Fabulous Cairns

What a fantastic 5 days in Cairns! The location totally made our stay! The convenience of the apartment to everything was perfect. Kitchen fully equipped to cook up meals with the kids, night markets downstairs to grab a variety of food for all. Shopping trolley to do a Woolies shop and coffee downstairs after an early morning sunrise walk for mum. Really cannot fault anything and totally recommend this place, we’ll be back. Thanks Darryl and the BreakFree staff

Perfect spot for our 4 days in Cairns. Nice view from balcony and very comfortable bed. Could be 5 stars…just needs a little paint job so the walls don’t look so dingy (our first impression). The apartment is in a great location to walk everywhere. Communication with owner is excellent.
