We arrived at the end of may for our 10 day holiday, We decided to grab a taxi at the airport as we discoverd that it was only 10-12 dollars although we knew that a transfer was available free of charge if required. The taxi driver found Skinny Dips with no issues and was very polite and helpful, by this... more

As a gay man, I would love to give this place a raving review. But I feel even more compelled to inform my gay brothers as to what this place is really like so that they have a realistic picture before booking a potentially costly trip in time and money. Frankly, this place has very little going on. With a... more

This is a gem for gay travellers in Cairns. The place looks as though it's just been done up. All the rooms overlook the pool in the centre. My room was evidently one of the smaller ones but it was perfect and very clean - the shower was excellent as was the air con. I had dinner in the restaurant... more

Skinny Dips is a small 20-room hotel built on two levels, located two blocks off the main road through Cairns (Capt Cook Hwy), 3km outside of the town center and 5km from the airport. The website mentions complimentary airport pickup, which is a ride in the manager’s personal vehicle as long as he is not otherwise occupied. If he cannot... more

We arrived at the property at around 8PM. The guy who checked us in was very nice during check in and during this time informed us that the jacuzzi wasn't working, but that they would have it fixed before we left (it was not fixed while we were there though). We told them that we wanted to do some excursions... more

Stayed here 5 days in May. Eventhough it was very quiet after cyclone season, I totally enjoyed my stay here. The staff was very friendly and the rooms were clean. Ok, an endangered frog-species welcomed me in my bathroom, but that's just a nice thing when you're staying in a green area. The gym isn't worth mentioning, but if you're... more

We have just returned from a week at Skinny Dips Resort in Cairns. The resort is hosted by a combination of staff and owners who provide a warm and friendly service. We felt so comfortable and relaxed there, that we found it hard to drag ourselves away from the relaxed poolside atmosphere and we loved the great food in the... more

My partner and I were having a wonderful time in Australia. We spent three wonderful days in Melbourne, and then headed up to Cairns for three days. We thought we'd try staying at an all-male gay resort while in Australia because we felt it would be a fun experience, and we may get the opportunity to meet other gay travellers... more

Skinny dips gets an A for effort. The new owners are working very hard, and its paying off. We were there for Mardi Gras recovery week package, and we had a superb time. Excellent food, a nice mix of activities (all gay reef tour was amazing), and some fun parties all added up to a refreshing gay getaway. Cairns is... more
