Waterfront holiday rentals in Clifton Beach

This was a gorgeous condo in an extremely great location. Close to everything! The deck was lovely with an amazing view.

Very lovely host, responsive and clear communications. The unit itself was fabulous. Gorgeous views and super convenient location with great restaurant options underneath. Thank you, Georgina!!

Wow, wow, wow. One of the very best apartments we have ever stayed at. Spacious, spotlessly clean, great location, great host. We were four adults staying for four nights. Loads of room and storage space, the amenities all worked brilliantly including the air conditioning which is a must in humid Cairns. Both ceiling fans and air conditioners which cooled the place down in no time and made sleeping easy. The apartment has a huge balcony to enjoy and is situated less than 10 minutes walk along the sea esplanade from all the restaurants, bars, shops entertainment you could wish for. Liz was a great host and we would all thoroughly recommend staying here.

The place is exactly described on Airbnb. Details are looked after. Prompt response from host with detailed instructions. I used the host’s discount on tour. The apartment and utility as well as location are just perfect. Shops, restaurants the beach are within walkable access. The place is very clean with welcome sound on TV and fans on to make you feel very welcome. I stayed 5 nights in September 2024. Wanted to extend the stay as I really love it. And yes highly recommend and I will absolutely want to come back. :) Paige

Incredible accommodation. Wake up to a stunning view. Perfect service. Just come with your luggage. Restaurants, bars, and just a few steps from the esplanade, a beautiful walk by the harbor. Woolworths is less than 3-4 minutes away for your groceries. The location is quiet, clean, and has everything you need without a car. Everything is within walking distance. I would gladly stay longer. The host, Shane, is friendly with great communication if you have any questions. I highly recommend this accommodation.

We had a wonderful stay at Cheryl's Airbnb! Cheryl was absolutely lovely - friendly, responsive, and made sure everything was perfect. The apartment was spotless, tidy and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay, even a coffee machine. I especially appreciated the strong security features, which made us feel safe and at ease. Highly recommend!!

This is our 3rd experience with Abode at the Beach Club. Our experience was unforgettable. We can't wait to do it again next year. Thank you for opening your holiday apartment for our family.

My experience in this apartment was absolutely wonderful! Just a few steps away from the pool, it couldn't be more perfectly located. The overall ambience of the property is beautiful. With so many fantastic restaurants nearby and a short walk to the beach, everything you need is within reach. Dimitri, the host, was incredibly responsive and truly exceptional.

Awesome place to stay where the hosts have thought of everything. Location is fantastic with beautiful sunrises over the ocean. The local coffee shop Mayhem at Machans is a must for coffee and breakfast etc, and the local Taven has great meals, entertainment and friendly service. If you like to fish you can throw a line out the front of the house! Enjoy!

The house is gorgeous! We loved the sunrises from the stunning bedroom, breakfasts out on the deck, and the quirky and carefully curated decor (especially the book collection)! The house is centrally located to all tourist attractions - an easy drive into Cairns for restaurants, the art gallery, the lagoon pool, etc., and a very short drive to the swimming beach at Holloways, as well as being en route to Palm Cove, Port Douglas, etc. Be sure to check out Crystal Cascades (my fave) and Hartley's Croc Adventure Park (hubbie and the kids' fave 😂). O'Shea's Restaurant for meals and Mayhem's for our morning coffees were lovely and only a short walk away. Just don't forget your mozzie repellant! We had a fun and fabulous week in Machans Beach. Thank you for sharing your house, Kimmi. It made our long-awaited family holiday so special! Recommend without hesitation! P.s. Thanks, too, for the special, thoughtful treats you left in the fridge!

What can I say other than it was a fantastic property! Our family of four and my brother visited for a surprise 70th birthday for our dad. Beautifully presented as described on the app (the pool was amazing with a huge outdoor entertaining area and newly landscaped), perfectly located in a quiet cul-de-sac between my parents flat, local beaches & restaurants; 20 mins from the CBD and 30 mins for Port Douglas. The house was spotless and the kitchen had everything you could possibly need. Nadia was a breeze to deal with and highly responsive to questions. Could not rate or recommend this property and host high enough! Thankyou for allowing us to stay in your home!

