位置特別好。馬路對面就是網紅咖啡店。不遠還有超市,夜市,生非常便利。這次住在2層,窗外的景色都被樹擋住了,高樓層的景色應該很好。

房間就是大,可以做飯,入住第一天烘乾機就壞了,沒有幫我們及時換房,退房前一天來修,(我們住了四天)房間沒有遮陽簾就一個紗窗,每天早上七點就被陽光刺醒,晚上睡覺是馬路上的路燈燈光都被刺到房間裏,下次來不會再住

We loved our stay at Water’s Edge! The apartment was so spacious and everyone had room to spread out, even both bathrooms had heaps of space. The location is superb - being able to walk out the front gate and down to the main restaurants and entertainment precinct is what makes the location so great. Muddy’s Cafe across the road is also a great spot for a coffee or quick meal. We did find there was a lot of early morning noise - garbage trucks picking up skip bins and delivery trucks making stops at Muddy’s each morning - so pack ear plugs if you want a sleep in. The pool is fabulous and the kid spent a lot of time in both pools, (consider some softer pool lounges as the metal ones are a bit uncomfortable after a while.) Parking underneath the building was excellent and accessibility into the apartment was also excellent.

The 3 bedroom apartment was ideal for 6 people with 2 king beds for adult couples and 2 single beds for kids. Excellent location with city center within 2 km walk. Ground level parking for 1-2 vehicles. Ocean view somewhat obscured by trees in the park across the street. The beach view featured in the website photos was taken before the park was developed.. The apartment was very well equipped with cooking and eating utensels with cooktop stove, microwave oven, baking oven, toaster, dishwasher, and refrigerator/freezer. Independent air conditioning for living room/dining room/ kitchen space and bedrooms. The hot water pressure was very low in all the taps in the apartment. This was apparently common to the entire building because there was no remedy offered. The water jet system in the master bedroom didn’t work. The reception office operates only between 8 am and 5 pm. If you are arriving early or later, be sure you receive a code for the key locker from the management at least 24 hours before arrival. Due to miscommunication and flight delays we arrived at 1 am with 2 screaming toddlers and no key code and had to rouse the owner on the emergency phone to get into the building. We got in only because our taxi driver had run into this before at Water's Edge and talked us through the process.

We have visited Cairns several times and this is the nicest place we have stayed in. We were with our adult children and were very pleased with our spacious 3-bed apartment with a big balcony and undercover parking. Nicely furnished and plenty of space for everyone. An easy walk to the center of town yet very quiet and just across the street from the waterfront and a brilliant cafe (Muddy's). Lovely swimming pool and very helpful managers. We were particularly impressed and grateful when they went out of their way to contact us and arrange for something left behind to be returned. We will definitely stay there again on our next visit.

Water's Edge is located in a prime spot in Cairns. Having the esplanade across the street was perfect for daily walks and access to the marina with all the restaurants. And having Muddy's Cafe directly across the street was great. Our 3 bedroom swim out apartment was spacious for 2 couples. The master bedroom was in the front of the apartment while the other 2 bedrooms were in the rear so makes for some nice private space for each couple. The large outdoor space with access to the swim platform for the pool was amazing. Wish we could have utilized this area more but when we did it was perfect! After a hot day out the pool was a welcome respite. You also have a space in the garage for your vehicle at no charge. A perfect spot in Cairns to enjoy your holiday.
