Cairns Colonial Club Resort
Overall amazing spot, very clean, very friendly helpful staff, delicious food and great range of drinks and cocktails Maybe a cheap shuttle bus to and from the resort for those who don't have cars. Maybe incorporate in the price or at a reasonable price. One stop into town, no other drop off point.uber ...
