Located on a tropical island in Great Barrier Reef Marine Park, Fitzroy Island Resort is located between the beach and the rainforest. Cairns is 45 minutes away by ferry.

Fitzroy Island is a great destination. It is relaxing and there is plenty to do. Foxy's bar is a great spot for a pub meal and a drink. Our room was good but it is hard to know what facilities you may have in your 1 bedroom apartment. We had a full kitchen and larger fridge but the dishwasher was missing. We have stayed in a similar room about a decade ago and it was better presented. Snorkelling was great fun with a great diversity of fishes and regenerating coral.
This eco-resort offers luxurious suites on a tropical island in the Great Barrier Reef. Set amid lush rainforest, the spacious suites feature private balconies with either rainforest or pool views.
Centrally located at the northern end of Cairns iconic waterfront Esplanade, Crystalbrook Riley features 311 stylish rooms and suites, three restaurants and bars including Cairns’ highest rooftop bar,...

Great welcome when we arrived, the room was large enough for the 3 of us to not be on top of each other. Beds weren't too bad (my own is so much nicer lol)
Experience a sense of luxury at Hilton Cairns, located on the Cairns Esplanade.

For the price point, the location was great with a fantastic view of the ocean. The hotel is maybe 3-4 blocks from the edge of the main tourist area. It was a short walk for me (~10 mins) and worth saving over $150 a night. I did a few different tours while in Cairns and all the ones with pick-up picked me up from the hotel. The room was clean and the bed very comfortable. I had problems with the onsite laundry, but the front desk attendant was very helpful and resolved my problem immediately.
Located in the heart of Cairns, and just 10 minutes' drive from the Cairns International Airport, Hides Hotel offers affordable accommodations, a 5 minutes' walk from The Esplanade.
Park Regis City Quays consists of modern, fully self-contained apartments and hotel rooms, nearby the Reef Hotel Casino, night markets, the City Esplanade, Cairns Marina and Reef Fleet Terminal.

Resort is a bit tired and needs an upgrade bathrooms etc have lots of build up over the years but view is to die for-more dining options would be good given you are staying on an island.zephyr restaurant is great.nuddie beach is lovely and worth the 20 minute walk. There are school camps there which is great for the kids and lots of day trippers

Fitzroy is a very small island that is a day trip for most people. An overnight stay is an opportunity to experience the island and resort after the day trippers have departed, but two nights will exhaust the available restaurant options and three nights would be too many. Note that although the apartments have fully fitted kitchens, the only store on the island stocks NO food items. Smh. Note also that the few walks available will only suit the very fit and able bodied. A big shout-out to Ali who provides kayaks and SUP from the beachfront. These and the glass bottom boat are recommended.

Bring your own snorkelling gear as hiring it for 3 days is equal to buying it. Food is expensive and the general store is really limited. Bring your own cereal/breakfast to help reduce costs.
Staff are fantastic.
If you have young kids, bring beach shoes as the the sand is very rough and mostly broken coral.
The gym is for staff only, which is strange.
Things to do are limited if its raining, bring cards or games to play.

I loved the beaches, loved being able to swim in safe areas and snorkel along over corals and turtles! Nature walks, Foxy's bar vibe, enchanting resort restaurant, great resort swimming pool, and last but not least, always lovely, helpful staff everywhere! Just the place to chill out!! Must take a pair of thongs/flip-flops.

the best part was the pristine water, Roxy Bar, the Summit hike and Lighthouse hike. Water is beautiful, however potential for box jelly-fish and irukandji stings, which can be fatal. Stinger suits are recommended during season. Pool was okay, although not very deep. Games room is okay but couldn't get coin change as wasn't working. Getting some cash from ATM failed one night due to wi-fi dropout. Most things to buy will cost you 3 times mainland cost for similar product. No dancing allowed currently. Try to get a balcony room - top floor best - or a beach bungalow. Not a great deal to do after nine pm. No cable, small TV. Nice though for quite nights on the beach. Take your own food, wine etc, unless money not an issue.

Amazing location, the only resort on the island! Very nice pool and the resort organizes a lot of great trips that you can see the reef. The only issue is that the phones in the room are not working and the WiFi keeps disconnecting so in case of anything there is no contact with the hotel. The restaurant - definitely a must go, the best food ever.
Fitzroy Island resort is basically paradise. The room is clean and comfortable, the resort has good facilities and plenty of staff on hand. I had cause to be helped by the staff on multiple occasions and they handled my issues very well.
Getting to Fitzroy Island is part of the adventure and charm - loved the ferry across from Cairns. We saw enough of the island to realise that on its day, it would be a stunning place to be.
