"Perfect location and on a beautiful beach! Not too far from Cairns but far enough away to avoid the traffic and crowds. You can hear the surf at night and wake up to amazing sunrises."

Sea Change Beachfront Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely enjoyed our stay. Our apartment was huge and had everything we needed for the week. We thoroughly enjoyed the pool and being close to the pool. We would definitely stay here again. I have one comment. Not related to the accommodation but more for Expedia. They listed our room but didn’t specify that you need to recommend a type of room you want even though when we booked it was pictures on a higher floor with ocean views but we put on ground level next to the pool area. Again, not a fault of the seachange but Expedia. They need to correct this for future."
