About this property

Cottage at Holloways Beach, Cairns. Close to the city, airport and hospital.

  • A beach cottage, quietly located at the non-tourist end of the beach. Only a short stroll from the main hub and the local cafes, playgrounds, and beach side BBQs. The cottage comfortably sleeps 4 adults and caters for a maximum of 7 people if using the bunk beds for children. There is a driveway against the side of the house to park vehicles and a fenced backyard for larger pets.

    The city centre is less than 15 minutes drive and close proximity to the Cairns Airport and The Cairns Hospital. Cable ski park, skyrail, and Freshwater train station (Kuranda train) are nearby driving distance. Fishing enthusiasts will love the close proximity of the boat ramp.

    The sound of the waves from the ocean and the picturesque beach almond trees amongst tropical gardens are sure to add to a lazy afternoon and solid nights sleep.

    This is a non-event property, catering for a relaxed family/couples/professional atmosphere. Disruptive or noisy behaviour will be reported in effort to uphold and maintain the street's peaceful atmosphere.

    Complete with new kitchen, containing an oven, glass cooktop, microwave, toaster, kettle, coffee machine, and double door fridge.

    Pool - 50,000L salt/Chlorine pool. Children must be supervised at all times.

    The house is fully screened with fly mesh and crimsafe to keep sandllies and mosquitos out.

    Fully air-conditioned.

    Parking both on and off street. Plenty of parking for boat, trailer or small caravan.

Beautiful villa just a short walk to the beach in a quiet neighborhood. Great for families. We stayed for 5 days and it was a perfect spot for a quiet family vacation. The home is well maintained, has unique architectural details, and is well stocked. It has been updated and has modern appliances including mini-splits in each room. The pool is a good size and well maintained. Across the street we saw kangaroos almost every day in the park. Highly recommended.

Quel merveilleux endroit où séjourner près de Cairns! Le cottage est très agréable, confortable, propre, douillet, joli. Les propriétaires ont bon goût. Nous nous sentions chez nous. Nous avons profité des lieux et de la jolie piscine avec plaisir. La plage et les environs sont magnifiques! Des kangourous sautaient devant la maison. Et les activités de Cairns sont facilement accessibles en voiture. C’est un bijou! Nous étions tristes de quitter. Le prix est aussi abordable pour la qualité de l’endroit.
