About this property

McLeod Escape Central Base by Markets and Waterfront

Welcome to your central pad in the heart of Cairns—a fuss-free, well-located home just minutes from buzzing markets, the waterfront lagoon, the aquarium, and some of the city’s best places to eat, shop, and explore. Inside, there’s a well-equipped kitchen for cooking, a kitchenette for light meals, a breezy private balcony, and a sunroom designed for quiet reading. After a day out, take a refreshing dip in the shared rooftop pool or soak in the spa, with views stretching across the city skyline.
Discover this fuss-free, centrally located base—a laid-back getaway with all the essentials, perfect for exploring the best of Cairns. Step into the open living area and settle into one of the leather recliners for a movie night or make use of the quiet corner with a desk, chair, and soft lighting—ideal for journaling or catching up on emails.

Prepare hearty meals in the compact kitchen with a cooktop, oven, full-sized fridge, microwave, dishwasher and espresso machine for your morning routine. Near the entryway, a second kitchenette offers a mini fridge, sink, microwave, and pod coffee machine—ideal for prepping quick snacks or giving early risers their breakfast setup. Share a relaxed dinner at the six-seater dining table, then step onto the private balcony for sunset drinks and skyline views that stretch to the mountains.

When it’s time to retreat, head to one of the two queen-sized bedrooms. The primary bedroom opens onto an enclosed sunroom with a small table and two chairs—ideal for quiet moments. Inside, there’s also a sitting nook, perfect for working, journaling, or enjoying a slow cuppa. Built-in storage and an ensuite with a shower and vanity complete the room’s private, self-contained feel. Wake up to soft natural light in the second bedroom, then refresh in the family bathroom with a shower-over-bath. For longer stays, the internal laundry is fully equipped with a front-loading washer, dryer, and all the essentials to keep things simple.

Take a refreshing dip in the shared pool, soak in the spa, or stretch out on a sunlounger with a book. Stay comfortable with split-system air conditioning and ceiling fans. The building includes secure garage parking for one vehicle and convenient lift access to your floor. This stay consists of two separate units connected by an internal interconnecting door.
Due to local regulations, we can happily host you for up to 90 nights. Any bookings that exceed this duration will be cancelled by Vrbo.
