South Cairns Resort

We travelled as 3 adults, 3 children. We panicked when we first got to the place it looked rough. We went to reception to find it unattended but within moments of calling the provided number we were greeted by a nice lady who appeared to live there. The place e enjoyed the place to ourselves. It was out dated and we realised the manger was onsite. But they respected oir space and didn’t seemed fussed by the children who were loud and busy running around enjoying the pool. The locals or other guests I found to be friendly and welcoming to us and our children. Not at all the type I would describe as druggies like other reviews. The exterior needs work but for the price we paid, we were more than happy and would visit again as a group of 4-7. Love the joining rooms. Lots of bins provided and they attended to them daily. No complaints here. Although if you are after a nice holiday stay in a new resort. You best be looking at colonial club or something 2X the price.

Property was close to where we wanted to be. Beds were clean and fresh. Some maintenance issues in both rooms - ceiling fans were either like cyclones or hardly moving, only one bedside lamp was working in one of the rooms.Some attention to detail re cleaning was needed - old soap left behind, dirty cup in sink.

Room was not very family friendly, needs maintenance.
