Beachfront vacation rentals in Cairns

Beautiful house, so peaceful. Exactly what we wanted, the kids loved the pool. Great communication from host, would highly recommend to anyone looking for a peaceful relaxing getaway, the house is perfect. thank you for having us 😀

Kate is the most wonderful host and Kate’s space is absolutely incredible. One of the best air bnbs I’ve ever stayed in! It’s private, big and looks brand new! I loved it so much I decided to book a second night. If you’re looking for a place to stay in Cairns this is your place! It’s close walking to the shops and surrounded by beautiful nature. Whenever I’m back in Cairns I’ll be coming here!

this place is stunning, very homly, icy cold air-conditioning and waking up to that view was breath taking. dog friendly and very good location

I enjoyed an overnight stay in this beautiful home. I couldn't fault a thing and I was very comfortable here. Tania and Sandra have thought of everything for a wonderful stay. Smithfield Beach is an easy walk and Palm Cove close also. I walked to the local shops in 10 minutes. Some restaurants there too. Would love to come back and definitely recommend. I was already a big fan of Sea Turtles and I've just added another to my list. Go ahead book and enjoy!

We had a lovely stay at Machans Beach! Cute beach cottage style place that we loved 🥰 Quiet beachside area walking distance to a cute cafe and awesome local pub and only 15 mins to Cairns city. Amazing communication and very helpful hosts. We’ll definitely stay again!!

Very nice place to wind down and get away from the business of life being walking distance from the beach as well as a private pool in a quiet area not too out from the city.

Thank you for a delightful get away. We had a 3 night stay with our young adult ‘children’ who also loved it. The home is wonderful and the layout gorgeous. We very much enjoyed the indoor / outdoor living and walks to the beach. We love Villa Talpa - it was all we wanted in a special weekend away and more! See you next time… Thank you

Beautiful outlook, house was clean and tidy. There wasn't a long list of things guests were not to do and this made it feel more welcoming than some of the othere Airbnb places we have stayed in. We would definitely stay again.

The house was spotless, well-equipped, and incredibly comfortable. Ari was a wonderful host—responsive, friendly, and thoughtful. The location was perfect, close to everything we needed but still peaceful. Highly recommend staying here for a relaxing and enjoyable experience!"

We were so impressed with the quality and location of the property. The house is spotless and presents just as it does in the photos. The location is a short and easy walk to the main strip of shops and restaurants. The addition of a pool is a huge plus if you find the beaches are closed. Communication was always prompt and helpful. We hope to return again and have already recommended this place to friends.

Exceptional from start to finish! Tony is one of the nicest most genuine hosts we've ever come across. From the complimentary airport pickup and drop off through to the local tips and recommendations, his service was 10/10! The place is absolutely gorgeous with prime position overlooking the main pool. It was fit out with everything you could need for your stay and so close to all the restaurants and shops in Palm Cove. We have stayed in many places in Palm Cove over the years but from now on will only look to stay here - 100% recommended!

This area is very quiet and tranquil and was in a gorgeous area right on the water. Forewarning though, although its 'beach front', you are not recommended to swim out front and instead should walk to a designated netted beach. It's also a little ways from a decent grocery store, so stock up before you come if you don't have a car. The interior living space was large enough for our 7 people to comfortably hang in, and the pool was perfect temperature. The house quickly covers the sun though for the afternoon, so make sure to get in your pool time in the morning! We also had some issues with an aircon unit but Sylvie was quick to respond and was kind enough to offer a partial reimbursement. All in all, a fabulous and fruitful stay!

We had a great family holiday at Teal’s place. Great apartment in the perfect location!

What an amazing place in a tropical paradise.. The views were just magical. We loved our stay at Trinity Beach and are looking forward to coming back and staying there again. Thanks for having us in your home Melissa, We absolutely loved it!!

We loved our stay , beautiful home , perfect for our family, thank you so much. Would 110% recommend.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this ground floor Airbnb apartment in Palm Cove! The location was perfect for our family of four, with easy access to the pool right from our patio. The apartment was clean, spacious, and well-equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The kids loved being able to jump into the pool whenever they wanted, and we enjoyed relaxing on the patio with a view of the beautiful surroundings. The hosts were friendly and responsive, making sure we had everything we needed. Staying here in September was ideal – the weather was perfect, and we had a great time exploring the nearby beaches and restaurants. We highly recommend this place for families looking for a relaxing and enjoyable holiday in Palm Cove

We really loved this pearl with the beutifull view. Really great atmosphere inside the house with art (some by the owner) and quirky stuff everywhere. Easy to get on trips and head out on tours in the area, and with at nice neighbourhood pub. We quickly got used to the heat and enjoyed the nice garden with its rich variaty of animals. We would come again if we had the chance 🌴🌴🌴

Corinne was exceptional in her communication and was always responsive to requests. The apartment met all our needs, and the location is amazing. As a frequent visitor to Trinity Beach, I would stay at Corinne's apartment again. Corinne went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and provided many extras which was wonderful. Thank you Corinne, we totally enjoyed our stay in your apartment.

Georgia’s place was perfect for our stay visiting the Cairns area. We loved Trinity beach. We didn’t have a chance to try the cute restaurants but found the dome perfect for a family of 4 and stocked with everything we needed to cook our meals and lots of space to hang out in the evenings. It was very clean and they stocked many other things like beach towels, beach toys, a towel rack and more. The convenience store around the corner was perfect for the little extras we needed to buy, convenient parking, great location and views from the green space. Also the laundry was working and worked the best of all the ones we used on our travels through Australia. I would highly recommend this property to others.

I just loved staying at the igloo.. I have stayed at the igloos many times and this was my first time.. it has now become my favourite unit and can’t wait to come and stay again

We loved this property, it was very beautiful and peaceful- highly recommend

Carmen’s place was lovely and clean, open and relaxing. It was more than big enough to fit 3 adults and 2 teenage children. The location is right on the beach and close to many restaurants, very easy walk. Was great to have 2 bathrooms upstairs. Beds were very comfortable and lots of spare towels, even beach towels as well which come in very handy. Carmen was very friendly and kept in contact during our stay. Clear instructions were given and response time was very quick. Didn’t have any problems at all. Many thanks Carmen, would definitely recommend!

Kimmi’s place is absolutely beautiful: the meals I prepared in her kitchen with the porch doors open and the sound of the ocean in the background are by far the most aesthetically pleasing scenic meals I’ve ever prepared. The pool in the backyard is a great respite from the hot summer weather. I would highly recommend this place for anyone discovering cairns or the Great Barrier Reef area.

This second level flat is right on the shore in Trinity Beach and is just steps from multiple restaurants, shops, the playground and the beach. It is spacious, clean and has everything we needed. We loved the view of the beach and ocean from the balcony and the sound of the waves. It is really close to everything but still was quiet and private. The host provided great instructions and it was easy to find and check in! We loved walking around Trinity Beach, and it was convenient to drive to all the local attractions in Cairns and Kuranda.
