This is an ideal location, right along the oceanfront promenade and very close to the docks for charters and tours. Cairns has lots of great dining options and cool things to see whether out on the reef or back in the jungle. The hotel itself has a couple of lap pools that aren't really big but okay for a cooling dunk. There is a massive outdoor public pool just steps away though. Right next door to the hotel is the night market, it is also just down the street from the aquarium and 15 minutes from the airport. Hard to find a better location. Staff was accommodating and helpful.
