Extremely good location, helpful and lovely staff, clean room, spacious common area, and complementay capsule coffee. At this price I would say it's unbeaten among other hotels in Cairns. One thing is that the rooms aren't quite noise-proof. So if your sleep is shallow, there is a chance that people coming back late could wake you up with their heavy steps.

We had a hard time choosing from several hotels near the Esplanade and we were so glad that we decided to stay at Pacific Hotel Cairns. It’s prime location is walking distance to various spot like the Esplanade, Marlin Marina (for island and diving tours), Cairns Central and many in between. We were warmly greeted by the hotel staffs who are all so attentive and friendly and checking in was flawless. Our choice of stay was in Superior King Balcony Suite which was situated in the higher floors overlooking the Esplanade/Marlin Marina was perfect. Room was clean and and super spacious with amenities perfect for our 4 nights stay and bed was super comfortable. We enjoyed hanging out at the balcony in the morning and be greeted with the soothing sound of morning birds. We highly recommend staying at Pacific Hotel Cairns for its great value and location, making it perfect for your next Cairns adventure!

The beautiful breeze was lovely whenever I sat on a comfortable seat on the grass near the beach... We thought the views were amazing in every way we turned on the walkway across the road from the Agincourt Beachfont...We will be returning. It will most likely be in the winter though, as humidity is very high in the summer for us, as a couple from the central coast, in N.S.W. Thank you! It is close enough for a drive to Cairns, Port Douglas and other beautiful spots.

A good alternative to the much trendier and therefore pricier northern beaches of Trinity Beach and Palm Cove. And definitely much quieter! A comprehensive shopping strip on the main street and of course not far from the large shopping complex at Smithfield. A few restaurant options available, including the yacht club. There is a bus service into Cairns CBD, but I would recommend hiring a vehicle for your stay. Taxis are very expensive.

Beautiful, quiet and relaxing (wasn’t crowded at all when we were there in June). Seems to be off the beaten path for tourists—seemed to be more locals there, so probably not typically as crowded as some of the more well known beaches. We probably wouldn’t have known about it if we weren’t staying at a house on the beach. Neighborhood is quiet and beautiful, although not a ton of beach parking for visitors. Beautiful walking path, small playground, picnic tables, incredible sunrises, sand is soft and silky, water is warm to wade in, however, swimming is not recommended due to possible crocodiles.

I loved the night activity and the Lagoon is amazing, very relaxing! Plenty of good food affordable food options, and casual tropical feel and lots of sun!!! I actually usually stay at Palm Cove which is quiter and I find it so easy to travel using the bus services, which are 50 cents per ride in Qld or $1.00 for the whole day, so easy to get around! One point I would say is Cairns City needs to get their street signage sorted out, as I spoke with many and we all felt either their was no sign at an intersection, or it was hidden and not obvious! Yes we can use our phones when they behave, but it is still vital to have basic signage! Overall I love going to far North Queensland as it is beautiful scenery and incredible plants and flowers thrive everywhere and very friendly!!! Leith, Melbourne
