City Lights Experience the Best of Cairns

Summary:

Set in the heart of Cairns, you’ll be perfectly positioned to enjoy the city’s best attractions. Snorkel the Great Barrier Reef, explore the Daintree, meander the stalls at Cairns Night Markets or sample the Esplanade’s lauded waterfront eateries. Come home to enjoy seamless open-plan living that extends to a patio furnished for alfresco dining framed by skyline views. Cooling keeps temperatures comfortable, while an indoor pool encourages you to seize the day with an early morning plunge.



The Space:

Those searching for a central stay in the heart of Cairns, look no further. This contemporary apartment boasts a stylish living area with ample lounge space and sliding doors that extend to a large balcony highlighting views of the city. Start your day with a cup of coffee as you soak in the panoramic vistas, or unwind in the evening with a glass of wine, taking in the vibrant city lights. It's the perfect spot to enjoy the tropical breeze and indulge in some well-deserved downtime.



The kitchen is modern and well-equipped for your holiday catering, while a four-seater table provides space for casual dining or to set up your laptop and work remotely. When you aren’t rejuvenating with a dip in the heated lap pool, cosy up with a spot of TV before bed.

Spacious apartment within easy walking distance to all of Cairns' attractions and amenities. Large balcony was a bonus despite its (quiet) car park outlook, although it gave a feeling of spaciousness that would not have been afforded if we were looking into someone else's apartment.
