Lovely apartment close to central Cairns
Apartment was perfect for us as a family of 4. Kitchen was well set up with everything we needed to cook our own meals, and the shopping centre was only a few blocks away. Good location with an easy drive to city centre. Kids spent a lot of time in the pool and the neighbours were all friendly and full of kid friendly suggestions for things to do around Cairns. We had a great stay!
