The Peony Isle—Luxe Lakeside Haven with Pool & Spa
We had the most wonderful stay at Trinity Beach. The house was spectacular, everything was as desceibed and more. There was so much to keep the kids occupied that they were reluctant to leave the house at times. The beds were very comfortable, plenty of pillows and extra throws. It was still very warm and humid at times in Cairns but the aircon kept us all cool along with the lovely breezes in the afternoon and evening. The kitchen was well supplied with lost of extra basics in the pantry. There was every type of appliance which made cooking a breeze. The bathrooms were well stocked with a lovely selection of shampoo, conditioner and body wash (Large Bottles not those skimpy one use only containers which I hate). The laundry was great, a big clean front loading washing machine and dryer plus a clothes line under cover and well supplied with washing powder too. The pool and the spa were what attracted us to the property and were a great sucess with all, will definetly come here again.

Villa O’Shea
Thanks for having us at your place. It was a nice house with a lovely pool and beautiful backyard, even better is the view from the front deck at sun rise. The only thing I’d say is given the location a BBQ would be a great addition, we would have really appreciated this but got by without it. O’Sheas down the road is a good pub for food and a couple of beers, and the cafe is good too.

Breathtaking views of the ocean and Cairns City
Wow 🤩 a lovely home and was perfect for the whole family I recommend staying here 👍🏼💖😍 Such a beautiful place 🌴

"Namaste" - Private pool oasis in Palm Cove
A very beautiful part of the world and a comfortable and clean accomodation in a gorgeous neighbourhood to make our visit extra relaxing. The pool was a real hit with our family! The landscaping at this home and the surrounding homes is spectacular. Thanks for hosting us, Nikki :)

La Palma Luxury Retreat With Heated Pool Palm Cove
We had a fantastic stay at Rob’s property! The house was peaceful, spotlessly clean, and had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing visit. Its location is perfect—just a short walk to the beach and shops, making it incredibly convenient. The hosts were wonderful and always responsive, promptly answering all our questions. Although we encountered a couple of minor issues during our stay, they were resolved quickly and efficiently, which we really appreciated. Overall, this property provided the perfect getaway, and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to others. Thank you for a great experience!

Coral Sea view 2 - Trinity Beach
Melissa’s place was everything it said it was! Your own private pool, beautiful views & modern bathrooms. A full size fridge, most appliances & a BBQ to make it feel very homely. We had the place to ourselves & had a nice & relaxing stay. Melissa was lovely, providing lots of information & went above and beyond to make it stress free. Any time we needed to ask a question she was more than helpful & kind. Would thoroughly recommend Melissa’s place to anyone who manages to secure a booking!

The Beach House
We were lucky to stay at this beautiful beach house on very short notice after other accommodation fell through. Nicola was quick to respond and helped us get into the house within 30 minutes of contact. when we arrived the place was pristine with a lovely homey feel and decor that suited it's tropical beachfront location. Kitchen was extremely well stocked with thoughtful touches like included oils, sauces and washing up material. nothing worse than a stingy host! The back deck was lovely to sit on with views of their very secluded beachfront, it felt like our own personal beach! plenty of room for the 5 of us with a great pool to chill out in. Thanks for having us!

Pole home in paradise @ Kuranda
Highly recommend! Great location, impeccably clean, and the most spectacular views! Our family of four enjoyed our time in this amazing house.

Mountain View Newley Renovated Home with a Deck
We enjoyed our stay well. This house is located in a quiet area but only around 10 minutes drive to city center and Cairns pier. The 3 bed rooms are very good for us. The huge deck looks very nice in spite we didn’t have time to enjoy barbecue. In spite there was some issue on the first day, but it was solved in a reasonable way, so we enjoyed our following 4 days’ stay very well.

Orchid Cottage
We had a lovely stay here at Amanda’s beautiful home! Quiet location only thing is you can hear the neighbours quite a lot in the night (not sure if they are connected?). Location is slightly away from the city centre but nothing we didn’t know before booking it! Beautifully clean and a gorgeous massive space and Amanda was really good with communication when we had a change of plan and needed to stay an extra night! Overall 5 stars- we loved our time here!

