Palm Royale Cairns, hotel in Cairns

Palm Royale Cairns is set among 2.5 acres of beautiful tropical gardens and offers rooms with a private balcony and pool or garden views. It features 2 swimming pools and a spa pool.

Room was reasonable size and bed was comfortable. We stayed here primarily as we needed elevator access to upper level room - many other units in Cairns only have stairs.

    Super shower! So much better than all of the ‘luxury’ bathrooms in much more expensive hotels and resorts.

    Pools were the best feature...gardens were well done and very relaxing. As far as a family resort goes, it's suited to the budget.

    The view from the room was fantastic! The location was fantastic! Close enough to walk to everything but far enough to not be in the middle of all the hubbub and chaos. Nice pool but we were there over school holiday and there were lots of kids being kids and not being considerate of others...but it's a family resort so...

    Cairns Beach Resort is an excellent place to stay for touring the area. It’s right next to Holloways Beach with a cafe just over the road and is right on a bus route to the city. Very convenient for visiting The Tablelands, Mossman, The Daintree, Cape Tribulation and doing a reef trip.
