It had all the amenities needed for a very comfortable stay. Spotlessly clean and pleasant decor. Great communication from host. 1 minute walk to Boat Club that has great meals, service and views. I highly recommend and will be staying again in the future when visiting family

Thank you Carola, glad you enjoyed your stay and you are welcome anytime !
Our host Stephanie was very welcoming upon arrival. The one bedroom studio apartment was nicely designed and very comfortable. It contained everything we needed for our 1 week stay in Cairns.

This is a perfect studio in a close to the beach setting. We were able to walk to the beach, local market,coffee shop,bakery and some local restaurants. While Yorkeys Knob Beach is a calm community, ideal for rest and relaxation, it is also nicely located for exploring the near by Rain Forest and the Great Barrier Reef. When we revisit this area we hope stay here again.

About the host
Hosted by Stephanie
Bonjour & G'day! We're Steph & Jotham, an Aussie-French duo with a passion for travel & the ocean, Jotham's hands have transformed every corner with his renovation skills and Steph added her French touch to create hopefully some cozy retreats. Steph spent over a decade as a dive instructor on the Great Barrier Reef and a local travel agent. With her insider knowledge, she's your go-to for crafting the ultimate FNQ experience.
Why they chose this property
We're personally renovating the entire place, with Jotham putting his trade skills to work and adding a touch of European charm that Steph often misses. It’s a labor of love, blending practicality with a cozy, unique vibe!
What makes this property unique
Yorkeys Knob boasts the only natural beach remaining in the northern beaches, all while being conveniently close to Cairns CBD. Visitors love the shaded esplanade, perfect for a relaxing stroll, and the area's reputation as a haven for animal lovers.
