Magnificent Views
We had a great time at this property in Cairns. The views were absolutely amazing. We had so much room for us to socialize, read, chat and play games. We loved being close to the Botanic Gardens which we visited several times. The property was very clean, warm and relaxing. The kitchen was well equiped.

Dream stay
We had the most amazing stay at this house. Every day we’d wake up and just be in complete awe of the view. We had so many plans of activities we wanted to do while in Cairns but we were all having such a relaxing time, we didn’t want to leave the house. I have never stayed somewhere that I didn’t want to leave. We all left the holiday refreshed, rested and relaxed. Absolutely beautiful house. Amazing hosts. Hopefully we will be back again

Quiet peaceful location with breathtaking views of Cairns & surrounding mountains
Lovely home with amazing views in a quiet peaceful location. The property as a whole has a very relaxed atmosphere and the hosts were very obliging with any queries we had during our stay. We wish we could have had more time to just sit, relax and enjoy the home and beautiful surrounds, but our schedule was very full, doing all the "touristy" things Cairns has to offer. We will definitely be back to take the time to just chill, unwind and appreciate all this lovely property has to offer.

Amazing views, fabulous house!
We enjoyed a very relaxing stay at Hillview. The house was exactly as described, clean and stylish. It is in a great location, a few minutes into the centre of cairns, but also really handy for the main road north. The views from the veranda are amazing, whatever the weather. Our hosts were very helpful and friendly. Thanks for sharing your beautiful home with us.

Stunning property
Our stay was sensational. The property, views, and location was perfect. The lovely little areas at the back and front of house were so special and we utilised every one of them. We met our super hosts who were absolutely gorgeous and so helpful. We cooked in most nights as the front veranda was so accommodating with the best views we didn’t want to be any where else. The nice touch of a bottle of wine and nibbles was very much appreciated - cannot wait to go back next year. Thank you Jacqueline & Richard. 👏

Fabulous Views & picture perfect location
The property and all the amenities were amazing & suitable for our adult family. There was enough space for us all to have privacy and time together. Views from balcony are stunning. Owners were wonderful. I really cant thank them enough for their kindness and generosity especially with a super late check out to correspond with flights home. Would definitely stay again :)

Fabulous House
This was a fabulous house to use as a base in Cairns. We were comfortable, enjoyed a great view towards the CBD and found it easy to get around even without a car for most of our stay. The house was beautifully styled and stocked with everything we needed. Would definitely stay again.

Mooiste vakantiehuis
