An easy drive north west of Cairns International Airport, our modern tropical home is nestled in rainforest with beautiful views from every window. Tourist attractions including the Great Barrier Reef and Skyrail (a unique gondola ride through world heritage rainforest) are close by. The situation of the house in the rainforest is very secluded but also has wonderful views from every window of the gardens, the rainforest and the swimming pool. The house is also close to Kuranda Village and an easy drive to Cairns. The fully self contained unit has a private entry with an undercover carpark at the front door. It features a queen sized bed, bathroom, refrigerator, oven, toaster, electric jug and frypan and a vegetable steamer.

It adjoins a sitting room which has a TV with Foxtel connection and a snooker/pool table. This room opens on to a large undercover patio overlooking the rainforest, tropical gardens and a lovely in-ground pool. Swimming pool, snooker/pool table, grounds and gardens. I will be only too happy to welcome you and show you the house plus share with you plenty of things to do and see during your stay. I will be staying in the upper level of the house and will be only too happy to assist in any way possible. We are located close to Kuranda Village (a 20 minute walk) and an easy drive to Cairns, and the Atherton Tablelands. It would be best to have a vehicle during your stay but there is a bus service that travels past the property that can take you to Cairns or Kuranda. We would be happy to assist with pick up and can also make recommendations to assist you during your stay. Kuranda is a world heritage area and the village is a famous tourist town. Where we are situated is a perfect place to enjoy all that this special area has to offer. Welcome to our Studio - We trust your stay is a pleasant one. Below are some phone numbers for your reference: Majella mobile - ******** 478 Susan (our daughter lives on the property) - ******** 752 Emergency number (Ambulance/fire/police) - 000 The street address to advise them is 118 Myola Road, Kuranda and the closest cross road is Kennedy Highway Kuranda Medical Clinic - private doctors 33 Barang Street Kuranda - 40 937118 There is a well stocked pharmacy - 16 Thongon Street Kuranda - in the village as well as a supermarket - Kuranda Foodworks - 16 Thooree Street Kuranda and a Post Office. Internet - The Studio has wifi connection and the details with the network name and password are on the front of the fridge. Please ensure you put this back on the fridge before you leave. While we have a substantial internet package, we would appreciate it if you could use the downloads respectfully. Toilet - Our toilet system is an onsite sewerage treatment system so please do not put any feminine hygiene items in the toilet. We have provided a bin for your use. Hot Water System - We have a solar hot water system which provides plenty of hot water for normal family use. If we have a few overcast days and are using a fair amount of hot water it may not be as hot as it normally is. We have a booster switch which we will turn on as necessary. Television - We have free to air tv with lots of local stations and we also have Foxtel. To operate the system you need to turn on both of the controllers. On the long black Sony controller you need to select INPUT on the top left hand side which will bring up all the options down the left side. To select Foxtel you need to go to HDMI 3 then press the centre button on the controller and then use the Foxtel controller to change the channel. If you need us to run through anything please give us a yell. The Pool - is cleaned by a contractor who comes on a regular basis to service the pool. If there is anything you think is unusual you can call me on my mobile. Driveway - The driveway is access to this house as well as my daughter’s house so you may meet someone coming in the other direction when you are driving in or out. Please drive slowly and stay on the concrete tracks. General Waste and Recycling - There is a bin in the cupboard under the kitchen sink for general waste. When this is full could you please drop the bag into the black bin with the yellow lid at the top of the driveway. There is a small plastic bucket with a lid in the cupboard under the kitchen bench for food scraps. You can empty this in the big black compost in the back yard in front of the undercover carport. There is a recycling bin outside the studio for your bottles, tins, etc, could you please rinse items before you put them in the bin. As a family we are very dedicated to recycling and would appreciate it if you could follow this easy process during your stay. For longer stays - Rubbish collection day for general waste is Monday morning, so please put your waste into the large green, yellow lid bin at the top of the driveway in time for collection which is around 10am.

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.
