About this property
Cottage at Holloways Beach, Cairns. Close to the city, airport and hospital.
A beach cottage, quietly located at the non-tourist end of the beach. Only a short stroll from the main hub and the local cafes, playgrounds, and beach side BBQs. The cottage comfortably sleeps 4 adults and caters for a maximum of 7 people if using the bunk beds for children. There is a driveway against the side of the house to park vehicles and a fenced backyard for larger pets.
The city centre is less than 15 minutes drive and close proximity to the Cairns Airport and The Cairns Hospital. Cable ski park, skyrail, and Freshwater train station (Kuranda train) are nearby driving distance. Fishing enthusiasts will love the close proximity of the boat ramp.
The sound of the waves from the ocean and the picturesque beach almond trees amongst tropical gardens are sure to add to a lazy afternoon and solid nights sleep.
This is a non-event property, catering for a relaxed family/couples/professional atmosphere. Disruptive or noisy behaviour will be reported in effort to uphold and maintain the street's peaceful atmosphere.
Complete with new kitchen, containing an oven, glass cooktop, microwave, toaster, kettle, coffee machine, and double door fridge.
The house is open plan and has 3 bedrooms and two living areas. The one main bathroom consists of a shower and toilet.
Living area 1 - 3 seater couch, floor rug, coffee table, side table and lamp, TV and TV cabinet. A range of DVDs, books, puzzles and boardgames.
Dining table with six seats, island bench with 2 seats. High chair available on request.

Fully air-conditioned.
Parking both on and off street. Plenty of parking for boat, trailer or small caravan.
Our cleaning fee covers everyday use. There is no need to strip bedding, etc, before you go. We do ask that pet faeces and shedded hair be bagged and binned and that cigarettes be picked up if not already.

Frequently asked questions
About the host

Why they chose this property
Holloways Beach offers all of the luxuries of the more high season tourist areas without the high traffic load and crowds. We fell in love with the beach almond trees throughout the neighbourhood, the laid-back friendly locals, the scenic views of Cairns coastline, and the charm of original beach houses.
What makes this property unique
Acacia Street is located one street back from the beach front and is linked to a pathway leading straight through to the beach. There is vacant land opposite the house, offering extra privacy and accommodating a unique wildlife experience. Often, wallabies, goanna, wild chooks, and many species of birds linger in the parkland. Beware of neighbouring creeks
Inhabited by estuarine crocodiles, please do not let your children venture to the creekside to play.
The outward appearance of the house presents memories of an era of Cairns gone by. It has been painted and dressed inside and out to accommodate modern living.
We hope you enjoy the relaxed neighbourhood as much as we do when holidaying at Holloways.