Tropical Escape Redlynch Valley
Great stay, incredible views surrounding the place, easy to check in and out. Would come back here :)

Kuranda Rainforest House
We just finished up an amazing 1.5 weeks at Renee's beautiful place. We're a family of 4 (2 teenagers, 2 adults) and this house was perfect! We had enough room to spread out but also great common areas to share meals, conversation and games. The kitchen had everything we needed for cooking - dishes, many different appliances, pots/pans as well as basic staples like olive oil. The outdoor spaces were lovely; the landscaping is beautiful and the large deck became our favorite place to hang out and watch the river, butterflies and birds. The layout was great for us - two of the bedrooms are connected to the main house via the deck so it gave everyone their own space. We had a chance to go swimming in the river which our kids loved. We arrived to Cairns very early & Renee was gracious enough to allow us to check in early which we appreciated after 28hrs of travel! We would definitely stay here again - we were sorry to leave!

Aeroglen Studio
Had a great Stay, really close to the trails and Airport. Would stay again no problems.

Cairns Central Walking Distance " Downstairs "
The location was perfect for us! within walking distance of the esplanade and many shopping and dining options. The place was immaculately clean and was perfect for our family of 5 including a teenager and young adults. Yummy and John were very responsive. A fantastic stay overall!

Tropical Garden Resort Style, spacious family Home
A lovely big house! It was perfect for our family of 11 to get together for a holiday. the pool and yard were great for the kids. It had bedrooms and bathrooms at separate ends of the house making it like separate wings for the two families. Rex was very responsive and accommodating to a couple of extra requests. A very enjoyable holiday in a perfect location.

Lake Street Retreat
This cottage was beautifully presented and stocked. We were really impressed. Appreciated the security gates. The garden and back deck were especially beautiful.

Chill out space close to town
Suited our requirements perfectly. Clean, close to our event, quite complex and private. Nice outside area to sit and relax with a bbq. Thank you Carl we will certainly place your establishment on our list for next time we are in Cairns.

Pet-Friendly in Paradise
This was hands down the best Airbnb I’ve ever stayed in—better than modern city apartments I’ve stayed at in Brisbane and the Gold Coast. The space is private, secure, beautifully styled, and fully equipped with everything you could need—down to high-quality shampoo, conditioner, body wash, plush towels, and even salt! (which I always have to buy when we go to an air BnB/ hotel). The bedding was comfy, and although we stayed in winter, the place is so well-ventilated it would be perfect in Cairns’ humid summer too. The welcome touches—wine, cheese, snacks, and a handwritten card were so thoughtful. The hosts were incredibly kind and helpful, going above and beyond. There’s a BBQ, full kitchen, washer/dryer, and it’s close to takeaway spots and shops. The value was unreal—cheaper than others but by far the best experience. I didn’t need to buy a single thing. Just arrived with my bags and food. If you’re considering this place—book it. You’ll love it!

Stoney Treehouse | Luxury Cairns Rainforest Escape
Wow! What a stunning place! From the moment of booking we were so excited to stay here as the photos were beautiful and reviews so positive. And we were not disappointed! Clean, with every you could think of or need, it ticks all of the boxes. Definitely recommended and we will be hoping to stay here once again when we come back to Cairns sometime in the future.

Vintage Old Queenslander Central Location
Great place to stay. Walking distance to everything but in a nice neighbourhood with plenty of young backpacker style neighbours around. It’s an older house with plenty of character and was a great place to come back to at the end of each day. Really helpful and attentive hosts.

Close CBD &Airport | Private& Peaceful | Top Floor
Tara was lovely and always responded very quickly. The place was nice and cozy.

Villa Verde - Freshwater
A beautiful, spacious and clean house. Safe, secure and quiet at night, amongst the trees.

Tropical Retreat
I have no words to describe how beautiful Lindsey’s home is. I went on a solo trip and felt incredibly comfortable and happy there. It’s super private, with a stunning swimming pool, a super comfy bed, and the most charming decor. Lindsey was so kind and helpful throughout my stay. I even got to try a delicious meal from her neighbor, delivered right to the house! I’m honestly in love with the whole experience! 100% recommended. Thank you so much, Lindsey!
