    The beautiful breeze was lovely whenever I sat on a comfortable seat on the grass near the beach... We thought the views were amazing in every way we turned on the walkway across the road from the Agincourt Beachfont...We will be returning. It will most likely be in the winter though, as humidity is very high in the summer for us, as a couple from the central coast, in N.S.W. Thank you! It is close enough for a drive to Cairns, Port Douglas and other beautiful spots.

    Clifton Beach is a quiet lovely beach with an excellent shady path to allow walking amongst the trees. Unfortunately there was only one restaurant/cafe but given the proximity to Palm Cove and Trinity beach this was not a drawback.

    Pretty quiet, my kind of place, yet close to everything I need, restaurants, the Italian is great,Trinity Beach Sports Club, supermarket. The beach is just down the road. Unfortunately some knob is building a multi story apartment block, not required in this quiet backwater and too many already. Palm Cove is for the rage all night spew all day set.

    The accommodation management company responded quickly to our request and were very professional. The apartment was spacious and comfortable although a little dated. The shower was small and the bathroom could be updated. It was located in a quiet area on the beach which was lovely. There weren’t many cafes around and a bit of a walk to the supermarket. A car would be recommended.

    Clifton Beach is a lovely quiet suburb on the beach about 20mins drive from Cairns. Very relaxing. There was one local restaurant near the beach which was very good. A local shopping centre with some restaurants with take-away options and a supermarket for shopping is located in Clifton Beach on the highway too. Palm Cove with more restaurants is located 3km away and can you easily walk there along the bicycle path. There is a local bus service which goes from Palm Cove to Clifton Beach and then to Cairns. A car however is really a lot more convenient to travel to Cairns and see the sites.

    Maz and Alan of South Pacific Bed and breakfast were wonderful hosts , accommodating, friendly warm and extremely helpful. They made our stay a complete delight on all fronts . Their advice on food , places to visit was so accurate. Alan's frog conservation programme was fascinating interesting and educational . The breakfast was wonderful with Maz taking so much trouble to source the right food and fruit.

    The property is opposite to the Clifton beach and offers beautiful views of the same. We had opted for the garden/pool view and that was beautiful as well. It was very peaceful and we enjoyed lounging in the balcony. The kitchen was well stocked with essentials and had the full range of utensils for cooking. The apartment was spacious. Though the bedroom didn't have an AC, the AC in the hall is powerful enough to cool the bedroom as well. The TV in the bed room was perfect to catch up on late night TV & morning news

    The villa was wonderful! We were surprised how much better it looked in real than on the pictures. The highlight was for us the balcony with this view. Everywhere are this beautiful palm trees. We were staying there for three nights and we loved it. Enough space, all what you need in the kitchen/bathroom and cute little details everywhere! Palm cove is a short 20min walk so the location is perfect. We would recommend the villa for couples or small families. Thanks for this amazing stay.

    Great stay at the sea turtle. The property was super clean, newly renovated and nicely decorated. The bed was so comfortable that I checked the brand because I’d like to purchase for my home. Location is 2 minute walk from the beach and there is a grocery store 2 minute away. It was a good base to explore Cairns.

    The location is excellent, just a 10-15 minute stroll to Coles at Clifton Village and another 10-15 minute walk along the boardwalk to the cafes and restaurants at Palm Cove. Additionally, the host generously provided us with delicious complimentary fruits, bread and snacks, enhancing our stay even further.

    Great location, across the road from the beach. Our own garage. Two bedroom, 2 bathroom unit. The best part was the little things - glad wrap in the drawer, oil, salt and pepper. All the things you don't want to buy on your holiday.

    Perfect location, close to the quiet Clifton Beach & close enough to Cairns to nip in for activities with the kids. The pool was perfect for the toddler & the older kids. So many toys for the kids to play with!

    The manager Peter was very accommodating. The access to beach and Palm Cove was easy and with access to bikes and scooters, the children found the walk much more fun. We will definitely stay here again.
