Mere steps from the esplanade where shops, dining and spirits await us post-Barrier Reef excursion.

The outdoor pool takes vacay vibes to new heights.

Private balconies with harbour, mountain or city views. Basically a win-win-win situtation.

Walking distance to the ever-hopping Esplanade.

It's always beach season here, and you're right at the action atop Cairns Esplanade.

Can’t get much more vacation-y than lounging by the Instagram-worthy, lagoon-style pool.

Sublime Bar & Grill serves up (unsurprisingly) sublime contemporary Aussie fare with Port Douglas region produce.

Secluded beachfront stay with a relaxing, old world colonial vibe.

Situated right on the Instagram-able beaches of Palm Cove.

Right on the perfectly-secluded Four Mile Beach.
