Guest Reviews

• Dagmar (9/5): A home away from home - A home away from home. Perfect location. Clifton Beach is a place with few tourists. Quiet apartment. 1 min. walk from beach and bus stop (to supermarket, Palm Cove and Cairns). Reception is perfect: Linda is very friendly and helpful. Our Apartment had everything we needed, incl. washing machine and dryer. We are looking forward to our next stay. Nothing.
• Mark (8/5): Ticked all the boxes - Quiet and and welcoming.grounds and pool are agreeable and pleasant. Near beachfront,near busstop frequent safe buses.No pubs,no duffduff.No crowds,no rowdies. No obvious deficiencies
• Liza (9/5): -
• Ada (8/5): It was comfortable, but lift was needed, however the landlords son carried my suitcase up the stairs for me! - All good No lifts because of old building 1982year
• Chris (10/5): Great extended stay option - Peaceful, clean, home-away-from-home :) Close to the beach, great beachside walking tracks heading either towards Palm Cove or Kewarra. Coles relatively close by. Wide parking spaces great for unpacking and not needing to worry about grazing the car beside u Nothing

• Cheryl (8/5): - Quiet & great location - very friendly hosts Stairs
• Francisco (8/5): Pleasantly satisfied - Location close to the beach and local shops. Toilets were smelly on occasions.

• Qing (8/5): -
• Frederika (10/5): - Everything was perfect Liked everything
• Sue (7/5): -
• Deborah (10/5): A real gem if you want a quiet beach location - It was spacious, comfortable and quiet. The apartment had everything you could want for a short stay. Walking tracks and easy access to public transport meant no car required. Linda was a fabulous host - warm, helpful and kind.
• Steven (9/5): - I had a fantastic time at Clifton Sands,beautifully beach away from more noisy beach front areas.Well equipped one bedroom apartment and comfortable bed.Highlight was seeing some dolphins on an early morning walk down on the beach.
• Maxene (10/5): Our stay was great! Such a lovely host! - The property was very clean, comfortable and had everything we needed 😍 Nothing to dislike!
• Taylor (10/5): Thanks Linda. We'll be back. - Roomy and comfortable in quiet location close to beach. Pleasant 3k walk to Palm Cove. Leaving.
• Ken (10/5): Very pleasant hosts and no noise, would stay again and good price. - Well maintained. Good size and location.
• Lesley (8/5): Very good - Nice and handy to the beach. Very relaxed atmosphere with lots of books available to read. Unit, though a bit dated, had everything you need with full kitchen
• Oscar (9/5): Superb -
• Julie (10/5): Exceptional - Location - just a stroll to the beach. The gardens and quiet spaces are tranquil and so well maintained. The area is quiet with proximity to a shopping centre and a great place to return to after days exploring different attractions. The onsite manager, Linda, is lovely and isn't intrusive. There's a great library of books and DVDs plus games. A beautiful BBQ area with a water feature. Our room was on the top level - modern and clean, with water glimpses. Stays over 7days also receive a room service with new linen and a clean. The smell in the front loader washing machine wasn't pleasant. Possibly a build up over time from the door being closed and no air ventilation in the bathroom. We did what we could to address the issue - drum cycle, hot wash without clothes and rinse with vinegar but couldn't fully erase the smell.
• Adam (7/5): Good - Location and stuff Apartments need refreshment
• Ilija (10/5): Exceptional -
• Stephen (10/5): Exceptional -
• Alexandra (8/5): Very good -
• Graham (8/5): Very good -
• Maxwell (9/5): Value for money self contained accommodation 5 minutes from beach - Simple but very clean and comfortable, self contained unit type accommodation. Very good value for money with a restaurant across the road and the beach just 5 minute walk from the unit. The unit was ground floor with easy access which would suit those with mobility issues or a wheelchair. The bottom bed sheet was a little small and kept coming out from base of bed. More light is needed near/in the shower alcove. Really small things really. Google maps kept directing me to the top of the road to other accommodation.
• Anne. (9/5): Superb -
• Kylie (7/5): Good -
• Suzi (8/5): Would stay there again. Met a lovely lady with local knowledge. - Perfect size for a couple, very spacious and clean. Quiet location and short walks to the beach. We were on the first floor. The bed was very very hard. Don’t know about the other apartments. There is no coffee shops or van in the area. Internet wasn’t good.
• Lyn (5/5): Very average - The stair access to dangerous
• Michelle (7/5): Good -
• Bongiorno (10/5): Exceptional - Very clean and comfortable. Close to the beach. Very friendly manager.

