other in a long time, but as adults with a big need for relaxation, it was easy to disappear to the solitude of our well equipped rooms when we needed a break from catching up.

Cairns Kewarra Beachfront Home

ChiaraRating, 5 stars5 months ago
In the 8 years I have been using Airbnb this was by far my best experience ever. The house was even more beautiful than the pictures online. Lisa was an amazing host. Always willing to help and super flexible. We are so grateful for our stay here. The house was so clean and cosy. The kitchen had all the necessary tools. The house was spacious and luminous. The pool is amazing to relax and offers enough space in the shade to read a book. We also loved the fact that the house was so close to the beach. Ideal to run in the morning or do a nice walk along the coast. The perfect house if you want a nice getaway with your family or a group of friends. Would 100% recommend and if we ever come back we will surely stay here. Once again, thank you Lisa from the whole family. ❤️

Beachfront Dome #8 on the Esplanade Trinity Beach

MichelleRating, 5 stars3 months ago
Stayed in Trinity beach for 6 nights. Dome was perfect for our stay and had everything that was needed, including beach towels. Cottage feel to the area and other guests/tenants were very friendly and welcoming. Shaded pool onsite was a nice alternative to the netted beach right across the street where there wasn't much shade. Centrally located that we could drive to Cairns for the day, Kuranda, or check out the other beaches nearby. Hosts were very responsive and easy to reach. Had trouble reading the dials on the stove but got it sorted quickly via messages. Highly recommend as it is a different experience from staying in a hotel or resort!

Stayed for a week & loved the location but only 1 restaurant, which was great & highly recommend. No cafes so we did a 10km round trip walking to Trinity Beach most days

Trinity Beach Tropical Hideaway

MeenakshiRating, 5 stars5 months ago
A sprawling home with great views. Kitchen was fabulous. The bedrooms and bathrooms were top notch. The patio area had comfortable seating. Even though the place is a part of a small group of apartments, it felt totally private. Covered car park was a bonus. Hosts are super responsive and helpful. One reaches the place through two flights of narrow stairs. It may be difficult to carry large luggage or if you have mobility issues. Otherwise this is a dream vacation home

Absolutely fabulous stay! The apartment is incredibly spacious and well-appointed, with everything you need for a comfortable and relaxing visit. We especially loved the view of the tropical garden- it added such a peaceful vibe. We truly enjoyed every minute here. As a bonus, the host kindly offered us a discounted rate for a late check-out, which made our departure so much smoother. Highly recommended!

1 Bedroom Superior Seaview Apartment

BarbaraRating, 5 stars2 months ago
Our beach view apartment was clean and comfortable. We felt right at home. Bradley was responsive with answers for things to do and where to get the items we wanted for our stay. We found Ellis Beach where there is a very good local restaurant across the street. We went into Cairns for the Rusty Food Market, open Friday- Sunday and also found Preston Fresh Seafood where we purchased amazing seafood for almost every meal. Trinity Beach is only 20 minutes or so from the airport and less than an hour from Port Douglas for our snorkeling adventures. Daintree is just a bit further away. Trinity is quieter than some of the other places to stay. We spent a very relaxing 9 days there and if we ever venture back to the Great Barrier Reef, we'd be back. Definitely a perfect spot for us and recommend it highly!

Arthouse cottage on the beach

LotteRating, 5 stars18 months ago
We really loved this pearl with the beutifull view. Really great atmosphere inside the house with art (some by the owner) and quirky stuff everywhere. Easy to get on trips and head out on tours in the area, and with at nice neighbourhood pub. We quickly got used to the heat and enjoyed the nice garden with its rich variaty of animals. We would come again if we had the chance 🌴🌴🌴
