Royal Palm Villas

"Horrible arrived Christmas Day 2025 and left January the 2nd 2026 never seen any staff we rang for more coffee, sugar ,toilet paper plus clean towels and sheets changed as we seen no staff even though there were businesses hours at the desk was told they were not serviced apartments and it was just a starter pack and if we wanted clean towels and sheets we had to wash them ourselves the bed was hard and the room very outdated plus the photos on the internet must have been taken a very long time ago the pool wasn’t clean and not inviting wouldn’t recommend any one staying there We had a ground room floor as I can’t walk up stairs so the room above us was really noisy and when they cooked the smell went through everything"

The Lakes Resort Cairns

"We stayed in a standard two bedroom spacious apartment that overlooked one of the pools, which was nice. Also having 4 pools to choose from was great. We visited the Thai restaurant on site a couple of times and I would recommend it. However, the resort and our apartment were tired i.e the pool had missing tiles. The showers were over the bath and would not suit anyone with mobility issues as the baths were high to step into. Our apartment would benefit from better cleaning and pillows needed to be replaced. Location is very close to the airport and with being on the 3rd floor, you can hear the planes very clearly!! It does appear that a number of the apartments are long term rental/owned rather than holiday let, but this was fine. We stayed here 10 years ago and loved it, but sadly we won’t be going back 😩"

Tradewinds McLeod Holiday Apartments

"Run down. Poorly maintained, It’s don’t cost much to put in new equipment. The microwave door handle is broken, electric fry pan looks like it from the 80’s and has no teflon Left on it, beside dirty before we used it. The steel wood is old and dirty come on it’s like $1 to put a new one in for each new guest when your paying over $120 per night surely you can put a new steel wood in a room. The manager isn’t friendly and it seems like he doesn’t want to be here. Asked a simple questions about local area and just got look at the board and walked away If we had our time over again wouldn’t stay here. We come back every two years for 1-2 weeks."
