    The location is very good with a good view. The unit has everything you’d need for a short stay. However, the interior could use some sprucing up with fresh paint & some pictures especially in the bedroom. The furniture is too big for the space in the living area. Otherwise we enjoyed our stay.

    This is a nice clean functional unit. The location could not be better. Everything is right outside the ground floor door.

    The property is VERY difficult to find after daylight hours and even with local help. The communication regarding arrival information via email or text was lacking.

    The location of this property is excellent. We could see the fireworks at the Esplanade on New Year's eve directly from the balcony. However, the air conditioner in the apartment is not effective enough to make the temperature comfortable during the very hot and humid summer days.

    View and location are amazing! Unit needs update as is worn. Towels old and ripping, chairs with dirty cushions, walls need paint, etc.

    A spacious and very comfortable condo for three adults. Enjoyed the balcony and view very much! Washing machine was great but would have found a dryer to be very helpful. Location is close to everything!!

    Very comfortable, well appointed apartment with lovely views, and in a great location above the Cairns night markets and many eateries. We really appreciated the opportunity to use the washing machine after our adventure to Cape York with Outback Spirits - highly recommend this apartment to those visiting Cairns for a short or longer stay.

    What a fantastic 5 days in Cairns! The location totally made our stay! The convenience of the apartment to everything was perfect. Kitchen fully equipped to cook up meals with the kids, night markets downstairs to grab a variety of food for all. Shopping trolley to do a Woolies shop and coffee downstairs after an early morning sunrise walk for mum. Really cannot fault anything and totally recommend this place, we’ll be back. Thanks Darryl and the BreakFree staff

    Being able to walk out the front and the back doors and have a range of dining options was very good. We enjoyed watching the ferris wheel and it's light display. The unit is very comfortable and has everything you will need for a pleasant stay.

    Darrell's apartment is a little gem ,located right in the heart of Cairns ,you don't need a car unless you plan on leaving the city itself. Darrell's apartment has it all, clean, self contained which is always a must if staying for at least a week, not to mention the amazing views. So if you want to tick all the box's then I would recommend this beauty, we would definitely stay here again, also very easy instructions to check into the unit as well ,as some times this can be the tricky part but not this one , so simple.
