Reviews for Cairns Colonial Club Resort

As a local family juggling stressful jobs and a busy schedule, we were looking for a relaxing escape close to home—and Cairns Colonial Club Resort delivered beyond our expectations. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed and cared for, making it the perfect spot to unwind and spend quality time together. The room was clean and renovated, modern, and incredibly comfortable—exactly what we needed for a peaceful night’s rest. The food was outstanding, with every dish tasting fresh and thoughtfully prepared. Special mention to Matthew, the operations manager, exceptional customer service. He greeted every guest with genuine warmth and went above and beyond to ensure everyone, including us, was having a great time. It’s clear he takes pride in creating a friendly and welcoming atmosphere. Our son had a blast too, which made the experience even more special for us as parents. We’re so lucky to have a place like this right in our community. If you’re a local family looking for an stress-free getaway, we highly recommend Cairns Colonial Club Resort —it’s a gem we’ll definitely be returning to! Big Thank you! Fabio and Family

We stayed here either side of travelling elsewhere. We were very impressed at how family friendly it was and how clean everything was. We felt that having an air-conditioned room for after you've checked out, with a shower in case you still want to use the pools was definitely going the extra mile! All staff were very helpful and extremely welcoming. We had a room across from the bar/resteraunt, we expected to be kept awake with noise the noise in the evening, but we weren't at all.

The Colonial Club Resort in Cairns is a perfect getaway for families, couples, and anyone looking to relax in a tropical oasis. Set among lush gardens, the resort has a laid-back yet luxurious vibe that makes you feel instantly at ease. One of the standout features is the incredible pool area. It’s spacious, beautifully designed, and perfect for cooling off in the tropical heat. Whether you're lounging by the lagoon-style pool, splashing around with the kids, or swimming a few laps, the pool offers something for everyone. The cascading waterfalls and surrounding greenery make it feel like a tropical paradise. For families, the resort goes above and beyond by offering the option to book kids' pool parties! Imagine your little ones having the time of their lives, playing in the pool with friends, all in a safe and fun environment. It's a fantastic option for birthdays or special occasions, with everything you need for a stress-free, memorable celebration. Overall, Colonial Club Resort is more than just a place to stay—it's an experience. The combination of beautiful surroundings, excellent facilities, and family-friendly amenities makes it a top choice for anyone visiting Cairns.

I recently stayed at the Colonial Club Resort in Cairns and enjoyed the overall experience. The resort has a lovely atmosphere, and the amenities are excellent. However, I would appreciate it if the room service could be improved. There were a few occasions where the service fell short of expectations. Enhancing this aspect would definitely elevate the guest experience. Despite this, I had a pleasant stay and would consider returning in the future.

Great experience, room was clean, they even set up a portable cot for us ready to go when we got to the room. Fantastic for families. It's close to the city if your planning to go in to the city. We booked a superior room. It's great that there is food and beverages on site. Breakfast, lunch and dinner sorted. Go cart and mini golf on site. Playground for the kids. Pools are great. Very reasonably priced for families. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will be staying again.
