Holiday rentals near DFO Cairns

Awesome location for all the main attractions in and around Cairns. The house suited adult siblings and a grandchild. 15 minutes from the airport & 20 minutes from the ferry terminal. We only stayed for 5 days due to budget but did see many of the major attractions. Best time of the year to visit Cairns.

Secure property, super clean

We had a fabulous stay. The house was beautiful, plenty of space for all of us and extremely well equipped. The views from the balcony were stunning. Couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay in Cairns. The owners always responded promptly.

We really enjoyed our stay, unit had everything we needed. Very clean, so close to beach. We and the dogs enjoyed our walks ever day. The pool was great to cool us down. Jade (host) was really good to communicate with”. We would love to come back. Thanks for the great holiday.

The studio was perfect for our needs - middle aged couple - close to everything without being too close. Wonderful and respectful hosts. Would definately stay here again!

A beautiful base for our week away. Spacious with a feeling of luxury.

I took my partner here for a romantic getaway. The house is perfectly suited for couples and families alike. We woke in the morning to see uninterrupted sunset views then walked along the esplanade spotting dolphins. The SMEG appliances add a nice touch for a great iced coffee after the walk. The local restaurant/hotel is a stone’s throw away and is ideal for lunches and dinner if we decided not to cook. There is also another cafe run by a lovely Scotsman and a general store for all the essentials. We rented a car through Uber Carshare to see other sights including Port Douglas. We didn’t bring our 4 children, but will be back next school holidays as the house has games, separate bed and bathrooms and a pool that is easily supervised on the deck. Sylvia, the host, provided a helpful summary allowing easy keyless access to the property. We can’t wait to return!

Our host was very gracious and accommodating, and responded quickly to our questions. The location was perfect for us, all of the tours we did picked up within walking distance. We walked to Cairns Central, grocery stores, laundry, etc. The only thing missing from the room was a microwave or toaster. The coffee maker, kettle, and mini fridge were nice but it limited how much we could eat in the room, not having a microwave. Oh the shower has excellent water pressure!
