With 255 beautifully appointed rooms and suites, most with balconies and water or garden views, you’ll feel instantly connected to the sea, marina, and tropical surrounds. Dining at The Backyard blends relaxed waterfront vibes with modern Australian flavours, while upscale amenities include a lagoon-style outdoor pool, fitness centre, and attentive service. Ideally located between Trinity Inlet, the Coral Sea, and the Esplanade, the hotel is just a short walk from the Great Barrier Reef departure terminal, lively waterfront precincts, and the heart of Cairns.
