Hotels near Cairns Airport - CNS, Cairns

For our family, location great. Short trip from airport, quick lunch at Red Barron Hotel, changed for trip to venue at Redlynch. We were only there for a few hours but found it to be a 2 star rating. I would not book this again.

Cairns is a great holiday destination it has so much to do, and it is surrounded by beautiful mountains and rainforest , it is a great place for everyone, and it has really good food, coffee and great customer service.

such a chill town with loads to do. Snorkelling on Fitzroy island, Kuranda scenic train and skyrail, loads of waterfalls nearby for hiking and swimming, big free public pool on the esplanade, lovely coffee shops, bars and restaurants, live music. liveaboard scuba diving with Divers Den out on the reef was phenomenol. Weather was amazing, warm all year round. loads of great hostels to choose from (I stayed in like 6 different places).

Very quiet part of Edge Hill where the apartment was. Close to big IGA supermarket and lots of other shops, within walking distance. Edge Hill has lots of good eateries. Close to Botanic Gardens. A nice suburb of Cairns, only 10 minutes away from Cairns by car, about 10 minutes from the airport. Good location overall.

Beautiful sunrises and sunsets. Private and peaceful. A couple of good cafes/restaurants and a general store. 10min to the nearest supermarket and to the airport. 15 minutes to Cairns City. Great base to travel up to the northern beaches

There is so much to do in and around Cairns. We opted for guided tours, which were a terrific way to see some of the area. We pre-booked (online) and did Kuranda by Skyrail and train, Cape Tribulation & Atherton Tablelands through Cairns Adventure Group, and the outer reef through Sunlover Reef Cruises. These were incredible tours and highly recommend all. Our tour operators also picked us up from our accomodation (The Green Place at Lakes Resort - incredible!!). A truly magical experience and one we’ll remember for years to come. The night markets had a great vibe, Rusty’s markets on Sunday were also terrific. So much to see and do, a week was the perfect break for our family of 4 - the kids can’t wait to go back. We chose to use Ubers rather than hire a car and this was much more convenient (and kinder on the wallet) for the week we spent ~$145AUD, and our accomodation was a 10 minute ride into town.
