We were a little worried that we would need a car while staying at the Clifton Palms because of its location half-way between Cairns and Port Douglas but our fears were groundless. Kerryn arranged for airport transportation, all of our excursions (Great Barrier Reef, Daintree, etc.) provided free pick-up/drop-off, a large grocery store and restaurants were within a short stroll,...

Great apartment. Very friendly and helpful staff. Good location for beach, rain forest and Great Barrier Reef. Set one block away from the beach and only a 10 minute walk from the more commercialised areas. Will choose to stay here again if we are lucky enough to visit Cairns for a second time.

We stayed at the 2 bedroom apartment for 6 nights and had a fantastic time there. Kerryn who looks after the apartments is really nice and always happy to answer any questions. The apartment that we stayed was very clean had all the necessary amenities and utensils in the kitchen. All the appliances worked. There was a beach just a... More

Great location, short walk to the peaceful Clifton Beach or 10 minutes beach walk to Palm Cove with its beach front cafes and restaurants.

Friendly and helpful proprietor Kerryn can advise and book tours and... More

Efficient admininistration, helpful and generous service. Spotlessly clean apartment, stocked with everything you need (including a small bottle of table salt - a lovely touch and very typical for the attention to detail). All appliances worked - air conditioning, microwave, kettle, internet. Nice gardens, very quiet location and beach is 50m. Excellent value for money.

this place is clean and affordable,also so central to all tourist attractions,great room clean pool and bbq area and most importantly fantastic host in kerryn always wiling to help out with tours etc.would certainly recommend this lovely place to all...certainly will stay here again if in the area.

Place had a lovely homey feel. Only downsides were the people below us felt the need to yell loudly all night, but that is in no way the Hotel's fault & there was a dead Cockroach in the Kitchen.. But it was dead so that is a good sign haha!

Just a 10min walk along the beach to the highly touristy Palm Cove, this is a quiet, beautiful little sanctuary right across from Deadman's Gully and the lovely Clifton Beach. The rooms are fully equipped, self-contained units, the pool area is peaceful with picnic tables and a barbecue, the palm trees create a beautiful atmosphere, and the staff are just... More

This was our second visit to Clifton Palms, now with new owners, and Kerryn was so helpful particularly when we wanted to book a trip to Fitzroy Island at the last minute. It is in such a good position, nice and quiet, close to the beach, yet with a shopping centre just a few minutes walk away, and an easy... More
