The rubbish collection on the property with large metal waste bins is very loud and in the early hours. Our room was right where the large truck made as much noise as possible.

Exactly what we needed for our stay in Cairns. Great sized unit that felt like home away from home. Right next door to Cairns Central Shopping Centre and railway station. Easy walk to esplanade.

Apartment was lovely and fairly spacious. Bed was comfortable and there was a balcony with table and chairs so nice area to chill. Pool areas were nice. Couldn't find a bin for recycling and it appeared everyone was putting theirs in general waste bin for landfill.

A very comfortable place top stay.
The apartment I had was clean and of reasonable size.It was fully contained - laundry, full size refrigerator, oven, good smart TV, etc. The only complaint is the design of the buildings. Every window & balcony looks directly into an other apartment's window & balcony. The pool view apartments have a bigger gap between the apartments. About a 1 minute walk to Cairns Central shopping complex, 10 minutes to the waterfront, 5 minutes to Rusty's Market and 8 minutes to the Night Market. The waterfront dining is about 12 minutes away walking.

Nice room with balcony overlooking pool. They were a bit reluctant to give us new towels and bed sheets after 6 days out of our 11 day stay. Overall though enjoyable

The self contained apartments were ideal for our stay. It was spacious enough to stay for any length of time with all the amenities you need, modern kitchen, laundry, lounge and dining on the verandah which can be closed off for privacy or from the weather with louvre shutters. Brilliant idea.

Conveniently close to the Cairns shops. Lovely pool area. They could probably get rid of all the signage telling guests what not to do if they want guests to feel welcome and relaxed. The sign inside the dishwasher was a surprise. Otherwise a great place to stay.

The only thing that was a little frustrating was the wi fi at times was intermittent. And the Chromecast played up at times and on occasion hard to connect. Otherwise thoroughly enjoyed our time there. Would come back again.

Handy tropical apartments
Great place to stay in the tropics! It has 3 pool areas. One of which is heated. One is a mini lap pool. Coming from Tasmania - always good in Winter! The apartments come with great facilities. We were able to easily cook meals each day. Also situated almost next to the shopping centre. So convenient.

The property itself is great, although you do need to be able to use stairs if your room is on an upper level as lifts don't exist. The noise comes around 6.30 a.m. - the front-lifter garbage truck arrives to empty the big rectangular metal bins. The banging as the bin gets lifted and emptied is very noisy! Bad luck if you were hoping for a peaceful sleep-in.

The unit was very clean. The only thing needing renewal was the dryer filter. I liked the shutters for security. I used the chromecast feature on the tv. It wasnot quiet though. I had to shut windows to put on air conditioning in order to sleep.
