Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
If you have submitted a review for a holiday rental property, we may also ask that you provide us with proof of your stay to ensure that your review is attached to the correct rental property.
Holiday rental reviews collected via the VRBO website (formerly Homeaway) and syndicated to the Tripadvisor website are not currently subject to Tripadvisor’s standard moderation processes.

Perfect Palm Cove experience
This property is perfectly located at the quieter end of the esplanade but within a short walk of facilities and great balcony views. The apartment is a good size and the full size fridge and walk in shower a bonus. Kitchen was functional with all appliances working well. The atmosphere is casual and very Cairns. Full credit to on site managers who made us feel welcome. Walking the nearby jetty is a daily must do as are the beach walks. Old footpath trees provide the perfect setting and shade making for pleasant walking conditions too. Plenty of good restaurants nearby and a range of cuisines to suit every taste.

Casual friendly budget
The rooms had everything we needed. The pool was okay but not the best pool in the area in terms of suitability for the young ones. We got what we paid for in terms of the accommodation. We were the only ones staying at the property due to it being the wet season in fnq. My kids loves the accommodation though and were very happy

Ideal
My wife and i had a wonderful time at Marlin Waters Palm Cove. Owners/managers, Rhonda and Chris are very knowledgeable about al the day trips, sights and tours, and best days to do them. They organised anything we needed. The surf club next door is terrific for a quick casual meal. Straight across the road to the sea and safe swimming area, is perfect so we could swim several times a day without any effort. All the rooms have lovely balconies to sit and appreciate the views and sounds of the ocean. I always book directly with the venue, i always get a good deal. We loved it. Rhonda and Chris are fun, and obviously enjoy what they do.

Very comfortable and excellent location
Our one bedroom apartment was very spacious and well appointed. Right on William Esplanade, the beach is at your doorstep and there is no shortage of places to eat in the immediate vicinity. Rhonda and Chris were very welcoming and able to provide plenty of advice about local attractions. Would be more than happy to return.

Good position but lacking character and modern fittings.
The best thing about Marlin Waters is it's position in the main street, overlooking the ocean. It is , however, situated behind public toilets and next to the Surf Club- potentially very noisy during peak season and at weekends. It is clean and tidy but lacks modern appliances and looks tired inside and out - the pool did not inspire us to take a dip !

Relaxing
We stayed at Marlin Waters for 10nights. The apartment was situated on the beach front close to the beach, numerous restaurants and is well serviced by various transport. Rhonda was an excellent host helping us with tour bookings, hire car and points of interest to visit. The apartment was very clean and had everything we needed. The bed/pillows were a little hard but overall we were very happy and would highly recommended Marlin Waters. Thanks Chris and Rhonda we'll be back

Stayed in a part of this owned by different idenity but run by Marlin waters desk
Was a magic spot with great views and handy to the beach.The unit was very comfortable and had all we needed.The desk people of Marlin Waters were very helpful as well.However we have found places that offer separate bedrooms eg apartment type to be very expensive in Australia compared to rest of world.We found this was the only place out of 10 we stayed in this trip that charged for wireless
