We had a hard time choosing from several hotels near the Esplanade and we were so glad that we decided to stay at Pacific Hotel Cairns. It’s prime location is walking distance to various spot like the Esplanade, Marlin Marina (for island and diving tours), Cairns Central and many in between. We were warmly greeted by the hotel staffs who are all so attentive and friendly and checking in was flawless. Our choice of stay was in Superior King Balcony Suite which was situated in the higher floors overlooking the Esplanade/Marlin Marina was perfect. Room was clean and and super spacious with amenities perfect for our 4 nights stay and bed was super comfortable. We enjoyed hanging out at the balcony in the morning and be greeted with the soothing sound of morning birds. We highly recommend staying at Pacific Hotel Cairns for its great value and location, making it perfect for your next Cairns adventure!

We liked everything about this hotel! The room was spacious, equipped well, had a nice swimming pool and a wonderful view over the Coral Sea. Although the hotel is showing signs of its age, overall it was excellent. The staff were helpful and cooperative albeit the service in the dining room in the evening was a little slow and over stretched.

Went out to Michaelmiss Cay, great experience on a smaller family boat. Just need to pick the right weather,it was 20 knots and made it a bit uncomfortable for me snorkeling as I’m 77 but ok for everyone else. The staff on the boat were very friendly and helpful and safety was their main thing,checking all the time that everyone was on board etc and asking if you needed anything.

We stayed on the quiet beachfront main road at the southern end of Palm Cove which is not as busy yet has plenty of restaurants and a few shops. The beach is only swimmable on certain days owing to the strong onshore winds. There is a pleasant easy half hour walk through rainforest and beachfront to the next village of Clifton Beach which has a small shopping mall with a large supermarket - 5 minutes by car.

hotel was right on the beach so excellent for sunrise and sunset photos. beach is picturesque with a nice lookout at one end. close to restaurants, quick drive to a supermarket. phone reception was patchy on beach front but fine around the corner. room has only a bar fridge not full size. off road parking can be tight if you are last one's home.

The beautiful breeze was lovely whenever I sat on a comfortable seat on the grass near the beach... We thought the views were amazing in every way we turned on the walkway across the road from the Agincourt Beachfont...We will be returning. It will most likely be in the winter though, as humidity is very high in the summer for us, as a couple from the central coast, in N.S.W. Thank you! It is close enough for a drive to Cairns, Port Douglas and other beautiful spots.

The North Cairns area can be noisy because of its location near the airport. Road noise is also a concern during the day because the apartment is on the1st floor and no sound barriers between its balcony and the road nearby. Overall, though, the noise level greatly reduces in the evening and did not affect our sleeping at night.

A good alternative to the much trendier and therefore pricier northern beaches of Trinity Beach and Palm Cove. And definitely much quieter! A comprehensive shopping strip on the main street and of course not far from the large shopping complex at Smithfield. A few restaurant options available, including the yacht club. There is a bus service into Cairns CBD, but I would recommend hiring a vehicle for your stay. Taxis are very expensive.
