The property was perfect for a family of 12, it was great having 2 lounge areas so the boys could be one area of the house whilst the adults sat out by the pool. Good walking distance to the beach. Good value for the money spent, we would recommend the property to any family

Great big house for families great location, walking distance to the main area and beach

We stayed here over Christmas and New Year’s absolutely perfect for a big group. The only request would be a bigger lounge in the living area or some outdoor lounges overlooking the pool as this is where we spent all of our time as families gathering but all in all we had an amazing time here.

Great house, great location

Tropical Essence comfortably the 11 of us who stayed. Everything we needed to enjoy our stay was available. As with other reviews, seating was tricky for the number of people in the one space however we made it work for us. The pool us fantastic and was well used by the kids. I would definitely recommend this property

We had a great family holiday here

We had a memorable & the best time at Palm Cove and Cairns staying at this property. Love the pool, the location a 5min walk to the beach & Palm Cove shops, and the break out spaces for the old, teen and young. One room had a broken fan & aircond, but this was fixed asap when reported. Top communication and no worries recommending Northern Exposure.

November 23

Overall very nice house. It was well provisioned with bath and beach towels pluse lots of cooking gear in the kitchen. Our only issues were the thin walls throughout which created noise issues. Even if talking quietly in kitchen you could be heard in the bedrooms. Same with using bathrooms and toilet. The lack of glass (only wooden louvers) in the front bedroom was a concern for O/S visitors

Birthday Festival

The property was at a convenient location to everything in Palm Cove and accommodated the 10 people who stayed in the house nicely. The cleanliness and upkeep of the property was not satisfactory, hence our rating. The kitchen splashback was greasy. The surrounding areas of the spa bath in the master bedroom was cob webby. The tiles in the pool needs some TLC. We had to fill the pool with water as the water level was low and the skimmer box was making a gluggy noise. The main gate got stuck which was attended to immediately upon our reporting of it. It would've been a nice touch to provide more essentials like toilet paper, shampoo, shower gel as we had to buy these, especially for a group of 10 people. One couch in the lounge for a group of ten was not ideal. We appreciated the condiments that were provided. Thank you very much for a lovely stay.

Great Location

great house for a family holiday. Short walk to beach and cafes. Plenty of room for kids to play. Well stocked kitchen. More sofa seating recommended as a 3 seater couch for a family of 10 was not enough. Overall we loved our stay.

Family time in Palm Cove

Our family enjoyed our stay. We appreciated the indoor and outdoor dining options. It was very well located and a short walk into the township. One piece of feedback is that we would have appreciated more comfortable seating in the lounge area as our big group could not all be accommodated.

What a great multi family holiday home

What a great holiday home. We had 4 families with plenty of children staying at the property plenty of room for everyone. The pool was large and beautiful plus an excellent child entertaining area! We would recommend the property for any large gathering. The only thing we found that was not good was the sofa bed. The matress needs replacing and was very uncomfortable. Also the living room could do with some more seating. Palm Cove is an idyllic location with excellent restaurants a beautiful beach and fishing pier. The swimming enclosure is great for kids wanting to cool down.
