3BRGem. Ideal for Families

AndreRating, 5 stars1 month ago
It is a lovely spacious apartment on the second floor, everything clean and well equipped with utensils. Large covered balcony. Lovely large beds with good mattresses, nice shower. Everything sparkling clean and freshly painted. No noise nuisance in building. Walking distance from the beach and city. The town has a beautiful big free public swimming pool. Restaurant Noa in Edge Hill is recommendable. Two small downsides: there is no elevator and the apartment is in the extension of the airport, causing some noise nuisance, especially in the morning (no night flights). Leanne and Steve are very accommodating and friendly hosts. We would definitely come back back.

One of the best AirBnB homes we have stayed in. Our family of 4 thoroughly enjoyed the house and the amazing pool. Host was always very responsive and we really appreciated the extra thoughtful touches in the house with a well stocked fridge when we just arrived. Thank you for an amazing stay!

IanRating, 5 stars1 week ago
A great location with views over the lakes and the added bonus of the Osprey Nest. Short walk to local park. Handy to drive to nearby attractions or a little further into Cairns CBD just 10 mins away. Neat and tidy, easy to find, all you need.

Abode Palm Cove Ground Floor Swim Out

KatherineRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We had a wonderful family holiday at Dianne’s place. The apartment was perfect for our family with two young toddlers, beautiful setting, clean, comfortable and all the extras for kids, toys, pool toys and a great outdoor spa bath. We had a lot of fun at the resort beach pool and the location in Palm Cove is perfect, by the beach and restaurants. Would definitely recommend and would love to go back.
