South Cairns resort was ok. It was dire need of maintenance and was very run down. Our rooms were clean and our requirements were met.

The staff were very helpful with looking after our bags before Check-in and providing an easy Check-in process. The room was also clean with everything supplied. Thank you, appreciate this.

Easy location to access. Pool is fantastic. Common areas had many ashtrays full of cigarette butts. Smelt of ciggarettes everywhere.

Restaurant wasn't open. Thats the reason I picked that place. Room wasn't set up with TV. Bath damaged needs to be replaced. Photos in adds are misleading. Place need extensive work.

Property was very old and absolutely not what we signed up for. Its outside cairns centre only by five minutes of a drive. Next time won’t stay there.

Little bit old. But it was clean inside of the room.

This property is very ordinary. It was cheap but we still paid too much. If we could have afforded to move elsewhere, we would have.

10/10 Exceptional

In general a good standard room hair dryer not working. towels thread bare need upgrading.But its a good place to stay staff very nice
Sharon, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

It was pleasant and close to shops, plus a restaurant on site. but the room was not well cleaned and the towels were tiny and well worn. and the lace curtains were filthy. Perhaps this is because there are new people owning the place and it needs a lot of work.
Jannine, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

We have made bookings with your company for many years and were shocked at the condition of this Motel. A patch in the base of the bath tub,pillows washed but stained.Smoke alarm wrapped up in a Cole’s bag. Window had security on it but unfortunately the glass window wouldn’t close over it. I think they are trying to make it nice but I am 81 years old and we left there at 2.00am as the noise and talking from outside our window was unbearable.
Jim, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

This property is kot suitable for anyone to stay at. Our room had been double booked, so the lady on the front desk opted to put us into another family room (the only plus about our stay). We checked in, and had to walk through a hallway full of furniture and cigarette smoke to get to our room. Our room smelled of cigarettes, hot water did not work, the lights in the 2nd bedroom didnt work, the tv did not work. We were warned that paedophiles and drug users lived in the hotel so we should keep a close eye on the children at all times. We did not feel safe. We checked out after staying 1 out of 4 nights. The front desk agreed to refund our money, but will not respond to wotif.

6/10 Good

You get what you pay for

The accommodation was cheap and it was pretty clean but overall I wasn’t super impressed, the outside areas are pretty old and dated and look dirty and the furnishings, bedding bathrooms and rooms in general look pretty dated and the rooms aren’t very soundproof so you can hear a lot of activity going on outside. I guess you get what you pay for.
Troy, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Arrived at the property and there seemed to be people living there full time as there were kids toys, dog in a pen and the place had a dirty feel. Rusty railings, chewing gum on the tiles, dirty walking areas and people smoking. The place Definitely does not look like the photos, where the place is clean and gleaming. Ended up staying elsewhere as we had a work vehicle full of tools etc. Sad really as we stayed there years ago and it was a perfect place. I do understand if people are living there due to accommodation shortage etc but people booking need to be aware and the photos need to be updated.
HEIDI, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Our room was not ready until 2 hours after check in time, washing machines didnt work, clutter all through walkway to room, people partying outside room, dogs in rooms and in gardens, very noisy. Light not working in bedroom. Remote for tv not working. No one in reception, had to keep calling a mobile number for any assistance. Wi fi did not work either.
Jodie, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

This is by far the worst motel I have stayed in in my life. There is no resort feel here apart from the center pool which we dared not enter. The rooms are not maintained. Just check out the pictures! Cockroach right next to the microwave. The shower head also spays water sidewards as a bonus feature which wets the toilet and the rest of the bathroom. The bed rolls around on the tiled floor. The bath towels are so thin they remind me of a mini camping towel. They need to up their game. I will be seeking a full refund. We were also woken up at 3am by the restaurant staff talking loudly outside our window. Avoid at all costs.

2/10 Poor

We booked with no advance payment but when we turned up the lady at the reception said sorry we canceled your booking. The email was sent whilst we were driving ( who the hell on earth who is responsible would check emails whilst driving). The receptionist lady then said we can find a room for the night, then 2 nights, then 30 minutes later she phoned and said you can have your original booking which was 4 nights. To top that all up the bed wasn’t in a reasonable condition as my other half was obviously heavier than I am his side sank down therefore I have to used cushion to barricade myself from rolling down to my other half side. We put out the signage that we wanted the bed made and towels changed none of those was done. After 3 days my partner when to see the receptionist for a clean towel. Rubbish on the garden bed. Five nights of our stay with out the bedding’s being changed, floor vacuum etc
Greg, 4-night trip

2/10 Poor

Pour la chambre, elle était à peu près propre mais sans plus, elle est à rafraîchir . La literie est correcte, la vaisselle est présente et on peut cuisiner sans problème. Le très gros point noir c'est l'environnement, il est très sale et devant les portes des chambres voisines traînent toutes sortes d objets et saletés. Je ne conseille vraiment pas ce resort qui n'en est pas un, loin de là !!
