It is 15 minutes from Cairns International Airport and 20 minutes from the Cairns City Centre.

“Great location, loved the lagoon pool and the heated lap pool. Apartment was modern, clean and spacious for a family of 4. The complex was nice and quiet, although we did hear our neighbours walking around above but it wasn’t an issue.”

Marlin Cove Resort was born in 1996 and has spent it's time going from strength-to-strength ever since. While I could list every feature and facility the Resort has on offer, use every cliche I know and convince you our heated lap pool is 'heavenly', our lagoon pool is a 'joy to behold' and our tennis court is a 'fitness enthusiasts dream' - what I believe is important about us is simple, and doesn't need flowery descriptions. We're an enjoyable place to stay, and we'd love to meet you. (And the pool is quite nice.)
