Lovely house with amazing views, to accommodate our large group of 9 adults. The host was easy to deal with, the house was very clean and everything we needed was supplied. The pool area was great to relax around though it was a bit cold for most of us to go swimming! Great location, with easy access to Cairns central, the airport and the Skyrail for day trip to Kuranda. We had a very comfortable, enjoyable week. Thoroughly recommend this home.

The house worked great for our big party. There was lots of room in the 2 downstairs living areas for kids and adults to congregate. The 2 dining areas also worked well for feeding children and adults. The location on the beach was also great with kids able to play and climb in trees on the beach. The playground and cafe up the street were well frequented. Kids big and small enjoyed the pool both day and night. One little improvement could be to address the shower head in the main ensuite which kept falling down. Overall it was a great house for our family of adult children and our grandchildren.

Beautiful Family Home

Our extended family of 8 stayed here just last week (July 2025) & it was perfect for us. 6 bedrooms & 3 bathrooms plus lots of room inside & out. Peaceful location - you can walk to the cafe on the beach for breakfast. A car is recommended for trips into Cairns. Place has aircon as well as fans. Comfy beds. It was great.

Great location and great size for a large family. The pool is in need of repair - the surrounding ledge us cracked wirh several wobbly pieces - not a bother but definitely a safety risk! Lovely stay, everyone had their own room and it was a quiet street.

About the host

Hosted by Kim Burton

Host profile image
Our names are Peter and Kim. We purchased the home in 2012 after staying at the home, in that year. We loved the home and the area. We are based in Melbourne, Australia.

Why they chose this property

We have five children. Four of them now have their own homes and partners and we also have eight grandchildren. There is plenty of room for the whole family. Melbourne can be quite cool at times, and we love to head up to North Queensland for the sun and sea.

What makes this property unique

The beachfront house is very spacious and perfect for families and friends to share. The view from the top balcony of the coral sea is wonderful!
