Property was close to where we wanted to be. Beds were clean and fresh. Some maintenance issues in both rooms - ceiling fans were either like cyclones or hardly moving, only one bedside lamp was working in one of the rooms.Some attention to detail re cleaning was needed - old soap left behind, dirty cup in sink.

South Cairns resort was ok. It was dire need of maintenance and was very run down. Our rooms were clean and our requirements were met.

This property is very ordinary. It was cheap but we still paid too much. If we could have afforded to move elsewhere, we would have.

Restaurant wasn't open. Thats the reason I picked that place. Room wasn't set up with TV. Bath damaged needs to be replaced. Photos in adds are misleading. Place need extensive work.
william, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

It was pleasant and close to shops, plus a restaurant on site. but the room was not well cleaned and the towels were tiny and well worn. and the lace curtains were filthy. Perhaps this is because there are new people owning the place and it needs a lot of work.
Jannine, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The price was reasonable as it is a old facilities , the rooms were okay but not the outdoor.Tv was not working and no Wi-Fi at all the time. The Tap was leaking. The mattress were really bad.
