Located in Cairns, near Cairns Station and The Cairns Civic Theater, JDs Tropical stays is a recently renovated property, featuring, a garden and barbecue facilities. Both free WiFi and parking on-site are available at the apartment free of charge. The property is non-smoking and is set 2.2 km from Cairns Convention Centre. Even though we only stayed for one night, it was absolutely worth it. Every detail is so well thought out. There are bath salts in the bathroom, flip-flops, bathrobes, coffee, snacks, milk, cold water, so many lovely touches that make the stay feel truly perfect. The house is beautiful and very well equipped, it even has an oven, which isn’t always the case and everything is designed to make you feel comfortable. We had actually planned to go out and explore, but we ended up staying in because it just felt so cosy and relaxing! It was a short stay, but a special one and I’m sure we’ll be back if we return to the area. Highly, highly recommended!

Boasting pool views, Elysium Private Apartments at Beach Club & Spa offers accommodation with patio, around 200 metres from Palm Cove Beach. This beachfront property offers access to a balcony, free private parking and free WiFi. The outdoor swimming pool features a pool bar and fence. The host Stacy was lovely and very attentive. She goes the extra mile to make sure everything was spot on for us. We loved the pool area. The restaurant was excellent. We loved being close to the pool without being overlooking it as being close was noisy. We loved the Palm Cove weather and the local restaurants.