We just finished up an amazing 1.5 weeks at Renee's beautiful place. We're a family of 4 (2 teenagers, 2 adults) and this house was perfect! We had enough room to spread out but also great common areas to share meals, conversation and games. The kitchen had everything we needed for cooking - dishes, many different appliances, pots/pans as well as basic staples like olive oil. The outdoor spaces were lovely; the landscaping is beautiful and the large deck became our favorite place to hang out and watch the river, butterflies and birds. The layout was great for us - two of the bedrooms are connected to the main house via the deck so it gave everyone their own space. We had a chance to go swimming in the river which our kids loved. We arrived to Cairns very early & Renee was gracious enough to allow us to check in early which we appreciated after 28hrs of travel! We would definitely stay here again - we were sorry to leave!

What a place! The host were absolutely amazing and you can’t beat the view

Loved the quiet beach neighborhood and the cute restaurant ‘strait on the beach’ (very delicious and walkable). Close to a farmers market to purchase groceries, great pool, and very awesome back deck with beach views!

A beautiful home for our family celebration get together! Clean, so convenient having bathrooms in every adults room available, all beautifully appointed. The lights and fans take a bit of figuring out and the tiles on downstairs patio are slippery when wet. Walking paths along foreshore are handy and views are great! Other than that, this is a fantastic location for a multiple family getaway together!

House was great. Neighborhood very quiet , we travelled during quiet season so several of the restaurants were not open. The pathway outside the backyard was super convenient, backyard was the best part. Highly recommend!

We had a great stay at Harbour Lights and Cairns. The Appartment is well equipped and is in a fabulous location next to the Wharf/harbour and easy walking to restaurants, supermarkets and in fact anything you may want. This is a garden view Appartment and was very quiet if you want peace! Thomas was prompt to respond to us and very helpful. We would for sure stay here again.

The location of the apartment and the views are great. The place is just as described & very comfortable. Thomas' responses & communication were always very prompt & helpful. I would highly recommend his place to anyone coming to Cairns.

A sprawling home with great views. Kitchen was fabulous. The bedrooms and bathrooms were top notch. The patio area had comfortable seating. Even though the place is a part of a small group of apartments, it felt totally private. Covered car park was a bonus. Hosts are super responsive and helpful. One reaches the place through two flights of narrow stairs. It may be difficult to carry large luggage or if you have mobility issues. Otherwise this is a dream vacation home

I loved staying at this apartment. It was absolutely perfect for what I needed, big kitchen, living and dining area which was great as I was here for a longer time period. The apartment is right on the esplanade, walkable to the city centre and close to lots of restaurants and cafes. Would highly recommend this apartment! Marc was also really responsive and friendly whenever I contacted him.

Carmen’s place was lovely and clean, open and relaxing. It was more than big enough to fit 3 adults and 2 teenage children. The location is right on the beach and close to many restaurants, very easy walk. Was great to have 2 bathrooms upstairs. Beds were very comfortable and lots of spare towels, even beach towels as well which come in very handy. Carmen was very friendly and kept in contact during our stay. Clear instructions were given and response time was very quick. Didn’t have any problems at all. Many thanks Carmen, would definitely recommend!

We traveled to Cairns for a family vacation! Christine’s place was top notch in terms of location and surroundings with very happening cafes & restaurants just around the corner. Moreover, we spent 2 days just enjoying the property with great ocean views and coffee ! Pool & tennis lawn added more entertainment! This relaxed city & the property has given our family a core travel memory! Highly recommend this property a great family vacation living experience !

Paul's unit is in a perfect location. We canceled our car rental because everything is very walkable. Great restaurants, markets, shopping, and activities in the area. The balcony has a beautiful view of the esplanade. Loved hanging out at dusk watching the fruit bats. We will stay here again if we return to Cairns for a holiday! Recommend Passions of Paradise for snorkel/dive coral reef. Great staff and a wonderful boat! Thanks, Paul!

Great w-shaped pool, sunshine is cozy in the bedroom in the afternoon, as if the time is still
