"Shampoo/conditioner (combined) and body wash included, which was nice. Property was gorgeous and super clean. Great location. Staff are on-site 24/7! Muddy’s across the street was fantastic, and we saw numerous flying foxes feasting on fruits on the street outside! We loved staying here in the quieter part of Cairns. (:"