• Oliver-arnold (7/5): Oldy but goody - Great location. Value for money. Friendly reception lady. There was water on our bedroom floor leaking from the bathroom.
• Sarah (8/5): Very good -
• Suzanne (10/5): Exceptional -
• Derrian (8/5): Clean and comfortable for the price - Great location and very comfortable Shower head was terrible and bathroom dated
• Kirsten (8/5): Very good -
• John (8/5): We liked staying there overall , Linda was lovely - The apartment had everything we needed for our stay , it was clean and comfortable For me I would have preferred a ground floor apartment because of the stairs
• Lynette (10/5): Exceptional -
• Eleonora (10/5): Very convenient! - We had a nice stay here! Great location, very quiet area, 15 minutes walk distance to the Clifton village supermarket! The host Linda was very helpful and always available! Highly recommended!
• Ashish (8/5): Good, comfortable stay in furnished apartment - Nice and comfortable apartment in a quiet location near the beach. Got locked out of the unit one evening because the keys didn't work and the reception had to get a locksmith in to fix.
• Ronald (6/5): Pleasant -
• Chelsea (10/5): Perfect stay - highly recommend - Perfect little spot. Loved walking down the beachfront and through little bush walk to Palm Cove each morning to get a coffee (about 1hour walk but lovely, especially in the morning at sunrise or nighfall). Great location around the corner from the beach, restaurant, and tennis court next door. On main bus route (daily pass for Zone 5 is $9.60AUD) so you can easily access the local Coles supermarket and shopping centre, cafes, restaurants and swimming spots down at Palm Cove and across to the next bay at Trinity Beach (would recomend Trinity Beach spot as it is semi shaded in the afternoon). Parking on-site or free street parking all around. The apartment was spacious, clean, comfortable with a nice bed, crisp white linen and towels, and well stocked full kitchen - has everything you need. Would recommend the bottom floor so you can extend out onto the back paint and garden. Staff lovely, no fuss and let you get on with things. When I visited, it was stinger season (jellyfish, from November-April) so there were no netted safe ocean swimming spots near by. There is one 15min walk north up the bay, but it is only open on weekends. Need to travel to the lifeguarded netted spots at Palm Cove or Trinity Beach to swim. Can easily access if you have a car (plentiful free parking in both spots) or via bus. Can also walk to Palm Cove, but would not recommend in mid-day heat as it is a 1 hour walk - only in early morning or night when it is cooler.
• Gianluca (10/5): Exceptional - The place was immaculate and spotless. It is conveniently located close to the beach. Linda, the host, has been incredibly kind and helpful. She helped me to organize few activities as there was a disruption of the usual options as a result of the cyclone. I felt like at home as her knowledge of Italian is stunning.
• Sasha (7/5): Old fashioned, small, comfortable apartment - It was a very nicely decorated apartment that had a homey feel. Apartment was spotlessly clean. Lovely lady by the name of Linda is the manager. The aircon in the bedroom did not blow cold air. I was disappointed because I had specifically booked accommodation because my mum's spare bedroom did not have aircon and I was dying in the heat. Luckily, the aircon in the living room worked well. I kept the bedroom door open and blasted the fan and I was able to get cool enough. Air con filters were also desperately in need of a clean. Very thick with dust etc.
• Vivienne (9/5): Great place for a week. - Close to the beach and public transport.
• Stuart (10/5): Everything you wished for - Exceptional and Linda the host was amazing if you wish to stay anywhere please stay there All good
• Claudia (10/5): The perfect place to stay. - Clifton Holiday Units is a perfect place to stay, It is super clean with all the facilities including, even a washing and drying machine :) in front, there is a restaurant bar if you want to have lunch or dinner. Linda who is the person in charge is a super beautiful and kind person.
• Lynette (9/5): Superb -
• Lea (8/5): Would definitely stay again. Linda was awesome and very accomodating with any issues we had. While older, we had eve - The location was great for us. It was quiet but within walking distance to Palm Cove if we wanted. Everything we needed, was within walking distance. The only thing I would say, is the bathroom Floors were not very clean and hope the cleaners are not pulling the wool over the lovely land Lords eyes as she was absolutely wonderful.
• Michèle (10/5): Perfect. And thank you. - My host was very friendly and helping. The appartment is very nice, the view is nice, not even too much noise because of the works near by. Perfect. And thank you.
• David (9/5): Superb -
• Kristen (10/5): We loved our stay at Clifton Sands. Wish we could have stayed longer. - Great little unit with everything you need in a perfect location. We loved our stay at Clifton Sands. Wish we could have stayed longer. Perfect spot next to the beach with a fabulous restaurant across the road. Easy walk to Palm Beach.
• Lachlan (10/5): A nice stay in the northern beaches of Cairns 😎 would stay again. - The location- comfortable homely feel- had all the necessities for your stay. Friendly management. Nothing
• Matt (6/5): Basic, near the beach - Basic but comfortable. Very near the beach. Plenty of parking. Exceptionally clean. We were warned about it, so fair play, but in September 2023 there was construction work next door. Also no wifi.
• Deborah (6/5): Pleasant - The lady was a friendly, good location overall. No fault of owner but the workers across road it was quite noisy from. About 630 am as we were warned about, and the birds made a heck of a noise all threw night .I didn't get a lot of sleep overall . The draws in the bathroom were not very clean. We were there five nights top up of towels, coffee pods, and toilet paper would have been nice.
• Sabina (7/5): A great base for exploring the amazing region of FNQ! - Great location and it was clean and tidy. Value for money for an original holiday complex. Walking distance to palm cove and the translink bus stop is nearby. Nothing.. it was exactly as described
• Charles (9/5): Superb -
• Simon (10/5): Quiet flat in Cairns - An appartement located in a quiet neighborhood. Just 25 min from Cairns There's everything you need there : kitchen kits, bathroom equipment The beach is only 3 mins walking Nothing

