The Galvin's B&B is an excellent place for rest and relaxation after a long trip and exhausting tours! I chose this place for its reasonable price and proximity to the City center. With its classic Queensland architecture, it has a homey feel with its rooms opening to a nice veranda and to a cozy living room facing the pool. The... More

We had the amazing good fortune to stay at Galvin's for 5 nights during our recent 3 week trip to Australia. Our time in this delightful, magical B&B was, without a doubt the best part of our trip. Beautifully appointed, wonderful beds, quiet, peaceful, spectacular pool, perfect breakfasts and AMAZING hosts! While there is much to see in Cairns, we... More

Stay at Galvin edge was the best part of our Trip to Australia. We stayed at Cairns for a week.The place is very beautiful and extremely well managed. The hosts, Jesse and Julie, went out of their way to make us comfortable. The house is located in a very peaceful and enchanting place.

Step outside to the patio and in front of us was the pool with lush plantings all around. So relaxing after a day of... More

This is a beautiful apartment in a lovely house in a peaceful, leafy suburb of Cairns. Good local facilities, close to the airport and an easy drive into town or the north Cairns... More

I stayed here for three nights, in September 2011, and found it a very relaxing, convenient place to stay. Since my flight from the States did not arrive until 11:20 PM, and I then had to pick up my luggage and also my rental car, I was worried about arriving for the first time after midnight. That was no problem;... More

This is an apartment, lots of space. Your own swimming pool in a tropical garden. Friendly host, who offers to drive you into town when she has the chance (takes 10 minutes. Great place and at a price of $125 for stays of 5 days or more, it's a good deal.

We stayed here for a few nights in March / April, 2011. We enjoyed our stay here. The hosts, Julie and Jesse, were very congenial and very helpful. We enjoyed the pool, which is refreshing after a day's activities. We had very wholesome breakfasts - tropical fruits, cereals, yogurt and cheese. Even though the place has two bedrooms, one queen...
