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!

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 😊

Temple Palm Cove 2 Bedroom Luxury Apartment

Nick And IsabelRating, 5 stars10 months ago
So much better than anticipated! Mark ensured our first stay in Palm Cove was memorable - Sea Temple was excellent, with a heated pool, table service, and an ideal kids pool. Tastes (hotel resto) also very good. The private walk to the beach and short distance to excellent restaurants like Nunus (recommend for sunrise and lunch) and Vivo.

Great stay at Amphora as always. Loved the location and this property lived up to expectations. Bronson was a great host made our stay and key pick up and drop off easy.

Luxury one bed Apt 323: Ocean Front Resort & Spa

KirstyRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
We thoroughly enjoyed our recent nine night stay at David and Morag's apartment. Apartment is spacious and well-equipped, bed is very comfy. Resort pools are great, our son lived in the Lagoon pool! Location is quiet, with easy beach access but still close to everything in Palm Cove. There was a wedding and no pre-warning from the Pullman this time, but having stayed before we knew to expect an event or two sometime during our stay, so noise did not bother us at all and finished by 10:30pm. Despite David and Morag being overseas at the time, all communication was still extremely timely and detailed. Thank you once again for accommodating our little family so well - we have loved the last three stays in your Pullman units and hopefully will be back again one day!

It was a great stay at David and Morag's place. Everything is as is described in the airbnb listing and they provided lots of things to make the stay as comfortable as can be. The Sea Temple is an easy walk to the Palm Cove strip and a good morning stroll to Clifton Village, where the Coles is located. Thank you David and Morag

Kate’s apartment is in one of the best complexes in Palm Cove. It is perfectly situated in the Main Street opposite the beach. We stayed there for the Ironman event and were very happy to have chosen it. It is very homely and with all the appliances and kitchenware you could need, plus a washing machine and dryer. Highly recommended.
