"Great apartment, freezing pool"

Good

5.0

The apartment was excwllent , great view, very spacious

We booked because of the look of the lagoon pool & travling in the winter when the temp averages around 27c is a good time to visit Cairns. The pool was freezing, no good to use, if we had known it was not heated or going to be so cold, we would not have booked
