181 The Esplanade

On Cairns' buzzing Esplanade in Cairns North, this beach aparthotel sits steps from the boardwalk and minutes from Reef Fleet Terminal, Cairns Central and the night markets — a family-friendly base for reef trips and city exploring.

Rooms come with private balconies and in-room spa tubs or jetted bathtubs, pillowtop beds and kitchenettes with full-sized fridges, stovetops and microwaves — simple, roomy digs with cable/DVD or flat screens and free Wi‑Fi.

Soak in an outdoor pool, hot tub and sauna, unwind in the spa, steam room or massage room, or fire up the BBQ area after a day on the reef; tour and ticket assistance plus babysitting (surcharge) keep plans easy.

Complimentary wireless internet throughout, free self-parking, luggage storage, dry cleaning/laundry services and a concierge make short stays and longer trips effortless.

An on-site restaurant and bar serve local flavours, and the property’s BBQ facilities add a casual option for groups and families.
