Firstly, the positives: -Price: we got a good price through Expedia for 5 nights. -Location: this is in a good location. Not far from anywhere, even better if you have your own transport, which we did (hire car) If you don't have a hire car, or prefer to be within walking distance of city centres, this probably isn't the right location for you. Although its only a few minute drive in the car to the actual city. -Clean rooms, which was made up each day. -Very nice grounds, gardens and pools (3 to choose from - a large a medium and a smaller pool) -Friendly staff and good service at the reception desk and restaurants. We requested a change of room (due to being placed directly opposite the playground) and they were happy to accommodate this change for us. -If you have a later flight and have checked out already, or if you have arrived too early for check in, they offer a free guest lounge where you can store luggage, sit and relax, use the facilities, etc. There is a microwave in this room. -Family friendly if you are travelling with kids (we weren't this time, we were just travelling by ourselves) -2 restaurants to choose from in the grounds. A poolside café and a pizza/pasta restaurant. Negatives: -Car parking. If you have your own transport or hire car, be aware that there limited parking spaces. There are 3 carparks, however this is a large property, so at times was difficult to find a space, depending on which part of the resort you are staying in. Especially when they ar

We enjoyed our stay at Cairns Colonial Club Resort. It’s the perfect place if you want to relax and have everything on your door step. Swimming pools, playground, restaurants, cafe….but if you want to explore it’s not far from the city or main road north.

Easy and short drive from the airport, room is very average- old and small shower, nothing there to be delighted. We used this place as a transitional stay due to late flight arrival to Port Douglas the next day. It worked.
