Wonderful place and location

We loved our stay at this place in Cairns. I took my two kids and they each had their own beds and we were able to use the living room and dining table to relax and eat. This was much better than staying at a hotel. Location is a 6 star! Everything is within walking distance. If we return we would definitely stay here again!

About the host

Hosted by Tommo Railton

Host profile image
At Cozie Homes, we understand owners’ needs because of our own personal experiences. We started out on Airbnb with a single room in our own house. Our success with this single room inspired us to let an entire floor, offering a cozie, self-contained apartment in our Queenslander. This eventually became two apartments, and we then spent a couple of years creating the perfect formula for maximising bookings and customer satisfaction.

A year later, we bought a second property and repeated the formula, to great success. Now, a few years down the line, we are a fully licensed real estate agency with a plethora of awesome properties, which we manage on behalf of their owners. Each one unique in its own way, sympathetically handled to reflect the style and personality of the owner.

With a strong background in hospitality and Cairns-focussed tourism, we really do have what it takes to make your guests feel welcome and happy during their stay. Our attentive, professional approach generates regular 5 star reviews to maximise ongoing revenue for you.
