Ivan and Lorena have a beautiful B&B in the rainforest right next to a mountain stream. It's quiet and secluded (except for exotic wild bird calls), and the rooms are comfortable and well designed. The breakfast is exceptional, the best we had in Australia. They are also helpful with excursion arrangements, and in the evening there is a lovely salt water pool for relaxing. Surprisingly, given the tropical location, there were no mosquitoes. Overall, our best accommodation in our three-week sojourn!

My parents in law stay at the B&B for a couple of days in April 2010. They have very poor english but that wasn't a problem thanks to Ivan and Lorina's kindness. They took really care of them, making sure that they were enjoying their stay and sending us emails almost everyday to keep us up-to-date. My parents in law had a really great time there.
We will for sure stay at the B&B for our first trip in Cairns!
Thanks Ivan and Lorina!

This is simply the best B&B! Fabulous location, the best breakfasts, hot tub & pool, what more could you ask for? It is a perfect place to stay - I cannot recommend Cairns Reef 'n Rainforest highly enough. Ivan goes out of his way to ensure that your stay is the best - his advice on trips is second to none and he takes all of the worry out of booking as he does it for you!
I hope you are lucky enough to stay at the Cairns Reef 'n Rainforest - it made this part of our holiday.

We loved it here. The quiet, rain forest atmosphere, the lovely, clean saltwater pool, the charming family pets, the excellent food and most especially, the extraordinary hosts with their genuine, warm hospitality and painstaking attention to detail... my husband and I enjoyed every minute of our stay. No need went unmet. Ivan and Lorina, along with their 2 delightful children, AJ and Samantha, have created one of the most special places imaginable to experience Cairns -- simply not to be missed!

We actually stayed in early 2005, but it was such a memorable trip that even all these years later, I had to post a review... I have utter confidence that nothing has changed. I would return in a moment! Though my Australian husband sadly passed away in late 2007, I will always have the cherished memories of our stay in Cairns.
