Bay Village Tropical Retreat & Apartments

$ | 227 Lake St., Cairns, QLD, 4870, Australia

The sociable public areas at this family-friendly complex include a lovely lagoon pool, a guest laundry, and the terrific Bayleaf Balinese Restaurant & Bar. The main complex offers simple but spacious double, family, and studio rooms, some with balconies. The second-floor rooms are quieter, if you don't mind lugging your bags upstairs. Across the road are two- and three-bedroom apartments that are slightly more modern and larger and have their own, more private pool, internal laundries, and fully equipped kitchens.

  • Clean, generously sized rooms
  • A lovely central courtyard with pool, surrounded by tropical gardens

Cons

  • Pool area and ground-floor rooms can be noisy
  • Standard rooms lack ambient lighting and all but simple amenities
