About this property

Bedrock - Relax & Recharge with spectacular views

Most guests describe their joy that the view is more amazing in real life than in our photos. It immediately puts guests into a relaxing frame of mind to make the most of their time in paradise.

Bedrock is ideal for a large family or a group of friends travelling together or gathering for a special occasion.

Elevated into the coastal ranges, the home was designed to maximise the tropical breezes and views to the reef and islands (even from the downstairs apartment).

The sublime indoor/outdoor living spaces allow everyone to make the most of relaxing quietly or socialising constantly. Bedrock has a gourmet Miele appointed kitchen with gas cooktop that makes preparing meals a breeze. You can choose from dining indoors around the 8 seater table or dine on the back deck which also seats 8 around a Teak outdoor setting and really enjoy being in the tropics. The kitchen island will allow all to gather around to enjoy a meal or make plans for your stay.

The property is on a 1000sq metre fully fenced block. The lush gardens and large grass lawns allow for plenty of outdoor family fun when you want to enjoy the amazing Cairns climate, and whilst enjoying the gardens you can jump in and out of the pool or relax on the pool deck.

For those days when it does rain, the generous rear balcony provides an entertaining or recreational area protected from the wind and rain for all the family to enjoy. For more competitive families, the table tennis table in the garage is perfect for family championships, or board games such as Monopoly, Pictionary and Jenga will give plenty of exciting moments.

For designated lazy days staying at Bedrock, there are 2 TV's, with Netflix available on both TV's, so adults and children can both watch their favourite programmes.

You are only a 3 minute drive to the heart of Palm Cove and its restaurants and bars, or it is a very leisurely 20 minute walk. Perfect for an evening meal or nightcap with a peaceful stroll home.

Nearby Attractions

BEDROCK is only minutes from Palm Cove, which has some world renowned restaurants and bars. 'Nu Nu's' is frequently acclaimed by the media for their food, wine list and service.

Chill cafe, opposite NuNu's at the Southern end of the esplanade is great for breakfast or a coffee throughout the day and is one of our favourites.

Other restaurants and bars definitely worthy of a visit include Vivo's and The Rising Sun. Most restaurants serve food all day including breakfast. For a more informal venue try the Palm Cove Surf Club.

10 minutes south of the house is Cairns Sky Rail where you can take a gondola above the rainforest and then explore the markets and cultural attractions of Kuranda village in the hills. At the same location is Tjabukai aboriginal park, displaying aboriginal culture and history.

Next door is the Cairns Cable Ski Park for the more adventurous providing wake boarding, water skiing and knee boarding. Lessons are available for those wanting to learn.

30 minutes drive to the North of Palm Cove is Port Douglas, with its shopping, restaurants and local cultural activities. Just North of Port is Mossman Gorge which is amazing for a swim. Further North is the heritage listed Daintree Rainforest, with Cape Tribulation.

BEDROCK is perfect for a family holiday, but can be configured for a more intimate getaway. Come up and experience this beautiful home and location for yourself; you won't be disappointed!

Perfect for our group of 10

We are 3 families consisting of 6 adults and 4 kids. Each couple had their own bedroom upstairs and the downstairs area was perfect for the kids. The house was very well equipped with everything we needed to make our stay very comfortable. All communication with Alexis and Alex was quick, clear and easy. Highly recommend their house for a comfortable stay in tropical North Queensland.

How relaxing!!!!

We couldn't of asked for a better relaxed holiday stay as at Bedrock. Excellent attentive hosts that made sure everything was in place & in order. Nice and quiet with a great mix of local wildlife. Restaurants down the road on the foreshore. 25min's from the city Cairns. Situated centrally to all of the tourist sites. A must for family stay.

The perfect family holiday house

Situated in a quiet neighbourhood in Palm Cove, this is a beautiful property in a beautiful location! The home was clean, instructions were clear from check in all the way to check out, not to mention the views are absolutely stunning. There's plenty of room to hang out in the house and we loved that downstairs was a spacious little hideout of its own -equipped with a kitchenette and bathroom. All rooms had towels and bedding provided which was nice, as well as a kitchen with utensils, toaster and a coffee machine. The hosts Alex & Alexis made our stay very comfortable as they were very friendly which made communication super easy. We felt very welcomed by them. Aside from the gekkos and other critters that you would expect to come across in tropical Cairns, booking a property that you can look forward to relaxing and recharging at the end of a full day of adventures, can really make/break a trip - could not recommend this stay enough. Would definitely book again 😊💯

What a holiday!

Celebrating my 60th birthday at Bedrock with my whole family, including our 2 dogs, was something I had looked forward to for months.We arrived to find the house exactly as shown in the online photos - just perfect for a large group with everything you could hope for. The view was absolutely amazing and has made me long for a house with such magnificent water and island views. It was lovely to be able to splash around in the pool and have a few competitive games of table tennis. Within close proximity to everything we started our holiday with a trip to the Port Douglas markets and continued on for a dip at Mossman Gorge - a great day out. Our next days included a trip out to the outer Barrier Reef, white water rafting at Tully, the Kuranda sky rail and train and lastly jungle surfing and a river boat trip croc spotting. Pick ups from Palm Cove were very handy and supplies could be quickly purchased from the nearby Coles store only 5 minutes drive from the house. There were numerous restaurants to pick from in Palm Cove so we were spoilt for choices when it came to eating out. All this paled though, to our next experience. Two days before we were due to leave, our daughter in law suddenly went into labour (3 weeks early), giving birth to our first grandchild, a beautiful little girl, at Cairns hospital, 24 hours later! Amazing and somewhat stressful as, of course, we had nothing for the new arrival. Alex and Alexis came to the rescue. Tthey were incredible, allowing us to stay on at Bedrock for a few extra days, supplying us with information as to where we could get baby supplies and equipment and arranging for a portacot with linen to be delivered to us. What gems! They made everything easy for us and I cannot express my gratitude and appreciation enough! Well, the lovely bottle of sparkling wine they had left for us to celebrate my birthday ended up being opened for a different celebration altogether! If you are reading this review trying to decide whether or not to stay at Bedrock, all I can say is, if you do you won't be disappointed. Your children will love it, your pets will love it and you will have the time of your life in beautiful accommodation. They have thought of everything. Thanks again Alex and Alexis and who knows maybe sometime in the future, I will be lucky enough to visit Bedrock again. Maybe on my 70th! Baby Quinn sends you her love. Malcolm and Lorraine

This house was great for our 2 families. Plenty of space and beautiful view. The beds downstairs were a little hard , could do with a topper, but other than that is was fantastic. The location was great for us to go adventuring from. Highly recommend a getaway here.