• Lulufow (10/5): Would stay again! - I liked everything about the apartment. It has kind of a dutch vibe.. its very comfy. The location is great, I recommend to rent a car to see Daintree and the south. You find a lot of flyers for daytrips you can also ask Linda for any recommendations. She suggestet Seastar for a snorkel trip to the reef, and it was the best divingtrip i had. :)
• Michael (8/5): Very good -
• Joanne (5/5): Passable - The unit was well equipped. Linda the manager was very good. A big construction site right in front of the unit's views gone noise from 7.30 am
• Keith (8/5): Very good - Well set up, clean and comfortable. One block back from the beach. Ground floor, so easy access with luggage. Older building which is reflected in the reasonable price. Needs new curtains.
• Stefan (7/5): Don't think we would go back. Wifi was a big issue. - The fact that it was on the ground, no steps to worry about. Great restaurant across the street. Good public transport and close to shopping centre. No wifi in rooms had to go to the BBQ area to use. Curtains in lounge area need replacing/rehanging have holes in them.
• Christian (10/5): Very good value for money - We had an excellent experience staying at Clifton Sands Holiday Units and will be back. This applies right from the arrival when we got the key to the apartment at the reception. Here sits Linda, who is very helpful in answering all sorts of questions and is service-minded. The apartment is the right size, with a super kitchen and a nice balcony. The apartment is close to the beach, shopping facilities, cafes, and restaurants. N/A
