Great place to stay especially if you have small children! So much for them to do. Rooms were clean and restaurant was great! They took us in late at night after being ripped off by another hotel- 24 hr service there! We stayed 2 nights and enjoyed it! Highly recommend!

Overally pretty decent
The hotel itself is a bit dated but there are lots of pools for kids and the staff are friendly. Food was a bit of a let down and too far from the city centre so you're stuck a bit if you want to eat.

We enjoyed our stay at Cairns Colonial Club Resort. It’s the perfect place if you want to relax and have everything on your door step. Swimming pools, playground, restaurants, cafe….but if you want to explore it’s not far from the city or main road north.

Easy and short drive from the airport, room is very average- old and small shower, nothing there to be delighted. We used this place as a transitional stay due to late flight arrival to Port Douglas the next day. It worked.

A nice and somewhat quiet place to relax. Kids loved the numerous swimming pools at the resort. Staff are friendly and helpful.
