Description

All the comforts of home: well equipped kitchen, dishwasher, ice maker fridge/freezer, wide screen TV, high speed internet connection (bring your own laptop to access), indoor and outdoor dining areas, panoramic views of the Coral Sea from the lounge and dining rooms. Quality linen, towels and toiletries.

There are four bedrooms, and three bathrooms. One bedroom with attached large bathroom in a seperate pavillion in the garden. 2 bedrooms are airconditioned but this is rarely needed as sea breezes keep the house and pavilions at a comfortable temperature all year round.

Comfortable family home

The property lies between the sea and a park with large tropical trees and masses of birds. The owners stay here regularly and have made this their second home with modern equipment and furnishings.

You can unwind gazing out to sea or float around in the pool and spa admiring the tropical garden.

The pool can be heated or cooled as required and is 25m long for lap swimming if you want to keep fit. At night watch the stars from the outdoor spa.

Walk via bush or beach to the mouth of the Barron River. Fish from the steps at the front of the house with prawns caught with your cast net like the locals do.

Area attractions

150m along the beach Sonia’s bar and restaurant is open most evenings and all day on the weekends or it is a short drive or bus trip to Cairns restaurants and nightlife. Basic needs are supplied by the local shops, a takeaway food store, a post office and a service station with mini mart.

Many of the tours to the Great Barrier Reef or tours to the Daintree rainforest, Port Douglas, Cape Tribulation ,the Atherton tablelands pick up from Machans Beach


Machans Beach is a small community set between sugar cane fields, the Barron River, the bush and the sea. It retains the look and atmosphere of the old Cairns. Yet Machans is the closest of all Cairns beaches to the city for shopping and nightlife.

  • "The stay at this home was great for our family, we had plenty of room in the home for all of us and there were 7 and a child. It has all anyone would require with the cottage feel. The backyard pool and area was great! It was so hot when we were there the pool was used all the time. James the manager of the home is great, he was able to accomadate all our requests. The area is great to tour around and I don't think anyone will be disappointed if you stay at this home. We hope to someday return to this area and would definately stay in this home. "

  • "The Blue Pools House was an amazing Home away from Home. I was so pleased by all the communications I had with James between the booking and arrival. He met us early in the day since we arrived before 10am into Cairns. There was also a bottle of wine and fresh fruit waiting for us. The pool was so wonderfully refreshing after long days sightseeing. This was a great base for our visit and I would definitely stay there again!!!"

  • "The Blue Pools is a magnificent place to stay for a wonderful relaxing holiday. It is the best appointed house that I have stayed in, there is absolutely everything in the kitchen you could possibly need. Sitting around the pool you could imagine being in a private tropical resort. The caretaker James was always available on call if needed for any information. I will revisit Blue Pools again one day. The wonderful platter of fresh fruits and home grown vegies that greeted us on our first day where magnificent."

  • "Clean, beautiful, spacious, comfortable home. Perfect for the seven of us. Lovely artwork. Excellent communications/coordinations prior to arrival. Easy payment arrangements. Incredible pool and hot tub. Professionally and thoughtfully landscaped and maintained. Pool house a bonus. Could not stop taking pictures, inside and outside. "

  • "Absolutely magnificent place to stay. Two families, four adults and three kids and plenty of room for everyone to relax and enjoy the beautiful pool and spa. Interior well furnished and supplied. Fantastic garden with so many stunning flowers to gaze at. Photo's can't do Blue Pools justice. Special commendation to James (manager) for his exceptional service, always keen to please."

  • "We had a lovely time in Cairns and at The Blue Pools Beach House. Great swimmingpool with a spa and a lovely garden. Short distance to Cairns and other attractions nearby i.e. The Sky Rail and Kuranda. Excellent service was given us from James. Thanks again,James! We highly recommend The Blue Pools."

  • "MAGICAL!!!! what a beautiful time we had in Cairns because of Blue Pools. Myself, husband, 2 children and in-laws all enjoyed the comforts and space of Blue Pools. The pool was amazing and came in handy as the rain fell. I couldnt count how many times myself and my husband spoke about how we wished we had a house like this. A special mention goes out to the pillows!!!!! It really didnt feel like a holiday rental, it was just that comfortable from day 1. We will be back! A special thank you to James for all your help and assistance. :) P.s - Our little man learnt how to swim in the pool, I think its because he wanted to spend every waking hour in there!!!"

  • "Blue Pools Beach House was simply perfect, situated in old world Cairns just as I remember and a great experience for our Sydney city children. To have our won private pavillion and the children (teenagers) with their own space was brilliant. We stayed a week and would have loved a fortnight. So well positioned to enjoy the waterfront, easy strolls along the beach to Holloways, the local island and cafes. The pool and spa were fantastic, it was very hard to leave for the day, Cape Tribulation was superb and the Jungle Surfing amazing and scary (you have to do it), Sky Rail & Kuranda beautiful and the Great Barrier Reef the best wonder in the world. Thank you Blue Pools and James, so welcoming and so perfect. Highly recommended."

  • "Great family house - great for big famiy dinners, hanging out by the pool or lounging around in the lounge room on rainy days. The kitchen was well decked out with everything we needed. The Machans beach location was great - the closest beach to Cairns and very handy for going into Cairns or north to the skyrail and Kuranda etc. We would definitely stay in this house again."
