We enjoyed the swimming pool. The air conditioning in the room worked well. The location was OK - only about a 3 block walk to the waterfront. At sunset we could watch the flying foxes going by. We originally booked for two nights and then decided to stay for five. We couldn't extend the original booking on booking.com, so we made a separate one for the additional 3. The hotel was able to amalgamate the two bookings so that we could have the same room for all five nights. And we ended up with a big room with a full size fridge.

Staff were super friendly and very helpful - they helped me book tours, arranged taxis, provided great tips on where to eat. I can't say enough good things about them. Hotel was in good location - could walk everywhere, shopping and grocery stores were close by. Enjoyed having coffee in the morning on the balcony, overlooking the mountains. Would stay there again.

This resort is a gorgeous Mediterranean style resort. Facilities are good, landscaping and pools are beautiful. We stayed in two different units as we travelled in between. The units were different but both lovely - our favourite one was ground level with direct access to the pool but the 1st floor unit had a good view.

Cairns is David Attenborough's Favourite destination in the whole world - The mountains meet the Rainforest, which meets the sea, having The Great Barrier Reef, which is 1 of the "7 WONDERS", within the world. Cairns has so so much to offer. We had a hire car, drove up Cape Tribulation, Mossman Gorge, Port Douglas, Tablelands. We took a Sunset Sea Yacht cruise, Raintree Crocodile Cruises, Port Douglas Lady Douglas River cruise. Cairns itself has a Night Market, a wonderful Boardwalk, a Free Swimming Pool for everyone, a fantastic boat harbour with loads of great eating around the central of Cairns. Cairns CASINO is also great for eating & a nice Casino. The locals are helpful and very friendly. Cairns has quality accommodation which is reasonably priced. We always love our time away in Cairns. Cairns weather was perfect, not a day of rain. Our Great Barrier Reef snorkling was also wonderful.

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.

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.
