Thoughts from kids who love wildlife

There was a wallaby that liked to spend rainy days on our porch. We named her peekaboo. The apartment was great and the wildlife added to the atmosphere. We saw lots of wallabies, lots of birds, and one snake all on the grounds. On our last day we saw a curlew protecting its nest.

8/10 Very good

Disappointed that there was no recycling at the property - we’re in 2022… come on.
Michelle, 4-night trip

4/10 Fair

Very disappointed with our unit. It was advertised as a luxury unit but was definitely not luxury. The unit was dirty, had to buy cleaning products to clean the kitchen. All cutlery and crockery had to be put through the dishwasher and then scrubbed to get them clean. Mould in bathroom and vanity cupboard door was hanging off and chipped. Chairs from outdoor setting some of the most uncomfortable we've ever sat on even with cushions. Bedside and wardrobe drawers were dirty and had hair in them that we had to clean out. Shower over bath very dangerous to step in and out of. No grab handle, had to use taps and shower screen to steady ourselves. Had to buy a bath mat as bath was slippery. We shouldn't have to clean our holiday unit before we can enjoy our holiday. Little or no noise dampener between floors, could hear everything from very noisy upstairs neighbours. I could go on but probably not enough room.

Have come back twice to stay at this gorgeous resort. The wildlife the pool the tropical feel is so incredible. It’s not over the top which lets you enjoy the warmth of your surrounds and experience. It’s family friendly and close to cairns and port Douglas . I will be returning here for many yrs to come . The family units are spacious and comfortable.

Such a nice place

Fantastic place and pool. Appreciated the one night as port Douglas had issues. Only feedback is master ac seemed weak. No great coffee machine and bedding needs a comforter but excellent
Diann, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

A pleasant place to stay in paradise

Great position, great pool, fans and aircon, washing machine and dryer in apartment. Friendly , efficient front office and after hours key pick up safe with clear instructions. Covered parking bays. Can get noisy with pool central to all apartments. Stove top needed cleaning but otherwise a very pleasant stay for 2 nights.

I love the lap pool. and the wallabies! Our second visit and we'll be back.

Well presented apartment with laundry facilities and fully equipped kitchen, pool, short walk to ocean and restaurants. We stayed after hiking, so made good use of the space to unpack, wash and sort gear.
Megan, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Spacious apartment with good facilities. Wasn't the cleaniest on arrival but nothing a quick sweep didn't fix. Resort amenities were a winner - games room a bit of fun and pools were great!

This property looks exactly like photos provided, clean and everything you need is there! 10/10! Well done!
Miriam, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Awesome apartment with just about everything you could need, the wifi is not great in the apartment but that didn't really affect us. The location is awesome and the lagoon pool is a dream. Reception were very helpful on the phone and able to let us have our room early which was amazing. Reception wasn't open often but again not a problem for us. Only criticism is it would have been good to have some tea towels and over gloves in the apartment. Lovely place, in a lovely spot with an amazing pool, will be back!
SHELLEY, 7-night trip

Great small resort complex. Clean, well equipped apartment. Lovely pools and sauna. Great location for all Cairns and area has to offer with beaches you do 't get in Cairns!

Michelle, 4-night trip

Comfortable apartment

Good sized apartment that was clean and well presented. The wallabies in the garden were a nice bonus. My only real gripe would be it would have been nice to have some kitchen basics (cooking oil, salt etc) at the property.

TEWISH, 6-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Stayed at beautiful Marlin Cove for 5 nights over the new year, with 2 Adults and 2 Children the room was beautiful, modern and the pool(s) were amazing. Walked straight out to the lagoon style pool from our room. Games room with table tennis, soccer and air hockey which the kids loved! Stephanie was absolutely amazing and so friendly, she made our first time to Cains a memorable one 😊 Thankyou. Only a 5 minute walk to restaurants and there is a little grocery store around the corner! Highly recommended staying here and if we come back to Cairns we will definitely be staying here.
