We booked at Ellis Beach for a night, without studying the details offered carefully enough. The resort is basically a caravan and camping area along the beach, with the main highway on the other side ensuring continuous traffic noise. The bungalows are extremely basic, cramped and with mediocre furnishings, in what look like portable buildings. Bungalow is a somewhat grand... more

My wife and I loved our oceanfront bungalow at Ellis Beach. The bungalow itself is pretty basic with a bathroom/shower, kitchen, living area and sleeping area and the decor and furniture are nothing special. But the views and access to the beach are amazing. I would wake up in the morning and read on the front porch as the sun... more

We stayed at Ellis Beach in an Oceanfront Bungalow for 13 days and just had a ball. The place is a caravan park but we felt as if we were the only ones in paradise. The beach is to die for and the weather was gorgeous. Ellis Beach is a beautiful place and is located on the main highway equal... more

We spent 3 nights in Cairns at Ellis Beach Bungalows on part of our honeymoon with our very own beachfront bungalow. The staff was very accommodating to our very late arrival (1am) and kept a key and a map for us to find our bungalow in the dark. The area is well-maintained, but the ocean was only swimmable in a... more

My husband & I visited Ellis Beach for 5 days during a 2 week trip to Australia. We didn't know what to expect as this was our first trip to this country. The staff was very helpful at booking us a snorkling tour as well as suggesting other places to visit in the area. The bungalo was very basic, but... more

I stayed at Ellis Beach for two nights. It was cheap and located just steps away from the beach. This is a great budget place to stay if you don't need to be right in the centre of Cairns. It is located between Port Douglas and Cairns so it is convenient to get to the Daintree and both major tourist... more

Great place for a relaxing holiday. We spent 2 weeks & had a well deserved break. The beachfront bungalows were very clean & serviced regularly. With the amazing ocean views we found it very hard to leave. All staff from management to cleaner's were very honest, friendly & helpful. At anytime they were always happy to help with any queries... more

Ellis beach is without a doubt the best beach Cairns has to offer. Beaware howerver this is a caravan park, not a resort as it is sometimes portrayed. If you are considering a stay there consider renting a car also, as the only place to eat near by is what I will call "less then hygenic" and you may find... more

After visiting Sydney and the Outback we were very much looking forward to our relaxing stay at Ellis Beach. The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful. We easily set up a snorkling trip on the reef. The bungalows are very clean and are equipped with everything you need for your stay. The beach is absolutely incredible! We were there for... more
