Family-friendly vacation rentals in Kuranda

Platypus Retreat is everything it says and more. Secluded, romantic, beautiful. We picked up Groceries before we arrived, but found out when we got there that we didn’t need as much as we thought. Condiments, tomato sauce, salad dressing, butter, all sorts of spices were all there. While we had a bit of trouble using the oven, it was no problem- we used the bbq instead. We arrived to music playing softly and homemade bread. Just wow. And there was complimentary milk as well. Oh- and as true Americans, we fully appreciated the ice machine. The pool was delightful, albeit slightly chilly for us. We could have asked Gemma to adjust, but it was our last night and we just relaxed in the spa instead- as the rain fell and the local animal life were serenaded us. Couldn’t have asked for a more relaxing way to end our whirlwind trip to AU.

Great spot for us and our 2 kids. Very spacious and clean. The pool is fabulous and you can walk to everything. Highly recommend.

Awesome location and great communication with the couple of little hiccups we had. Very clean and well set out with everything you need.

Aaron is a great host. Lovely relaxing and safe environment, comfortable bed & all ammenities we required. Would recommend to others

Beautiful scenery, walkable area, all the comforts of home.

Kay was very helpful - she picked us up from the airport and took time to show us around the apartment. The apartment was very comfortable and spotlessly clean. The location is excellent, handy for everything you need. There is a tour desk downstairs where you can book your activities. Overall, highly recommended.

Great owners. Very accommodating. The fridge was stocked with items such as milk and bread. A lovely place!

Amazing accommodation! It's boutique and heritage, please Google it. Wikipedia has all story. Piece of Italy and Spain. I had unit 4 with balcony, lovely view to the ocean. Same family run their restaurant, highly recommend. I meet hosts another day, lovely people. I definitely would choose to stay here again.

Great central location, exactly as described. Fab was a great host who was always quick to respond.

We had a wonderful few days at Florian and Kelli’s home.I was on my own during the day and felt perfectly safe in the house and locality, which is a major plus for an Irish old lady in my mid 70s! Florian was very kind allowing us more flexible times for arrival and departure, so many thanks.

Absolutely loved our stay here! The house is gorgeous and only a few blocks from the beach! Everything was just as described with no difficulties at all. The ice machine was a nice touch and the open windows and AC (when needed) worked perfectly! We did have a few ants, but that was due to us leaving food out on the counter so would just caution against that. Our family went snorkeling at the reef and got to visit lots of the rainforest nearby. Neighborhood was fairly quiet and even got to visit the local Sunday market in Palm Cove. Would definitely stay again!

Love the lay back feel of Clifton Beach and the house felt homely and was full of character. Beds were comfortable and it had everything you needed. Would book it again

Our stay at Carla’s place was perfect for our short visit to the Cairns northern beaches area. The view from the apartment was breathtaking. Everything was comfortable and convenient. Carla was a friendly and helpful host.

Had a wonderful 3 nights at Sundream. Beautiful, clean and stylish home with peaceful, private surroundings and the location being not far from the town which gave us the opportunity to explore the area and Atherton Tablelands while not being far from Cairns. Roxanne & Jesse were fantastic hosts who made our stay even more wonderful.

Marita was very accommodating and responsive to any inquiry. Overall, great stay!

Great location to the main strip in palm cove while maintaining privacy just a short walk away. Easy location to get picked up for excursions and using public transportation. Local restaurants were great and the Palm Cove New Years events were spectacular!

Absolutely wonderful week stay at Denis and Annes property. Everything was exactly as described. Clean, very comfortable and the facilities were excellent. Plenty of kitchen equipment, full washing facilities and the bathrooms were large. The beds were so comfortable! I highly recommend and we will definitely be back. On Palm Cove itself, the fishing was superb and a good variety of species to chase. The swim net was a area we used daily. Plenty of restaurants all within walking distance. I am so impressed with everything we have come across this week. Thank you to Denis and Anne for such a wonderful accommodation and allowing us to stay!

Scott & Kris’s communications was great & clear. The place was in a great location.. walking distance to everything. Would definitely stay there again. Thanks for the stay, J & M

Dave was an amazing host and his place was perfect for our young family. muddy's playground was a short walk and the kids loved it. Would happily stay here again. thanks Dave.

The view from Kim’s place and being able to hear the waves were highlights for us. My favorite part of the day was watching the sun rise over the ocean from the balcony. It’s breathtaking! The apartment was spacious and comfortable for our family of four. We had everything that we needed. The location is perfect for walking to dinner, shops and the beach. Trinity Beach has a nice relaxed atmosphere. We would highly recommend Kim’s place!

Very central location and suited our needs perfectly. We loved the security of having a car park undercover & locked up. We also enjoyed the large balcony. Any problems were solved very quickly & Shirley was a delight to deal with. On arrival in a new town & with a hire car the instructions for finding the key wasn’t very clear. After driving around the block because we missed it, we stumbled upon it at the car park entrance. All other instructions were spot on & clear. Great place to stay.

Nice house. Matches the exact description. Peaceful. Worth the money. Close to city and other amenities. Close to airport. I have enjoyed the stay.

Would definitely stay here again…great pool…walking distance to restaurants & cafes via the back gate…lovely to walk along Trinity Beach.

Great location, beautiful house!
