"This is one of the loveliest places I've stayed. The 1 bedroom apartment was the perfect size for one person or a couple. We had a full kitchen, big balcony and washing machine & dryer. The staff were really helpful and the pool and pool bar were perfect for a relaxing holiday. Would definitely recommend!"

Great value for money for the the location. Just a short walk to the esplanade. Apartments could do with updating but it was comfortable, clean and a great pool

The property itself is lovely. The staff were helpful. Dinner was delicious. Our room however wasn’t very clean and had a manky smell. We tried to stay in the communal spaces, which were very pleasant

It was confusing apon arrival as t
It seemed to look like a rundown house being repaired, it was very unassuming until Trent walked us up to the studios!!
Absolutely beautiful small number of units which is joined to a large outdoor area area. Beautifully set up with washing machine machines and oven brand-new fixtures fittings. It was beautiful. It was really a nice place you looked at onto the pool. Very private very quiet and I can say the staff were absolutely lovely. I could not have felt...

We arrived to a lovely warm welcome from the staff and the rooms were so clean and the decor is marvellous. They had the airconditioner and fans running so the room was cool for us when we opened the door. The balcony was terrific to be able to see the beach but I am suggesting an inside apartment would be just as pleasing because the pool and the gardens were terrific too.
Would highly recommend the resort and Holloways beach is just beautiful.

We left our 2 small children in Victoria for the first time ever, to celebrate our 5 year wedding anniversary. Greatly needing some relaxation time, we sure got it. Peppers was so beautiful! Transfers organized from the airport were smooth & prompt, & the trip to Palm Cove quick. We arrived before lunch, but found our room was ready to check into a couple of hours early.

My partner and I stayed here for three days, two nights. We arrived at 9am on our first day and was shown immediately to our room, which was an unexpected surprise given that the checkin time was 2pm. The Reception staff made us very welcome from the start, offering some helpful hints for our stay and organising transfers, and even a complimentary late checkout. The room, a one bedroom suite, was enormous, large bedroom, two bathrooms, full size kitchen, large lounge/dining room and balcony...

We had the king suite. Our room was very spacious and clean. The mountain views were nice. Air conditioning works great. There is Beam e-scooter hire parking at the front of the hotel. The bar is nice.
Only tip to know is sometimes when you swipe your room key, if turning the handle down doesn’t work try turning it up (counter clockwise) something the front desk told us after we had trouble.

Beautifully renovated building in Art Deco style. The high gloss timber floors, the wallpaper, the ceiling rosettes, this property has it all. I fell in love the moment I walked in and will never stay in another cold impersonal motel room in Cairns again.

Wonderful location for a Cairns stay. Have been to Cairns several times and stayed at various hotels and found The Benson to be in the best location, easy to walk to dining options and to the marina or Cairns Central etc.
