Harbour Lights is the perfect location for a family to base themselves in Cairns.
Located next to Reef Fleet Terminal, you don’t have to organise additional transport to head out to the reef and nice restaurants.
It’s a very short walk into the main restaurants, night markets, Hemingway Brewery, Casino and lagoon.
It’s also an easy walk to the main shopping mall, train station to head up to Karunda, and you get picked up at the Terminal to explore the rest of what Cairns have to offer - tubing down Little Mulgrave river was a particular favourite.
I can highly recommend this property to any family looking to enjoy FNQ.

Thanks so much for choosing us for your stay in Cairns Steven.
It's always nice to hear when guests have enjoyed the apartment, it's location and also all the activities Cairns has to offer.
It was a pleasure to host you and hopefully we have the opportunity again in the near future.
All the best,

The property was lovely, and perfect for our stay in Cairns. The view from the balcony was spectacular! The unit was clean, spacious and comfortable, and had everything we needed. The washer & dryer were well utilized and appreciated at this point in our Australian adventure! The unit’s location was perfect - a very short walk from the boat that took us to the Reef, a manageable walk to the train station for our trip on the Kuranda Scenic Railway, and a very short walk to a nearby hotel for our tour to the Daintree Rainforest and Cape Tribulation. Uber service was also readily available in Cairns. Our host was extremely attentive and very responsive. He replied within minutes to several email queries made during our stay. I highly recommend this property for your visit to Cairns!
